I suspect the light is directly overhead instead of up and to one side.  This causes a reflection off the perlite and the mushrooms turn to grow that way since it's brighter.

mustve been a long day, that there is mycelium, not perlite

bahahah




Oops, meant to say mycelium.  The light reflects off it just like it reflects off perlite, thus the brain fart since both were on my feeble old mind. :wink:

ok, you just confused me, I have seen you say many times that gravity not light is the deciding factor of directional growth.




Not exactly.  Many species of mushrooms will turn and grow towards light, using that light as a source of direct or indirect energy.  What you have heard me say many times is mushrooms don't need light to "tell them" which way to grow, as mushrooms grown in total darkness will grow straight up, opposite gravity.
