Dude, get off your high horse
There is more than one correct method and ive been doing my way for 5 years with no problems.
And I am not going by your registration date, I am going by your overall ignorance. "out dated info," please.
I am still waiting to see some actual proof of people advising 12/12 light cycle during colonization. I dont buy it.

dude, thers no benefit to keeping colonizing jars/bags in the dark. if storing them in daylight can be beneficial to mycelium (and thats what RR is saying) - why not give it a try?

You can however go off the amount of noobish posts you have. Questions that killerpicklez wouldn't have to ask Either way, yes light in beneficial to mycelium at all stages of growth. I haven't read to much about making the mycelium colonize faster but it does help with pinning according to RR. And that is ambient light nothing about putting them on a direct 12/12 schedule.
Tap water however is good to use, so where you heard otherwise I don't know? I only use tap water and so do many many other people with no adverse effects. So why would you tell someone to go spend money when they got perfectly fine tap water to use? Kind of not giving the best advice are we?
By the way, all the advice you give is quoted from RR so why the hell would someone give you a good rating for that? Your sig should say "If RR's advice helped you, rate RR please".
OP you are on the right track, keep doing what your doing

No one is saying that it is beneficial in any way to keep them in complete darkness. Dont twist my words
The other guy was saying about putting them on a 12/12 light cycle. That is completely unnecessary

You guys really need to stop ridin' RRs cock so hard, its really pathetic. If you don't have advice from experience, shut the fuck up. You guys seem to think he can do no wrong. And don't get it twisted, the man is an accomplished Mycologist and I have a lot of respect for him, and value his advice..
Its just so gay to see you guys take what he says and ram it down peoples throat as gospel, when you mis-interpret half of it, and have no actual experience with the methods you promote so much. I didn't see one post in here that elaborates on lighting aspects and mycelial growth.
Picklez has been around for a hot minute, and is a motherfuckin OG here and on Growery, show some respect. Instead of givin' the standard "well RR said this, and that" blah blah. Why don't you go do the research to see exactly what the real truth is. Then maybe people may be willing to accept your advice when you actually give ADVICE and not just regurgitating the load RR shot down your throat.
END RANT.
Picklez, the truth is, mycelium do benefit from light while colonizing, but in my research, I have found that direct light will actually slow them down to a pace that's slower than total dark colonization. And this is probably what led Stamet's to the conclusion that total dark is best in the first place. Basically what you want for them is a spot that receives normal daylight, but just a mild amount of indirect lighting, anything more and it will slow you down.

Influence and Diesel- I much appreciate the words. It's nice when other people with experience and who know what they are talking about can pop in and give new growers accurate advice

I dont have nearly enough exp but the little i do i can tell you this:
The last few days i was waiting for the myc to finish colonizing the bottom of a jar. I kept a visual log of how fast it spread. When i kept it in the Normal room light it seemed to slow(notvery much growth was visible. I.e. It didnt expand much more.) After i added light back in, it seemed to finish the next day. There is no set schedule or a reason to do it that way. On when i gp to bed and off when im up mostly.
Granted some of the edible strains(my pink oyster) end up trying to fruit before completely colonizing(no theres no contam)
Its just a tiny bit of info but ill have to do more that way and compare my notes. No reason to fix what hasnt broken for you.

...to have some fun? Nobody knows
Anything I say or talk about is strictly for my own search of knowledge and to satisfy my thirst of curiosity.

So if you lived in Mexico, would you use the water there?

I know I'm going to get some criticism for that but I'm not to overly concerned with it. If I find something that has helped you in some way (or even cleard something up for you)and it's from my own experience (or from someone else), I believed I've helped in some way. And that in it's self should get a rating. Even if the word were not spoken directly out of my mouth.

Thanks!! I knew there was niceness somewhere in this post (I'm not any OP, but that okay )

Thanks Picklez. And I should show a little more respect towards you. I see now that you have over 13 thousand post. So you've been 'round the block a few times (probable more than me). And One day, I may need advice from you and because of how I was, I may not be able to get your opinion. Anyways, it's nice to see some of the ppl who have been here for awhile still around

Where did I "ride RR's cock" in my post? I said the same shit you did. Move around

I wasn't trying to point fingers, thats why I specified it was a rant. All over the whole site its always RR said this, RR said that. I think its stupid, when we have a gangload of good cultivators on the board that are worth listening to. He is not the only knowledgeable guy on the site.

And that a good point to make. But sometimes, when you reference back to something, a certain one sticks out. But it doesn't necessarily have to be from RR. I've seen lots of good info from others on here!!
