Good Luck Brother

You don't need your stuff to be in the dark at any time, period. Mycelium will colonize faster when exposed to low level ambient room light on a day/night schedule. Turn up the intensity at fruiting time, but don't colonize in the dark.
In nature, spores are released into the wind to settle where they might. You can't assume that all happens in the dark. RR

I go for complete darkness wearing only underwear, gloves, and night vision goggles.
