do you think this will be a good enough spot for the lighting? there is no other spot in the house for the lamp to be held on. i just bought a bulb that has 5000 kelvin. good enough?

aah.  if i were you, try to put the light directly above the cake.  this will prevent the mushies growing on one side and not the other.  we learned this from experience.

6500-6700 is more aligned with the hobby, as it is a better representation of natural sunlight.  I have not studied the effects, but other users have reported back that the 5000k bulb does not do as well for the mycelium as the 6500/6700k.

get one of these

http://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-150-Watt-Incandescent-Clamp-Light-CE-300PDQ/100354511#.UkYoKKzLd9E

It will give you a lot more flexibility where to hang the light on since not only have a fairly strong clamp but also you can rotate the light in different directions

:facepalm: You learned wrong.

The cakes should pin on all sides, whether or not light is hitting all sides.

The light should be above and to the side a bit, and yes 5000K lighting is fine.
