12/12 lights off schedule question
    #23382631 - 06/26/16 12:13 AM (7 years, 7 months ago)

Hello All,

My first post and my first grow. I have some Panaeolus Cambodginiensis Sandose mycelium taking hold of some rye berries right now on day 7. My background is in cannabis where the lights off period must be complete darkness and cannot be interrupted.

Assuming I make to fruiting.....

How dark does it have to be during lights off?

Can the darkness period be interrupted at all?

I ask because my grow area has very dim lighting 24/7

My areas pretty dim with me using my table lamp and the tv and all that and it doesnt seem to bother it, and my lights arent exactly on schedule with the sun so they still get dim daylight

My point you shouldnt have a problem with the dim lights or at keast i havent been

I personally just keep the blinds on the one window in my grow room open, and they get plenty of ambient light, or so it seems. 14 hours between sunrise and sunset here.

Nothing wrong with a little light imo.  I just leave my jars on a shelf in a doorless closet.

You know in nature the moon gets pretty bright sometimes... :eek:

Sometimes the yields in nature aren't so great either though.

Overall I haven't been memorably disappointed with yields with a little ambient light pollution.  You will be fine. 

It is really ridiculously hard once you have colonized spawn to not get some mushrooms one way or the other with patience.  Left spawn in the jar for months and forgot about it in a dark closet?  You'll get shrooms.

Freaking out because your monotub hasnt fruited yet?  No worries.  Go stick it somewhere you will forget about it for a month.  You'll get shrooms.

I have emptied spent buckets on some gravel in the dry heat of our desert summer and found cubes growing from them a few weeks later.  They had fruited and dried right on the spent sub.  Ive never picked dry mushrooms before but I ate them that day figuring it was a sign and didn't regret it.

Mushrooms are not like plants, they get their energy from the substrate and oxygen, not much different from us.

You can give mycelium irregular light cycles and it still performs well. Some even left their light on for days on end and still getting a harvest. The closer you can get to a 12/12 light cycle is obviously the better but don't split hairs on the fine details, the mycelium doesn't care much for them.

Edit: Don't forget to give your pans plenty of fresh air come fruiting, they are different from cubes. Don't mist the pins directly either.

Thanks all for the replies.

If I make to fruiting then I guess I'll give it a go and see if I'm satisfied with the results.
