I've just started growing, and have had no issue using my kind k5 xl750. I'm also supplementing with an LED 6500k bulb from home depot, though I prob don't need it.

I set the kind to 100% blue light, 0% red light, and 45% white and UV light.

amidogen is absolutely right in all aspects of their post (first grow, first post, and rr's extensive research). All in saying is I already had the kind light, and am using it without issue. More important is fae and evaporation as stated these are the main pinning triggers.

The light also works great for plants. This is my reason for testing it, since I want to grow fungi along side my plants since one breaths oxygen and one breaths carbon dioxide.

I don't claim to be an expert, and have more experience with plants then fungi. Just stating what works for me. Just thinking outside the box a bit.

It's up to you. You can go with the advice of someone who just made their first post and has no previous grows to judge their lack of "issues" against, or you can go with trusted cultivators:

Light is required not only for pinning, but for proper mushroom development as well.  Mushroom mycelium derives energy from light.  Mushrooms grown without sufficient lighting are weak, thin and have little weight compared to mushrooms grown with proper lighting.  That's why I have over 400 watts of 6500 Kelvin LED lighting in my grow room.  It's as bright as daylight in there, and the walls are painted bright white to reflect the light around the room.

With proper lighting you get healthy growth to it's fullest potential.

Without light you don't.

Light has been proven beneficial during all stages of mycellium growth. Mushrooms like mammals have a circadian rhythm.

You want ambient/indirect light(on a 12/12 schedule preferably) for colonization and consolidation.

You want direct/intense 6500K light on a 12/12 schedule for fruiting.




Maybe the guy's setup mimics daylight. That's really what you want. But in the end, it's your call. I'd take the TCs' advice and spend the $5 :shrug:




Thanks for the info, will do so.

Thanks for the info, I have a kindled also that's not being used wanted to see if I could put it to use, I'll definitely experiment with it on a smaller scale.

Just finished my first flush with pf cakes and averaging 6g dry per cake which according to other posts seems to be OK. But as also stated, I don't have any other grows to personally compare to... But I'll definitely be doing more grows and changing variables so I have more data to share next time. Guess all i can say is sorry for being new, but at least I can only be new once lol

I really appreciate the constructive criticism, and you're right, KISS is always the best. I just don't want to be "that guy" that speaks but doesn't back up what I'm saying, and def don't want to lead anyone down the wrong roads. LEDs just have fascinated me since I read the NASA data on growing plants for food in space.

This forum has so much info and I'm just hoping to learn as much as I can and be able to give back to the community when I can.

People have been using leds with good results lately. If it's in the right spectrum of 6500k it should work. I know liloldme who is a member here used them in stealth boxes with great results.

One thing to note is that lilolme has been growing for longer than most people here have been driving. Yes he makes a good stealth grow. But at the same time he doesn't grow like that most of the time. At the end of the day he dials in like the rest of us do.

I'm not saying LED can't work. But they are a greater expense and easier for the novice to get wrong. Anything advocated by Anne Halonium should be seen as hard :wink:

I use 7W LED strips, no problems. For the most part, any light will work, just as long as the mushrooms have it they will fruit. But since light is a pinning trigger, the more watts you have, the better the pinset can get. On the other hand, if you are going to put the LEDs inside the tub, you have to be careful as more wattage means more heat.

I hate the word pinning trigger with conjunction to light. I think we should all change it to pinning supplement lol

I hate the word trigger period. It's a tropic response to conditions that are either met or not met. Near as I can tell light does not initiate a pinning response at all, they pin just fine in the dark.
