LED Lights.. What?
    #23821120 - 11/10/16 08:52 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

So I have been reading through threads about LED lights and have everyone say not that important and then Rodger Rabbit says he uses LEDS and so I was wondering.. If money didnt play into the equation and they were all the same price.. What would be the best lights to use for Mushrooms?  And why are the All Blue or Blue/Red LED lights you would use for indoor plants not work well for mushrooms? Is it because they are a fungus and not plants?

Please let me know!

Thanks!

12/12
6500 kelvin.
Light does not need to be intense or right on the fruits.
I've used bulbs in my converted room for a few years that are 3-5 feet away.
From my interpretation it seems the most crucial role is to be in the blue spectrum (spring sun color) as well as be on a 12/12 schedule.
I've left my lights on for a day or two at a time when taking little journeys with no noticeable ill effects.

He asked if money was no object. Light is only a small important to them. In my green house the lights were on the left side if left on 24/7 they would pin and go straight for the light. U just know that at 4 feet alway a 6500k light will heat up a sub of three inches 4 degrees if left on 8 hours and cools the same rate mimicking the ground. 12/12 is easier

Uhhhh no, I don't know that man.
I've seen you spew a bunch of bullshit, but if you expect me to believe a CFL at 48" increases soil temp by 4 degrees I have a bridge I'll sell you.
I am a university trained horticulturist and am well aware of the effect different bulbs have in a controlled environment agriculture setting (CEA, it was my major).
You are straight up WRONG and full of trash, stop spewing lies man.
I've read your posts and your ratings and you are a rash on the nut sac of this community.
Either get educated or stop pretending.  All the info you need is at your finger tips as well as everyone else, a quick google proves you wrong in 90% of your posts kiddo.
Piss off.
Dick
