Help with monotub lighting needed

Hey everyone, I have a question and have searched through many threads trying to find an answer but haven't found anything yet, so I decided to write a post. I have a monotub I want to use and it is solid [non-transparent] and I want to know how the lighting would affect the fruiting. 1. Can it fruit normally in darkness? I know they need the light for what direction to grow towards, but is it necessary? 2. What lighting options are there, if you have used a similar monotub that is non see through? thanks for the replies!

Mushrooms need light. This happens when they fruit in darkness.

You need 6500k daylight. Ive seen people use led lights on the underside of the lid.. But they need a light source.

Go buy a 6500k CFL daytime bulb from your local hardware store, and buy a light fixture from your local pet store. You may not think it'll make a difference until its too late.

i find the long flourencent tubes work best. Make sure its the 6500k color. Dont use 2400K "soft white"! wrong type.
Also, nice screen name

Buy the highest wattage available, such as 100 watt "replacement" (used about 15watts actually).
Should do the trick
