Question regarding lighting during colonization and fruiting.
    #25149647 - 04/18/18 10:11 PM (6 years, 8 months ago)

Hey there.

I've learned that natural lighting > artificial lighting.

My pf tek jars are colonizing sitting on a shelf in my living room.

They enjoy natural indirect light but since they are not inside a closet or anything, they are also also reached by artificial light when i turn them on as it gets dark.

They are only in complete darkness when i go to bed.

Question is: should i shelter them from the artificial light?

The jars are now in colonization phase but the same question goes for then i start fruiting them in a SGFC.

Thanks very much.

Natural light is only better than your standard spectrum light bulbs.

Direct light from Daylight spectrum bulbs (6500 k) are far superior to using indirect light from your window.

hamloaf: thanks man, you're coming to the rescue once again.

Mr. Tiger: thanks as well for taking time to help us beginners.
