about a week ago i heard someone talking here that they reduced the light to their casings to 5 min per day and it increased his total vield for that particular flush. i dont relly believe that it would increase it but that does go to show that they need very little light. anything with a good blue spectrum is what you want but 2 or 3 hours a day is enough. if you wanna do 16 hours thats probably not gonna hurt anything though, but i dont think its necessary.

well if you think about it when do you go picking mushies in the wild. on a warm night arond 2 am after it just rained the day before or that day. so my friend has never worried about lightthey get minimal amounts of light (only when he takes the lids off to check them. and he gets great results. couldn't be happier
