I have been wondering about lighting for the mushrooms. And there are so many diffrent opinions about whether stronge or weak or intense or whatever they need. Well, I figure since I have a little extra money Im gonna try a expirement. i plan on building a growing system that generates its own light via Panellus stipticus. Since the mushroom is active more when it is exposed to fresh air, I will creat a positive airflow acrossed the columns that I will be designing for light coverage. I think this would be a very kandy ass method for solving a light problem and being a little more nature firendly COmments, suggestions?

I apologize for the gross misspelling of that entire sentence. There are so many diffrent opinions about the requirements for light. Intensity, length of time, what spectrum...etc

There is some talk but in the end everybody says it is not very important at all, you just want diffues light. In TMC it talks of light in milliseconds a day that stimulates growth. It is not weed you are growing, where light is important.

Pan Stip won't deliver enough light to do anything as far as pinning other species. In fact, it has to be in total darkness to even see it glow.
Light intensity definitely makes a difference. You'll get a much better pinset with a few hours of bright light then you will with dim lighting. RR

from the literature Ive read about it, it glows brighter when exposed to moving fresh air, so a stream of cool air growing acrossed the column might increase the intensity. its gonna be a fun shot anyways
