so since the last time, ive alredy gotten an ecosystem and its alredy a day 2 of my experiment ( i alredy notice changes on the sides of the spawn). and if everything goes by a plan in a few days i should be able to start fruiting. and to do so ive got to build a light in a closet, 25 Watts of strenght. so ive found the lightbulb i needed but im not sure which one is better for use: 25 Watt G25 White Medium Incandscent Globe Light Bulb or 25 Watt G25 Clear Medium Incandscent Globe Light Bulb. the instructions in the kit stay dark on dat question. so if u no, please tell.

good. personally i think it would be better to get the white lightbulb since the light coming from it will be more smooth and soft than clear lightbulb, but im afraid that white luightbulb might porduce less light then clear lightbulb and that might effect mushroom growth critically.

You're right that the white bulb produces less light than clear bulbs. About 15% less. But it matters little, since you'll be getting a couple hundred lumens from either bulb (190/white, 220/clear). Mushrooms only use light to orient themselves, more light doesn't encourage growth. I don't know what the absolute minimum amount necessary for orientation is, but it must be extremely low, since christmas lights work fine.
will the mushrooms get retarted if i smoke weed beside them?
Not unless you climb into the fruiting chamber. Seriously, though, since smoke particles can carry contams, there is a possible issue there, but if you don't breathe directly on them, I wouldn't worry about it because established mycelium is pretty resistant.

the mushrooms will be fine. however they will slowly loose their short term memory along with you haha. and they might want a quasidilla for a snack.
