Lack of Light
    #5626580 - 05/13/06 10:00 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I have family in for the weekend and probably until tues. I have had to hide my terraruim and my TiT in the corner of my room with blankets and the numerous amounts of beer boxes I collect.

I loooked today for the first time in about 2 days and the shrooms grew wayyyy taller and thicker, but the cap still is tiny. Is this because my lack of light and my no FAE for 2 days?

Light is not as neccessary as FAE after pins have been set. Cubensis is phototropic. It does not need light to grow, just to know in what direction to grow. You will also note that they will be a much lighter color than fruits grown with a light cycle. I had a nightlight burn out in one of my monotubs and didn't notice for about a week. The mushies grew a little odd, and ended up completely white, almost looked albino. I'd just stick a small light on a cheap timer and cover with various blankets/junk like I'm sure you already have done.

I was going to get a new light today but I guess the beer and weed got in the way. But they are turning the white/creamy color you were talking about...
