shrooms grew like crazy too, nice and fat and in every direction

But your yields suffered. We can choose to optimize or not it is a choice each individual must make.

Maybe or maybe you just had yourself a very prolific pinning substrain.

Higher intensity light helps deliver a better pinset than lower intensity light. A few hours is cool, but most growers report better success with 12. The darkness time need not be total darkness. turning on the light to see to see what you're during your mushies 'night' won't hurt anything. RR

Highly doubtful!
No, he's right. I've seen cakes pin which have never been exposed to even a single photon. Total darkness from spore all the way to invitro pinning/fruiting. The mushrooms were totally white and albino looking, but otherwise looked like normal invitro fruits. Of course, the yield was pretty poor but each of a dozen jars produced.
