when mycelium poke the casing layer and is covered with more casing material, -then put in FC-, how "feel" light?
will be preferable not cover the pokes in order to allow the tissue that reached surface transmit information to the underground?

That's why growers who use a very bright fluorescent light in the higher part of the color spectrum have much better pinsets and yields than those who use ambient room, or worse yet, only a few minutes a day of dim light. The light should be bright enough to penetrate well into the casing layer, which should also be loose and airy. RR

You can find CFL (Compact Fluorescent Light) bulbs that will fit in your regular light bulb socket ...... "Daylight" ..... 6,500K is the color I use and can be easily found.
Good Luck MAN

I don't know if there are Walmarts where you are .... ?
Walmart has a work light with a nice aluminum reflector .... cheap ... like $7 .... has a clamping base so you can attach it to something and direct the light right at your project or projects.
I am into the 'penetration' (light) thing RogerRabbit mentions .... so I 'mount' my light right over my FC ....
 Photo of light mounted on plexiglas before the plexiglas is mounted on the FC.
Hope something like this works for you, MAN
