Yeah There isnt to much light that gets to them. Both windows r covered and the doors partially closed so its pretty dark all the time. Ill actually put up a pic of what the out side of it looks like. We got a section of room sectioned off with plastic sheeting to keep the heat and humidity up. Theres a small ceramic heater ( lol no its not any where near the plastic) inside and a humidifyer.

So i checked the jars tonight and they havnt changed much but theres about 4 jars that have visable growth. Its very small and light patches but there goin. Temp was kinda high (90F) so i turned it down and is better now so hopefully they pick up and start growin a little more. Ill try and get pics within the next few days. Not enough to really take a pic of tonight lol

be careful of incubation temps...too warm will invite contams...I just put my jars on the shelf at room temp in the spare room...takes longer to colonize but the contam rate is worth the few extra days...hth

Just checked on the mushies and holy crap! Growth outta no where lol. the amazon, bt, and alacabenzi all have growth goin on (all growth is about the same as the pic. Pic is of amazon). The creeper jars dont have any visable growth but hopefully they start up soon. Temps were 85F and humidity was at 16% so i filled up the humidifyer and got that goin.

For sure lol the only reason iv checked up a couple times on em was to just make sure the temps werent to high. They been freakin me out a little but its pretty much spot on now. There isnt much light that gets to the room anyhow. Both windows r covered and the doors shut so even n the day its pretty damn dark lol. Not using any lights now but iv heard a 6500k spectrum (daylight) bulbs work when there fruiting and i got a couple layin around from my plant so i think im gonna run one of those. Any one else got suggestions for lights when it comes time for them?
