    hmmm...they like less light, maybe try and put them in a shady spot...shrooms r kinda kinky...hard to tell when they r happy or sad if its not obvious...anyone have an opinion?

    Whenever I want to frag mushrooms, I purposely lower the light over them. They will stretch out towards the light and then it's easy to just use a pair of scissors to cut the stalk.

    I'm curious...did you change the lighting or location of the rock containing the mushrooms recently?
