This LED light is perfect for growing mushrooms at home, thanks to the fact that it emulates the Daylight solar-light spectrum. I attached this light and plug into an lightweight entension cord, then used double-sided tape to attach the light to be about 1 foot above my grow chamber SGFC. It's perfect. I turn it on when I wake up and the suns up, and I turn it off at night when I go to bed, it doesn't produce much heat, and doesn't use a lot of electricity, its perfection. Highly reccomend this light.
