RE: Pink oyster mushrooms fruiting from the buckets

So cool. Going for an interesting agricultural symbiosis here. What size filter will you use to keep the spores out?
And another question... Do you plan on eating them after the plants are done or do you have to keep eating (or at least picking them) during the whole project to promote new fruiting? In other words, do you need fresh fruiting continually for optimal CO² production or is one flush fine?
I guess that's all part of what you're trying to find out with this project...

Thank you, it would be quite interesting if this all worked. The spores are quite large, so a standard hepa filter would suffice. I could go with something as simple as a car intake cone filter if I wanted.
Really no idea how I will harvest them, or if I should as they grow. If it makes more co2 by harvesting them and having fresh fruiting bodies form then yeah I would love to. Pink Oyster mushrooms can be cooked into many meals.
This is all my first time doing this, so we will just have to play it by ear as it comes along.
