Will this grow set up work?

im gonna post this on shroomery and growery to see what yall both think. So here are a few pictures of my set up and room. its basically a walk i n closet,(disregard the clothes im moving that.) and i have two T8 set up with 6500k indirect light for my mushrooms but also right now for veg when my plants sprout soon. I also have it pretty enclosed so there is no real Fresh air exchange from a outside source. I leave the bottom of my zip wall unzipped from time to time to let air circulate. I was thinking of putting some type of flexipipe to the window from the room to get some type of air in and out but the outside air is so cold that aint really worth it cuz then ill need a heater or some sorts.
    
Basically what im trying to figure out that i came across... is, can i grow canna and shrooms in the same grow room? it seems plausible but i came across a friend that grows canna and said that the soil has contams in it and the plant can host contams throughout its whole life cycle. Even the dirt itself has contams in it. So id rather grow my shrooms than canna. you think its absolutely that big of a problem?
 here is another problem i came across. i planted a few seeds of some random plant and it got fuzzy cobweb mold around the soil. I read that you can prevent mold by sprinkling ground cinnemon in the soil. Which would help im assuming. But at the same time id rather not get my shrooms contam. I really wanna grow cannabis now that i have the opportunity and about 50 seeds. Yet i dont wanna ruin my shrooms. Any suggestions?
and heres my dog...

because i dont know whats in those cups, is that monotub ready for fruiting? i cant tell by the pic but it doesnt look its colonized and there is polyfil in it.
any room you grow boomers in just needs a fan that moves air in the room not pointed at the tub

My first inspiration that got me to think of this was, mushrooms give off co2 and take in oxygen, plants take in co2 and give off oxygen.. perfect relationship.. my two favorite things? dabs and fungi

Don't put your mushroom fruiting chamber on the ground, elevate it a foot. also, i wouldn't even put it in the same room as you have plants - trichoderma is a beneficial part of growing plants if i am not mistaken, but not good for fungi cultivation.

Also with that being said, could i actually just have my FC in my room then and not worry about it being in the grow room for canna? i could probably just set in in the corner of my room, my room is very sterile as well.

fruiting isnt a sterile procedure so it doenst matter if you sterilize the room. the substrate is contam resistant now the myc has taken over.
also that sub doesnt look 100% colonized to me. what was your ratio of sub/spawn

I fucked up a little here and there :/ First i dropped 80% coir 20% verm as the substrate in the tub with 6quarts of PE spawn. let it colonize 100%  ... Then i dropped a black gold seedling mix for the casing(i know i wasnt supposed to cuz of the dolomite lime. But i think itll survive due to what ive read around)  thats the first way i fucked up is by using the wrong casing. ill actually buy the jiffy mix this time or make it my own with peat and other materials I've read around and saved a few teks to check out.
Next i fucked up a little by putting a 1" layer of casing. later down the road a few days i removed like half the casing til it was about 1/4 inch. then ever since then i saw daily progression. and now its basically almost fully colonized.
The reason i fruited it, i read around and found you can fruit it at 20% colonized after you case, or you can fruit right away. or even you dont need a casing layer and can straight up fruit right as it hits 100% colonization.
Its fruited now and showing great signs of humidty and FAE and colonization., doesnt look contam to me.
 2days later

2 days later


and today

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21998166
but yeah, as the poster stated above, if you get a contamination now, the chances are it was in your spawn.
call me crazy though, i just don't like working with mushrooms where trich is growing. 
as for elevating your monotub, you can take a phone book or something and put it on top. i like chairs

no i did not. read it wasnt neccesary but will be benefitial. yet i dont wanna keep adding more wrong casing if the casing isnt really neccesary from the beginning.

I'm gonna assume you are growing Cubensis, in which case, why did you choose to add a casing layer? It is not required or needed for this species.

Lol, did you really have to quote me? i'm right above you.

Haha and yeah im gonna do a side by side case, no case with my next 3 Albino A+. Thats why im worried about growing canna. Ill be harvesting 1-4lbs in the next few months and probably more during the whole cannabis life time. And i could give a shit about canna compared to mushrooms. Id rather not have nakisaki bombs dropped on my head randomly. And yes i cased cuz of PE being blobby first flush.
