I wouldn’t think so. I really have no idea but somebody a while back was saying he used to do both in one room cuz it was like a little ecosystem with the shrooms and plants feeding each other oxygen and co2.

It would probably be beneficial to the plants being that they give off co2; to what degree, I dont know. That said, if you have molding issues with your plants, that could pose credible risk to your sub contaminating. I wouldnt advise it.

I was actually wondering the same thing. It just occurs to me how much money I’ve been spending on weed and Vape cartridges the last year or two. And while I would’ve never considered this three months ago before I came to this forum LOL, I feel a little more confident and growing ability since growing my current harvest of mushrooms. This is my way of saying, is there a place on this site that a lot of people post about growing marijuana? Or am I better off on another site more specializing in growing weed? If so can you tell me where? I looked through the growers forum on shroomery and it doesn’t seem like there’s much of a focus on marijuana in that section. So I’m thinking maybe I’m better served going to another site to get more information about this? Thanks!

I ask this very Q year ago. Everyone hated on me for even asking. everything that makes us boil oats and manure live in planting soil.
But let me tell you it's easy and can be done. you will have only 1 issue. Bugs!! you will have to use a completely closed grow box that you open 3-4 times per day. if you leave a bods tek container cracked at all a gnat will fly in and with in days you will have green/black mold. So keep them closed. Helps to take care of mushy's first so you dont get anything on your hands watering plants.

Well, I don’t want to hijack this thread, but since we’re sort of off on this tangent already, then I’ll ask two questions. I definitely don’t want to have an insect issue, but I’m not going to be growing outdoors. I live in New York City, and while I do have a backyard and front yard that I could technically grow in, there’s way too many neighbors sharing common spaces, and I would not grow anything that would be visible to, say law-enforcement, if they were off my property but could still see it.
So my questions are, first, if I don’t have insects in my home, as a general rule, will I be able to have a much easier time keeping bugs away from these plants, in, say, my bedroom closet? Again, I don’t have an insect problem in my house, and I don’t leave the doors and windows wide open so Insects can come in. My second question is a reiteration of one of the questions I asked above: if this site isn’t a good place to really get help, within the forum community, can anyone recommend a better site, so that I don’t disrupt the normal flow of activity here by, let’s say, posting in the Ethnobotanical Garden forum on Shroomery?

The bugs come in on everything. # 1 thing that consistantly matters in reference to controlling the worst of the uglies is airflow. Lots of airflow and especially at soil level. Don't want to make it wasy for fungal gnats (our #1 pest/enemy as mycologists) to have a larvae party in your soil? Air movement. Mites? Air movement. Etc. A closet is a good microenvironment to control (but requires temperature control oftentimes) and makes nuking your grow easy when you really have issues. Like using a sulphur burner for example... As for question 2... I always wonered what the Shroomery equivalent for cannnabis was myself...

So, let me just see if I understand this correctly. You’re basically saying that even if I don’t have bugs in my house, that somehow, just having these plants in, say my bedroom, would create them out of thin air? Or, more logically LOL would somehow create larval stage insects, that could become infestations? Because if that’s the case, then then that’s a nonstarter. I’m not doing anything that’s going to bring bugs into my house, I just won’t. Controllable or not, I’m simply not interested in “inviting them in.” Once you get them, forget about anything I might be growing, it’s just an unsanitary, nightmarish mess, and I think once insects get a foothold in your home, they’re very hard to get out.

I remember like 20 years ago I used to read a site called operationovergrow that was just like here but for weed.
I think a lot of times there’ll be bugs or eggs in the potting soil or whatever, you could cook it all though. It’s making me nervous seeing flies around now, especially with manure grows going on. It’s hard to keep bugs from finding their way or hitching a ride in anyway.

simple answer ALL ALL!!!! potting soil contain eggs only way to get 100% bug free soil is to boil it for 1 hour at 180 to kill all the eggs. but this kills all the good bactria as well as eggs so... good for mushy bad for plant.

OK, thanks, guys!
Well I think I’ve already hijacked this thread enough. If there’s no way to avoid bugs 100%, then that effectively puts the kibosh on growing indoors for me. I’d rather just buy my weed if it comes down to that. The only other alternative I can explore, and I’m not gonna get into detail here, is I live in a second floor apartment in a private house that I own. I have a ledge outside my bathroom and kitchen window that may just be big enough for me to do something in terms of growing. It’s like a second or lower roof thanks to an extension that was put on the back of my house like 30 or 40 years before my parents bought it when I was a little kid. But I think if I grew some thing on there, and I’d have to check, it may be out of the view of prying eyes, and not visible or apparent to Joe-Law if he walks into my backyard.
One more question and then I won’t bother this thread anymore LOL I have access to the lower ledge/roof, by opening my kitchen window in the back of the house, and sort of stepping out of the kitchen. It’s not actually a patio, but I probably could convert it into one if I wanted to. So the question is how hard would it be to keep bugs out of my house if I can actually grow on this ghetto patio? I’m concerned that every time I open and close the window to go out to care for these little beauties, it would invite pests into my home.

it can be done. i did it for years.
you can have a variety of biologicals all in one room. the catch is, you must have total bio control of things you bring into the room and you must have absolute god of weather environmental controls in the room also.
if its a haphazard approach,and your lucky , you might last a crop or so, but , is unsustainable as cross contamination builds.

My experience is it dries out your tubs. The circulation and extraction fans are on 24/7. So a smaller tent or something inside of it will be perfect. Don't worry to much about pests. If you check your plants and tubs daily. You should be able to catch it before it becomes an issue and make two different ways of controlling pests or disease.

There's no way to avoid bugs 100% no matter you do, including not growing anything. What you do is if something has bugs in it you throw it out or you kill the bugs. It's not some big problem that's going keep haunting you, certainly not if you get rid of the grow. It's a problem that can be solved easily should it come up.

The weed will be fine. But you need proper FAE, temps and correct (6,500k) 12/12 light for the mushrooms. 12/12 light is proper for flowering weed, but not veg which wants between 18/24 and 24/24. Also weed wants a much wider spectrum of light, tho mushers will prol do fine as long as the light includes around 6,500k. Bugs are a threat to plants but not so much a mono tub that begins with proper hydration and stays dialed in. No reason to open a correct mono till harvest.
