Lion's Mane + ? in the same FC

Are there any other mushrooms that would grow in the same conditions as Lion's Mane?
I tried to research but the temperatures of the others, like Cordyceps, Turkey Tail, etc. are much lower than for Lion's Mane.
I'm only looking for medicinal mushrooms that would grow in 20-25C with a humidity of 80-80%.
I only have one tent and it's dedicated to Lion's Mane but I wanted to see if I can maybe grow others in the same place for variety.

I plan to do shiitake with my lions mane next summer.
Look for a warm weather variety. They like it more humid when pinning so either mist or leave them in the bag to brown after stabbing a couple knife sized holes in the bag.
Oyster will work too if you have enough fae (I don't so oysters I run outside because it's plenty humid here for them).

I grew my cordyceps (in pots) between 19° and 22° and sometimes for a few hours during the day at 23°. During summer, I place my pots on the floor of a room where there are tiles to have more freshness:


My Reishi have grown between 20 and 27° (in Monotub then dubtubed and sgfc):

I thought about shiitake too but the temperatures looked too far apart.
Thanks man I may give it a try. Since I was planning to just clone one from the grocery store I got nothing to lose I suppose.

Shiitake is more domesticated than even cubes so there's a lot of strain variety.
The one I usually work with has a pretty large temperature window and has fruited outside side by side with Lion's Mane in the 70s and 80s.

The problem is that I don't really have access to a variety of strains but only what I will find at the grocery store near me.
I'll try to clone one from those and I'll see if, and how it ends up growing in the same tent.

If you're around in the spring, are in the U.S., and remember, shoot me a pm then. And I will send you some cultures when I pull them out of storage for the season.
