Is weed a vector of trich contamination?

Trichoderma is often used in cannabis cultivation as it protects the roots from several diseases and pests.
Not to sound apocalyptic, but I imagine that inoculating the soil with trich and/or disturbing the soil afterwards could result in cannabis (at least if it's grown indoors) buds being dressed in trich spores and germinated mycelium like a Christmas tree.
Is there any sort of statistics regarding trich contamination incidence among weed smokers growing shrooms?
Is it a bad idea to bring/smoke buds in the same room where shrooms live?
And most importantly, does this make sense, or am I being paranoid?

This one time I decided to smoke weed in my shroom room. Nothing happened. Then I decided to eat shrooms in my weed room and the plants started moving and changing colors. Then I realized it was just the fans and lights clicking on. I went to dennys after that and ordered two grand slam breakfasts with extra runny eggs. The. The waitress told me extra runny eggs wasn’t an option.

I smoke weed in the same area as my SAB just make sure you wet the inside of it and let it all settle before you inoc.. and don't get the smoke directly around the SAB but I blaze around same area as it.

I worked in a commercial weed grow and would often times return home and tend to my mushrooms before showering or anything. Definitely no problem and I think you are being super paranoid about it. When you have a trich outbreak in a tub it's 1000x more then will be on any weed ever and even outbreaks in tubs won't do anything to the other tubs in your grow. Now it's still best to move it out but it's really not as big a deal as some people seem to think. Some people will see one green speck and deep clean there whole house, steam the floors and walls and bleach everything. That's so overkill it's not even funny.

Absolutely fucking not. We spawn in open air. Your ganja plants aren't causing contams, dirty spawn is. Sure, some cannabis based subs are inoculated with trich but, that won't make your spawn suddenly get contaminated. Go back to ypur spawn if you're having issues.
