Cubes & Oysters at the same time

I am about to start my cube grow tomorrow. I also want to start my pink oyster grow as well. It's way too cold to be doing the oysters outside so I wondered if it would cause a problem to fruit them in the same greenhouse (martha) as the cubes, at the same time.
Stamets' "Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms" lists pink oysters fruiting temps to be 65?F - 75?F and RH of 85-90%. The temp in my greenhouse is around 73?F and the RH will hopefully be in 85-90% range as well.
What do you guys think? Will this pose any problems?

The only parameter you have to worry is the carbon dioxide concentration. Oysters tolerate only very low concentrations, whereas P. cubensis can cope with higher ones.

I strongly disagree. A mini greenhouse should have plenty of free air exchange to handle both at once. I do it all the time. I have had five or six different species growing at the same time for years now, including oysters. A mini greenhouse is not a terrarium that stays closed up. Leave the door cracked open a bit if you need for air exchange. My mini-greenhouse has a 4" clothes dryer hose running through the wall to the outside for fresh air intake. RR

^^I agree, I've always done multiple species in my Martha, two coolmists and the door cracked is absolutely perfect and provides complete FAE. My Oyster log is doing quite well, many little guys poking out; and I see blue!
