Bathroom - Good or bad for mycobags?

Would a bathroom (kept clean, kept always dark, temperature controlled and monitored) be a good place to grow psilocybes in a mycobag? Or would the humidity of the shower steam (daily showers) disrupt anything?

yeah, bathrooms are usually full of mildew and poop. i would never recommend growing shrooms, let alone doing anything related to the cultivation process, in a bathroom.

Hm, well yes, but the toilet is not in use, just the shower, they would be away from the shower, AND in a mycobag, which is 100% sealed, right?

Thats funny because I do all my inoculation, bulk hydration, and syringe making in my bathroom after a lysol and oust shock (ie I spray the fuck out of everything with lysol then blast the air with oust and let it sit for 5 minutes) Thus far my contamination rate is very low (ie I have lost no jars from inoc and only a couple g2g's) Bathrooms have a couple benefits, nothing in them would be harmed by a lysol dousing, they are usually small and have no cloth materials to hold bacteria, they are easily cleaned, but I would never ever be lax in any cleansing procedures, I don't work in my bathroom unless it is completely cleaned out, and lysoled to hell. Also I would not leave anything in my bathroom for a full run, but I have heard of others who have (Wronguy does tubs in his bathtub during their cpawn run)

Other benefits of doing clean work in a bathroom is that usually there is less fabric in the bathroom and fabric that is in there is easily removed, like curtains. It's also a smaller space and you can close off the air flow.
I think I heard toilet seats are cleaner then most door handles.

Haha, I was actually intending to do the EXACT same thing with Lysol and Oust. The sink and more importantly, toilet, both do not work, therefore are not in use, but I shower every day.
My main question that still remains unanswered is, will the steam from the shower have an effect? If so, I could take cold showers. (keep in mind, I'm mycobag growing)
For me, the bathroom is best because I can control and monitor room temperature the best there. And I never have any need for light (yes, even when I shower)

You should be ok. I wouldn't worry about steam, but if you want to you can always put them in a tote or something.
