Why air quality matters in Commercial AC Farms
Mushrooms breathe out CO₂ all the time. Too little fresh air and caps stay small with long stems; too much and rooms dry out and chillers waste power. MychoAI keeps each cropping room at exactly the CO₂, temperature and humidity its stage needs.
Common problems
- CO₂ rises within hours when fresh-air dampers are set by guesswork
- Each stage — spawn run, pinning, cropping — needs a different target
- Night-time faults go unnoticed until the crop is already damaged
Measure, ventilate, stay informed
Sensors in each room read CO₂, air and compost temperature and humidity
Fresh-air dampers and fans open just enough to hold the stage target
Growers get WhatsApp alerts and can change targets from their phone
A good starting point
Our team fine-tunes these levels for your space during commissioning.
| Spawn run CO₂ | 5,000–10,000 ppm (keep fresh air low) |
|---|---|
| Pinning / case run CO₂ | Bring down to 1,000–1,500 ppm |
| Cropping CO₂ | 800–1,200 ppm |
| Cropping air temperature | 16–18 °C |
| Relative humidity | 85–92 % |
What you gain
- Better cap size and quality every flush
- Consistent crops across all rooms
- Lower chiller and fan power
- Round-the-clock alerts
What CO₂ levels mean
Best fit for Commercial AC Farms
AHU Controller - Mushroom Farm
A dedicated controller for the air handling unit of each mushroom cropping room.

Can this work with the AHU I already have?
Yes. MychoAI controls your existing fresh-air damper, fans and valves — our team checks your setup during a site survey.
Do I need a controller in every room?
Each cropping room needs its own sensor, because rooms are at different stages. All rooms then show together on one MychoCloud dashboard.
