Why air quality matters in Spawn Labs
Grain spawn gives off heat and CO₂ as it colonises. Without steady air exchange and temperature, incubation rooms develop hot spots, slow growth and contamination. MychoAI watches every incubation and clean room so each batch grows evenly.
Common problems
- CO₂ and heat build up in fully packed incubation rooms
- Opening doors to check conditions brings in contamination
- Temperature drift slows colonisation and weakens spawn
Measure, ventilate, stay informed
Sensors log CO₂, temperature and humidity in every incubation room
Filtered fresh air and cooling run automatically to hold targets
Batch records are saved for quality control and customer audits
A good starting point
Our team fine-tunes these levels for your space during commissioning.
| Incubation temperature | 24–25 °C (button mushroom spawn) |
|---|---|
| Incubation CO₂ | Keep below 5,000 ppm |
| Relative humidity | 60–70 % |
| Clean / inoculation room | Positive pressure with filtered air |
What you gain
- Faster, more even colonisation
- Fewer contaminated bags
- Batch-wise quality records
- Less door opening and manual checking

Can one controller handle several incubation rooms?
Each room gets its own sensor and controller, and all rooms appear together on one MychoCloud dashboard.
Can I download records for audits?
Yes. MychoCloud exports daily and batch reports to PDF and Excel.
