MOS - Mushroom Stack

Mitigation of Shock by Superflux: Our website

In Superflux Studio we have chosen to build mushroom stacks as an alternative source of food. From Pink Oyster to blue oyster mushroom the possibilities to grow mushrooms are vast and need a system similar but simpler than our Fogponic system.

Before we begin this guide, there are few recommendations you must know to grow mushrooms properly:

• Blue and Pink oysters grow well in this following temperature range: 15 - 25°C
• The mushrooms need first incubation in a dark room
• After incubation, they need a room with a decent amount of light

Material List:

• Timber
• Arduino
• MEGA 2560 or Arduino UNO
• Relay Module
• Fan
• Led Light
• Fogger 24V
• Mushroom tray
• Transparent boxes
• Foggers

Steps:

1. Build the frame of the incubation and incubation room - We chose a simple timber enough strong to support mushroom trays, which are light.
2. Install the Led light strips to create an ambient light in the stack.
3. Place the transparent boxes inside the stack and put the foggers inside them to create a large amount of humidity in the room.
4. Put the fan on the top of the stack to favorise the production of fresh air.
5. Connect the fan/foggers/lights to different relay module channel.
6. Pay attention to separate the foggers wires to the rest because of different voltage:
   • Fan + Lights + Arduino: 12v
   • Foggers: 24v
