How and Why a Laminar Flow Hood Works - Prevent Contamination for Cultivating Mushrooms at Home

Facebook:   / oneearthmushrooms   Instagram:   / oneearthmushrooms   I've been dreaming of building a laminar flow hood. Not only do I love to build things, but I know that I could bring a lot more efficiency into my workflow for cultivating mushrooms at home, while also reducing the occurrence of contamination in my substrates. I dove a little deeper into the science of how and why a laminar flow hood is so efficient at preventing contamination, and wanted to share with you some of the things I've learned. And yes, I now realize I spelled "efficiency" incorrectly...and "particulate". I'm trying to do science here, not write a book! lol
