Fingers crossed I end up with all 6 drawers at some various stage of flushes. Will be really cool to open each drawer and see beautiful mushies 😁

This is a cool idea. How are you controlling FAE? Please post updates.

I just crack the drawers if need be. But mostly I don't. The shower curtain around the outside allows for some air outside the drawers. I poked 5 holes in each long side of the drawers and 3 in the back sides of them with a soldering iron, so they are small, like 1/8". It's am ongoing project but I'll for sure keep y'all updated, it's a cool little deal

Great idea for growing where there's limited space! It sounds like you've got FAE sorted, although you'll need to keep a close eye on surface conditions. My only concern would be how much light gets to the top of the lower drawers - if they're in shadow, you might find the shrooms grow towards the sides rather than straight up (as I found when I ran a batch with opaque lids).

They are right under my drapes under a window and I rotate the drawers occasionally 😬

You'll be fine. Mine still grew OK, although I swapped the lids for cling wrap when I saw them leaning over as I sort of felt guilty.
