Subject: straw bale construction and mushroom farming

Hi there, i'm interested in using straw bale construction with plaster inner
barriers as a means of insulating and guarding the moisture of a room which
would serve the purpose of fruiting oyster mushrooms. This room would have
to maintain temperatures up to 80 or 90 degrees while holding humidity at
over 90%. Is straw bale with plaster a viable method for maintaining
humidity and temperature, or are there other, more effective yet sustainable
methods I should look into?
