In any biological process we want to control there is going to be a point of diminishing returns for methods that go beyond a certain level of complexity and expansion rate.

It's hard to say where that point is until the limits are tested. Lots of smart people with big budgets have been growing mushrooms for a long time with a focus on maximizing yield while minimizing the time, energy, and resources needed. Before trying to theoretically re-invent the wheel it might be more productive to study the current methods used by commercial (and skilled amateur) growers. Trying them out in an actual grow would be even better.

Once your colonization times and yields approach those of current commercial growers you'll have a much stronger foundation of knowledge and understanding from which to design theoretical improvements.
