Mushroom Cultivation Techniques

How to use the dunking technique to achieve higher yeilds when fruiting your substrate jars. This method hydrates the mushroom cakes so they have more moisture when going into the grow chamber. Mushrooms need lots of water to create there fruit bodies so this helps to give them a head start compared to substrate that has not been dunked before fruiting.

HOW TO MAKE OYSTER MUSHROOM GRAIN SPAWN IN A SIMPLE WAY

By Adrian Ogden , Katherine Prowse  Gourmet Woodland Mushrooms Ltd., U.K.  What did you begin with when you started mushroom growing? Some raw beginners might have started  with mushroom growing kits or so-called ready-to-fruit bags. From these bags they can harvest mushrooms  by just providing the proper conditions for mushroom growing. Others might have started with the organic  materials for mushroom growing, i.e. substrate and mushroom seed purchased from their local provider.  The former could see only fruiting  but the latter could witness the two phases of mushroom life cycle,  mycelial or vegetative growth and fruiting, or reproductive growth.  Mushroom seed, commonly called “spawn” in the mushroom industry is a result of mycelial expansion.  Using the following guide, any of you familiar with sterile techniques or having specialized knowledge of  mushroom culture can make your own “mushroom starters” under steri...

Some of the Most Important Cultivated Oyster Mushroom species

I will briefly present some of the most worldwide cultivated oyster mushroom species. An important aspect worth considering here is that some Pleuortus species are thermophilic (they love higher temperature ~30-32 °C / 86-89.6 F) while some other species are chriophilic (lower temperatures such as ~8-15 °C / 46.4-59 F are more suitable for their development). Taking into account this, we may choose what species to cultivate and in what season. Another important aspect is the sensitivity level of the mushroom; therefore we have more or less sensible species to the environmental factors present in the grow room. One thing is certain, these factors influence the mushroom developmental process, and are composed of biotic (e. g., competitive molds, flies, nematods, or other competitive mushrooms for the same substrate), while a-biotic factors refer to developmental conditions such as: temperature, humidity, ventilation, and light. Species of Cultivated Pleurotus: 1.   Pleu...
