Cultivation and cultivation techniques of Pleurotus ostreatus

Before planting Pleurotus ostreatus, first of all, according to the local climatic conditions at that time, select the appropriate strains, do not use aging or contaminated strains. Secondly, in the deployment of culture materials, clean raw materials should be used, and only when Pleurotus ostreatus is fermented, urea can be added to supplement nitrogen sources. Finally, attention should be paid to the control of light, moisture and ventilation, and the management of mushroom period should be strengthened.

1. Strain selection

The selection of bacteria, such as high-temperature varieties in winter, low-temperature varieties in spring, or sowing bacteria that have been aged or contaminated, are easy to cause slow or no bacteria, late or no mushroom. Therefore, when planting Pleurotus ostreatus, we should choose suitable strains according to the local climatic conditions at that time, and do not use aging or contaminated strains.

2. Deployment of culture materials

Clean raw materials should be selected and disinfection should be done well. Chemical fertilizers should not be added at will during batching. Only when Pleurotus ostreatus is fermented and planted, urea can be added appropriately to supplement nitrogen sources. At the same time, in the process of batching, special attention should be paid to the humidity of the culture material, and the moisture content should not be too high or too low, otherwise it is disadvantageous to the bacteria.

3. Mushroom production management

During the period of Pleurotus ostreatus, we should pay attention to the method of replenishing water, it is better to spray into the air, and we should also pay attention to ventilation to avoid excessive accumulation of carbon dioxide, resulting in the formation of fruiting bodies or deformed mushrooms.
