The latest Hericium erinaceus fruiting period management points

Hericium erinaceus is rich in nutrition, rich in 16 kinds of amino acids and a variety of vitamins and minerals required by the human body, its taste delicious and delicious, deeply loved by consumers. In the cultivation of Hericium erinaceus, fruiting period is an extremely important stage, which is related to yield and quality, and has a direct relationship with the income of growers. So how should Hericium erinaceus be managed during the fruiting period? Let's take a look at the detailed introduction.

1. Mushroom preparation

Under the condition of tight shading and darkness in the mushroom shed, after 20 days of inoculation, the mycelium has penetrated into the fungus bag for one third, and then it is necessary to prepare for the fungus. Because the bag is a plastic film, in order to produce mushrooms normally, first of all, a small opening of about 3 cm should be made on the top, middle and bottom of the bag, so that the young bud will grow out of this opening.

2. Temperature and humidity

During fruiting, the temperature of the mushroom shed should be maintained between 12-20 ° C, with 18 ° C being the most suitable. Generally, the temperature of the mushroom shed is higher than 26 ° C and lower than 10 ° C, and the growth speed of the fruit body will be extremely slow, affecting the yield and quality. Air humidity is also extremely important, and needs to be maintained between 85% and 90% during fruiting to meet the needs of fruiting bodies for moisture and humidity. If humidity is satisfied, the fruit body grows fast, the color is white, and the yield is high. If humidity is too high or too low, the fruit body grows slowly or stops growing, and it is easy to grow deformed. When humidity is low, spray water or spray in time to increase the humidity of mushroom shed, and rainy days or cloudy days should not spray water.

3. Timely ventilation and cooling

Hericium erinaceus is an aerobic fungus. It needs sufficient fresh oxygen when growing. Under the condition of sufficient oxygen, the fruiting body is large, tight and white, and the yield is high. However, it is more sensitive to carbon dioxide concentration. Generally, if the concentration of carbon dioxide in mushroom shed exceeds 0.1%, it will grow poorly. Even abnormal, so in cultivation, must often ventilate. Open the vents regularly every day. In addition, timely ventilation during high temperature periods can also cool down, but at low temperatures, less ventilation is required to warm up and moisturize. Generally high temperature ventilation in the morning and evening, half an hour each time, and low temperature ventilation at noon.

4. Control the light

When hyphae grow to one-third or two-thirds of the bag, it should be given appropriate scattered light to promote the formation of fruiting bodies, but the light should not be too strong, in 200-300 lux is appropriate, so that about half a month fruiting bodies can mature. Although the fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus is formed in a dark environment without light, it often forms deformed mushrooms, and the same strong light can also cause deformed mushrooms.

The above is the fruiting period of Hericium erinaceus management points, I hope to help you, want to know more about the relevant knowledge, please pay attention to us.
