Cultivation techniques of Coprinus comatus: how to grow Coprinus comatus and cultivation techniques of Coprinus comatus

Coprinus comatus is a common edible mushroom. Do you want to grow it yourself? In fact, it is very easy to grow it, as long as you have the necessary materials and be more careful, you can grow chicken leg mushrooms.

Main cultivation materials: stable manure, cow dung, wheat straw, rice straw, cottonseed husk and miscellaneous sawdust. Excipients: pericarp, rice bran, corn meal, compound fertilizer, gypsum powder and vitamin B1.

Second, suitable conditions. The most suitable temperature for the growth of chicken leg mushroom is 22-28 degrees. In artificial cultivation, the number of fruiting bodies is the most and the yield is the highest when the temperature is 16-24 degrees. The water content of chicken leg mushroom culture material should be 60% and 70%, and the air relative humidity during the culture period is about 80%. When the fruiting body occurs, the air relative humidity should be 85% _ 95%. The growth of the hyphae of chicken leg mushroom does not need light, but 500-1000 lug light is needed for the differentiation of mushroom buds and the development and growth of fruiting body. When cultivated in mushroom prescription, the fruiting body should be ventilated 4-8 times per hour during the formation of fruiting body. 6-7 is the most suitable medium or soil covering material. The formation of fruiting body of Coprinus comatus needs to be stimulated by soil cover and soil microbial metabolites.

Third, the culture material makes 40 kg of chopped rice straw, 1 kg of urea, 40 kg of corn straw powder, 20 kg of horse dung (broken dry manure), 2 kg of phosphate fertilizer, 3 kg of lime and 150 kg of water.

Fourth, the cultivation technique will fully mix the culture material well, the stacking material is 1 meter high and 1.2-15 meters wide, cover with plastic film to keep warm, keep it at 60-70 degrees for 10 hours, then turn the pile. When the temperature reaches 60-70 degrees again, keep it for another 10 hours, and the effect ends. Spread cool and spread on the pre-prepared border surface, the material thickness is 10-20 cm, sow in 3 layers, and the seed amount is 15% of the culture material. After sowing, level the surface of the material, compact it slightly, and finally cover it with 5 cm thick loam or cover with plastic film to keep warm and moisturizing. After the mycelium has grown, remove the plastic film to cover the soil, first cover the coarse soil, and then cover the fine soil, spray water to moisturize.

Fifth, the ripening speed of the fruiting body of Coprinus comatus is fast, and it must be harvested when the ring of mushroom buds is just loose and anti-hairy scales appear on the bell-shaped cover.
