Planting conditions of Morchella

Morchella is a kind of rare and precious edible fungus, which has high edible value and nutritional value, and has a good market prospect. Once Morchella is wild in the forest, it can be cultivated artificially at present, but Morchella is very strict about its growing environment. Let's follow the editor to take a look at the growing conditions of Morchella.

1. Temperature requirement

The suitable temperature of Morchella mycelium is between 18 and 22 degrees, the optimum temperature for spore germination is between 18 and 22 degrees, and the fruiting body can grow normally between 10 and 20 degrees, but the fastest growth is between 15 and 18 degrees. Morchella is a low-temperature strain. In the early growth stage, the underground mycelium begins to grow at a low temperature of 1-2 degrees Celsius, and the mushroom emergence time is usually from March to April. If the temperature exceeds 28 degrees, its growth will be very slow or even stop.

2. Lighting requirements

Morchella is a kind of bacteria that likes shade, but it can promote its growth during the fruiting body growth period, and the weak scattered light is due to the growth and development of the fruiting body of Morchella. When planting Morchella in areas with sufficient light, measures should be taken to shade and avoid the sun to ensure the growth and growth of Morchella. On the contrary, in areas with insufficient light, we should find ways to improve the weak scattered light.

3. Humidity requirements

In addition to the above two requirements, Morchella also has certain requirements for humidity when it is planted. The water content of its culture medium is 60% and 65%, and the air humidity is 80% and 90%. When its hyphae grow, the water content of the soil should be about 50%, and the humidity should be slightly lower, but the formation and growth of the fruiting body need a lot of water, and the humidity should be increased in time.

4. Soil requirements

Morchella generally grows on sandy loam, brown soil and dark brown soil riverbed sandy soil. its pH value is higher than that of ordinary fungi, and it grows best in neutral or slightly alkaline soil, and the pH value is between 6.5 and 7.9.

5. Air requirements

During cultivation, adequate oxygen is essential for the growth of Morchella. When the concentration of carbon dioxide in the general cultivation environment exceeds 0. 0%, its growth will be hindered. The most obvious is that the fruiting body is weak, deformed and even rotten.

The above is the introduction of the planting conditions of Morchella. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
