Key points of management of mushroom emergence period of Pleurotus ostreatus

Pleurotus ostreatus is one of the common edible fungi in our life, which is deeply loved by people, the market is wide, and there are many growers. In the process of planting, the management of mushroom emergence period is very important, which is related to the yield and quality of Pleurotus ostreatus. So how to manage the mushroom emergence period of Pleurotus ostreatus? Come and have a look with the editor.

1. Water management

Water management is very important in edible mushroom production. Water transfer of overlying soil layer is an important technical link in water management, and two management methods can be adopted. First, the spraying method is adopted to make the overlying soil layer not wet but permeable, and the overlying soil layer reaches the maximum water holding capacity in 1-2 days. This method has little effect on mycelium and is suitable for clayey soil. The second is heavy knot mushroom water, which uses the method of watering and giving enough water at one time. This method can effectively stimulate the rapid transformation of hyphae from vegetative growth to reproductive growth and adapt to the soil-covering materials with better physical and chemical properties.

2. Temperature management

In the emergence period of Pleurotus ostreatus, the greenhouse temperature needs to be kept between 11-20 degrees, which is the best suitable growth temperature for fruiting body, and it can grow normally without any regulation. With the decrease of temperature, thermal insulation measures should be strengthened, which can be adjusted by covering thermal insulation film and midday ventilation. In recent years, some farmers have adopted fire walls, soil heating and other methods, the effect is also very good, the low temperature season only needs to be kept above 8 degrees, can meet the normal growth and development of the fruit body.

3. Ventilation management

The ventilation effect in the mushroom shed is directly related to the yield and quality in the later stage. Many farmers often attach importance to temperature and water management, but ignore ventilation management. In addition to the need for the growth of mycelium and fruiting body in the mushroom shed, it is very important that carbon dioxide can be discharged and diluted in time to take the excess water out of the greenhouse, especially when the humidity inside the greenhouse is too high. In addition, good ventilation can also prevent the occurrence of some diseases, generally requires that the concentration of carbon dioxide in the shed is about 0.05%, not more than 0.1%.

4. Lighting management

The most important feature of Pleurotus ostreatus is that the fruiting body can grow normally without light, but it will not hinder its growth and development under the condition of low light. Therefore, the cover of the mushroom shed can be strictly covered in the production, and the corners or ventilation holes can be opened only when entering the operation. When there are conditions, the lights can be turned on, and the human walking lights can be turned off.

The above is the introduction of the key points of the management of Pleurotus ostreatus. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
