Bailing mushroom is a relatively precious mushroom species in China, which is distributed throughout China. Because there is a large market demand, there are still more people who grow white spirit mushrooms. However, when we grow white spirit mushrooms, we need to pay attention to the environmental requirements of white spirit mushroom growth. So what are they? Let's take a look at it with the editor!
Temperature requirements
Bailing mushroom is a low-temperature type of mushroom, hyphae growth room temperature is generally around 5-30 degrees. However, the most suitable growth temperature should be about 23 degrees, if it is lower than 5 degrees, its growth rate will be significantly reduced. However, if it is higher than 35 degrees, the hyphae will stop growing. If the mycelium is matured, it takes about 30-45 days to mature physiologically. The temperature should be controlled at about -3-15 degrees, preferably within the range of 7-12, in order to ensure normal differentiation of fruiting bodies. Then, during the mushroom production period, the optimal temperature is about 13-18 degrees.
Moisture requirements
The water requirements of Bailing mushroom in growth are also very high. The water-to-material ratio should be controlled at about 1:1, and the moisture of the culture material should be maintained at least at 65%. During the growth of the white spirit mushroom, the air humidity should be controlled at about 85%. Remember that the humidity should not be too high, otherwise there will be a phenomenon of yellow mushrooms, affecting sales. If the temperature is 6-7 degrees, then the humidity should not be too low, otherwise there will be a cracking of the lid. Finally, the water content of the white spirit mushroom is actually relatively small, and it can be stored for about two weeks in a 15-degree environment after harvesting.
Lighting requirements
The growth of white spirit mushrooms does not require much light, and in general, when the germ is staged, dark culture can be grown normally. However, during the growth and development stage of the mushroom body, it still needs a certain amount of scattered light. Especially when the fruiting body is growing, if it is completely in a dark environment, then the differentiation of the fruiting body will be seriously affected. Therefore, the scattered light is mainly maintained for about 13 hours a day, but because of the different varieties, the demand for light will also vary. If the light is too weak, it will cause the mushroom body to appear deformed, the fungal cover is too small and so on.
Oxygen requirements
Oxygen is also a major environmental requirement for the growth of white mushrooms. Bailing mushrooms belong to the good gas type of fungi, whether it is mycelium or fruiting bodies need plenty of fresh air. Therefore, when cultivating Bailing mushroom, ventilation work is very important. If the indoor carbon dioxide concentration exceeds 0.4%, it will affect the formation of the original base of the white mushroom and the deformed mushroom will appear. Therefore, no matter what stage of growth of bailing mushrooms, we must pay attention to ventilation, and at the same time pay attention to maintaining mildness, and its temperature and wind speed should be harmonious.
