Method for artificially cultivating mushrooms

1. First, you need seeds. Mushrooms consist of mycelium and fruiting body. Mycelium is a vegetative organ, while fruiting body is a reproductive organ. Mushrooms belong to fungi and cannot carry out photosynthesis. There are many kinds of mushrooms, and edible mushrooms are rich in nutritional value and economic value.

You need to choose a place to grow mushrooms. This place needs enough nutrients for mushrooms to grow. Mushroom growth does not need direct sunlight, but it can have certain humidity, temperature and ventilation. Mixed beds for growing mushrooms can be purchased or made by yourself. Cottonseed, corncob, sawdust, grass powder, lotus seed shell, straw, etc. These materials can provide enough nutrients for mushrooms, and pay attention to disinfection when planting to prevent pollution.

3. Two days before planting mushroom hyphae, it is necessary to spray all the cultivation beds to kill insects and make good preparations for planting. The water content of the culture medium is controlled at 63%~65%, which is slightly alkaline. The thickness of the auxiliary material is 13~ 17cm, and the temperature can be below 28 degrees. The mycelium should be buried 5 cm deep. After hyphae are planted, they should be lightly compacted with wooden boards.

4. Within 3 days after sowing, leave it alone, shade it, keep the temperature moderate, leave it alone, let the strain germinate and grow naturally, and ventilate it properly at night. After 15 days, the mycelium will be full, and then covered with a layer of soil and evenly covered, waiting for the mycelium to continue to grow.

5. When the mycelium grows to the unearthed level, it begins to replenish water to make the mushroom grow faster. When spraying water, it should be light, just a few times, and just keep the soil covered moderately.

6. It takes 3~4 weeks to keep the soil temperature moderate. In the meantime, you should always observe it to avoid bacteria being infected.

7. To judge whether mushrooms need to be picked, you need to look at the umbrella cover of mushrooms. When the umbrella covers are not fully opened or just opened, you need to take them off as soon as possible. At this time, the nutritional value of mushrooms is the highest. When picking, cut off the roots with scissors or a knife.
