Summer production of Coprinus comatus belongs to anti-season cultivation. In summer, the temperature of many cultivation places even reach to about 30 degrees, so, people can’t produce high-quality Coprinus comatus. But, the temperature of anti-season should be controlled in between 15 and 20 degrees. Here are some specialized technologies.
1. Strain selection: people could take wide range of temperature adaption, take big size, strong resistance and high biologic efficiency as the main conditions. Raw material and formula will greatly affect the number and quality of fruiting, which is an actual technological problem that troubles mushroom farmers. Year’s of experiences on research and practice have proven that using local materials is the best decision and striving for overall and balanced nutrition is the wise method. In specialized production, general crop straws such as cottonseed hull, corncob and beanstalk can be utilized. When utilizing materials such as sawdust, people could achieve ideal effect as long as they correctly dispose raw material and scientifically design the proportion of raw and auxiliary material.
Cultivation field: natural caves and wasted military facilities are ideal cultivation field. Wasted bomb shelter and basement are superior cultivation fields as long as the problem of ventilation is solved. The constant temperature of all mentioned places is in about 15 degrees all the year round, which is extremely suitable for the fruiting of Coprinus comatus. In plain area, people could install water temperature air condition or control the temperature of greenhouse in about 22 degrees, which is also suitable for the fruiting of Coprinus comatus.
Formulas:
A. Cottonseed hull 22kg, bran 20kg, corn powder 10kg, urea 0.75kg, lime powder 5kg, mushroom 3D nutrition spermine 120g.
B. Corncob 210kg, bran 30kg, corn powder 10kg, bean cake 3kg, urea 1kg, lime powder 10kg, mushroom 3D nutrition spermine 120 to 240g.
People could add 2kg of superphosphate, 2kg of gypsum powder into each formula, reduce the temperature of base stock, prevent sudden rising of room temperature and increase the success rate of spawn running.
Main points on cultivation:
1. Strictly dispose facilities of cultivation: people could conduct drug sterilization to facilities in mushroom house, adopt the method of carpet-sterilizing. For some old mushroom houses that have been infected before, people could continuously conduct high concentration medication for 2 times.
2. Detoxification treatment of strain: people could introduce virus-free strains or conduct detoxification treatment by themselves.
3. Prepare base material: people could choose suitable formula in accordance with specific materials, enrich the proportion of nutrient content on base material to make spawns of Coprinus comatus in good nutrition environment, expand the biomass maximumly and lay solid material foundation for the fruiting of Coprinus comatus.
4. After-ripening of spawns: it belongs to soft technology, people could moderately master in accordance with specific circumstances. Main point is to sow ahead of time, after growing full spawns, people could lower temperature and try to extend the time of spawn running. On the one hand, it can make spawns develop horizontally in fungi sack. On the other hand, it can make the most of spawns, achieve the effect of after-ripening on spawns at the same time and lay foundation for explosive fruiting.
5. Dispose materials of fruiting: this link is the last material conditions to ensure the successful anti- season fruiting. People have to conduct sterilization and improve the fruiting effect of Coprinus comatus maximumly.
