The broken-planting technique for oyster mushroom logs helps increase yield
For oyster mushrooms cultivated in mushroom bags, the yield drops greatly after 2-3 flushes of mushrooms. If the temperature rises, the quality will also be reduced. How can later flushes be cultivated to equal or even exceed the yield of the previous flushes? Below is a simple and practical method - the broken-planting method. Remove the plastic bags from mushroom bags that have produced 2-3 flushes, then scrape the old surface layer once, and soak in 5% lime water. If the mushroom logs are relatively dry, also soak in 1% salt water for half a minute. Before soaking, poke a hole through the mushroom log from top to bottom so

Transplanting oyster mushrooms is a new way to achieve high yields
Researchers at the vegetable supply base of Shengli Oilfield, through repeated experiments, have found a new way to achieve high yields of oyster mushrooms - transplanting. The key technical points are introduced as follows: 1. Choosing a good transplanting bed There are no special requirements for choosing a transplanting bed. As long as the mycelium is growing normally, the substrate surface is free of contaminating microorganisms, there are no pests, and the dryness and moisture levels meet the standard, the key point is that any mushroom block or bed that has not yet produced mushrooms can be used as a transplanting bed. 2. Key technical points of transplanting First, strictly disinfect the small shovel or small knife used for transplanting according to conventional methods. Then select mushroom buds that are growing densely in a coral-like shape

Detailed Explanation of High-Yield Cultivation Techniques for Transplanting Oyster Mushroom Buds
In bed-style cultivation of oyster mushrooms, it is common for mushroom buds to grow unevenly, and this is even more serious in outdoor sunken-bed cultivation. Of these densely packed small mushroom buds, no more than 3 to 4 grow into edible mushrooms, and the vast majority gradually wither after three to five days. On one hand, this consumes a large amount of nutrients; on the other hand, if the withered mushroom buds are not dealt with in time, they will rot and deteriorate, causing pests and diseases and reducing the yield of the next crop. If these mushroom buds are selectively transplanted and cultivated, it can not only reduce pest and disease damage, but also increase yield by 20%. The method for transplanting oyster mushroom buds is introduced as follows: 1. Preparatory work. For transplanted

Why oyster mushroom transplanting gives such good yield increases
Practice has shown that thinning and transplanting densely clustered mushroom buds gives good yield increases. The transplanting method is as follows. 1. Transplant at the right time: transplant when the mushroom buds have just appeared. 2. Planting material: there are no strict requirements; they can be planted on either spawn material that has not yet fruited or material that has already been harvested. Spawn material that has not yet fruited helps the mycelium wounds from transplanting heal and the fruiting bodies develop well. 3. Transplanting method and management: transplanting should be done by digging holes in the spawn brick or spawn bed. Place the small clump of mushroom buds that has been picked into the hole that has been dug, and press firmly around it so that the mushroom buds and the spawn material on the surface of the spawn brick or bed

Adding rice husk to mushroom casing soil brings better planting benefits
In conventional mushroom cultivation management, casing soil is a technically demanding task. There are special requirements for the casing soil's texture, soil aggregate structure, aeration, and water retention and holding capacity. In particular, when making large, medium, and small casing soil particles, it is both labor- and time-consuming, and the labor intensity is high. To effectively solve these problems, the author has repeatedly reformed mushroom casing soil technology since 1990, and finally determined to use surface humus soil from within forest stands or paddy field plough layer soil (sandy loam or clay loam are both acceptable) mixed with 5% fresh rice husk

Practical Methods and Technical Points for Anti-Aging of Mushrooms
1. Soaking in clean water: Water can block out air, slowing down the discoloration of mushrooms and keeping them plump. However, the water must have a low iron content; do not use iron containers or water with a high iron content for soaking. 2. Sodium metabisulfite treatment: First rinse the mushrooms with a 0.01% sodium metabisulfite aqueous solution for 3 to 5 minutes, then soak them in a 0.1% sodium metabisulfite aqueous solution for half an hour, remove and drain, and store in plastic bags. At a room temperature of 10°C to 15°C, the preservation effect is good, and the mushrooms can remain white for a long time. However, when the storage temperature exceeds 30°C, they can only be preserved for 1 day, after which they will gradually discolor.

Wild mushrooms may be developed into anti-cancer drugs
Seemingly ordinary macrofungi, that is, wild mushrooms commonly parasitic on tree trunks, may actually be developed into antibacterial and even anti-cancer drugs. A research team composed of four lecturers and their students from the School of Chemical and Life Sciences at Nanyang Polytechnic in Singapore has, over the past two years, classified and studied more than 400 species of local wild mushrooms, and found that two of them contain anti-cancer compounds and 30 contain antibacterial compounds. At present, they have successfully identified the chemical structure of one wild mushroom with anti-cancer properties, and confirmed
