The Latest Key Management Techniques After the Shaggy Mane Mushroom Fruits
The shaggy mane (Coprinus comatus) is a type of mushroom with firm flesh and rich nutrition, loved by many people. Its market in our country is also very large, so it is grown over a considerable area. When cultivating shaggy mane mushrooms, management work is very important. Especially after the shaggy mane mushrooms fruit, you need to pay special attention. So how should shaggy mane mushrooms be managed after fruiting? Below, the editor will give you a brief introduction. Let's take a look together!
1. Strengthen ventilation
During the growth period of the shaggy mane fruiting bodies, the demand for air is relatively high. So after the shaggy mane mushrooms fruit, we should pay attention to maintaining good ventilation conditions. The ventilation time should be adjusted according to the temperature. If the temperature is lower, then ventilation should be carried out between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. If the temperature is higher, then you can ventilate at night. And during periods with large temperature differences, such as October, you can open up for ventilation at night, or lift open the greenhouse film. If there is no peculiar odor of edible fungi in the shed, or only a very slight one, then this means the ventilation is very good.
2. Humidity control
During the fruiting stage of the shaggy mane, humidity control inside the shed is also very important. After the shaggy mane mushrooms fruit, the humidity inside the shed should be kept at a relatively high level, preferably around 85%. When maintaining the humidity inside the shed, you can increase the humidity through various methods such as watering the ground, spraying water on the shed surface, and misting in the air. Note that you must not directly flood the mushroom bed with water, or spray water directly on the fruiting bodies. Otherwise, it is easy to cause mushroom rot, which is very unfavorable to the growth of the shaggy mane. Therefore, everyone should pay close attention.
3. Temperature adjustment
The growth of shaggy mane fruiting bodies has relatively strict temperature requirements. The most suitable growth temperature for shaggy mane fruiting bodies is about 20 degrees. However, if relying only on natural conditions, then the temperature requirements basically cannot be met. At the same time, it is not very easy to control artificially, so it is best if we can choose a good fruiting season for the shaggy mane. Or adjust reasonably according to the temperature, for example by adjusting the covering, controlling the ventilation time and time periods, etc. Try to keep the temperature within the range required for the growth of the fruiting bodies.
4. Light management
Compared with the growth of mushrooms such as oyster mushrooms, the shaggy mane has a greater demand for light. So we should pay attention to providing it with an appropriate amount of light, but note that increasing light will also affect the aging of the shaggy mane fruiting bodies. It will not only speed up the aging of the fruiting bodies, but the change in their color is also relatively large. So we should pay attention to properly adjusting the light time and intensity according to the actual situation. Do not change it at will by increasing or reducing light.
The above is a brief introduction to how to manage shaggy mane mushrooms after fruiting. That is all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only, and we hope it can help everyone!
