Detailed Explanation of Key Management Techniques for Greenhouse Edible Mushroom Cultivation

Spring: First, culture the mushroom bags indoors with heating in winter, and arrange them in early spring for fruiting. The greenhouse temperature should be kept at 5-30°C during the day and above 5-10°C at night. On sunny days, spray water inside the greenhouse. Although this lowers the greenhouse temperature, it will not drop too low, and the water and water vapor will absorb and store heat, releasing it at night to raise the greenhouse temperature. This is beneficial for extending the time the greenhouse temperature stays above 15°C and promoting the growth of purple wood ear (Auricularia sp.).

Summer: The temperature rises from low to high, which is favorable for cultivating heat-tolerant purple wood ear. The main tasks are cooling and moisturizing. First, remove the greenhouse film and add a second layer of shade netting. Second, spray water to maintain moisture, which can lower the greenhouse temperature by 4-8°C and promote growth.

Autumn: This is the golden season for cultivating purple wood ear. In early autumn, cooling and moisturizing are still necessary. In late autumn, cover the greenhouse film to retain heat. When the temperature is high, remove the film again to cool down, so as to achieve high and stable yields.

Winter: Use the natural warmth of autumn to culture the mushroom bags and arrange them in early winter. On sunny days, the film can be appropriately removed to cool down, while on windy and rainy days, the film should be covered to retain heat. In late winter, when the temperature is relatively low, heating management can be strengthened, making every effort to extend the time above 15°C to promote growth.
