Green mold is a major disease in edible mushroom cultivation, mainly occurring on mushroom blocks that have not yet been colonized by mycelium or on culture material that has not been thoroughly sterilized. Green mold is prone to breeding in acidic environments and environments with relatively high humidity. Its spores spread quickly through the air and multiply rapidly. If not handled promptly, the losses will be severe.
Methods for preventing and controlling green mold in oyster mushrooms:
1. Lower the temperature and humidity of the mushroom house, increase ventilation, and cover the moldy areas with plant ash to prevent mold spores from flying around and spreading.
2. First fumigate the room by spraying with a 3% formalin solution, then wash the moldy areas with a 10% potassium permanganate solution.
3. Sprinkle potassium permanganate granules on the moldy areas, then spray water around the outer edges of the mold.
4. Take 9 parts quicklime and 1 part carbendazim, mix with an appropriate amount of water, and scrub the moldy areas.
5. Soak the mold with a 5% lime solution. After the mold disappears, drain off the lime solution and add fresh material.
6. Use a 200-fold dilution of kemeiling to inject into the green mold inside the material bags or to scrub the green mold on the bed surface.
7. Spray the moldy areas of the material bags with an 800-fold dilution of benomyl solution.
8. Brush the moldy areas with 95% alcohol or kerosene, ignite and burn it, then dig it out and fill in fresh material.
9. Spray the moldy areas with a 3% lysol solution. After washing and wiping the tools, dig out the mold. Wash and wipe the tools after each digging. After digging out, fill in culture material and spawn. This method can completely cure late-stage mold.
10. When cultivating with raw material, add 100 grams of kemeiling per 100 kg of culture material, which can effectively inhibit mold breeding.
