         The key point of managing Agaricus blazei after casing soil is applied is to keep the soil at a suitable moisture content.

         Water immediately after casing soil is applied to adjust the soil moisture content. When adjusting water, spray lightly, spray frequently, and do it in several rounds. After adjusting water, the soil particles of the casing soil should be soft enough to be pinched flat with the fingers and have no white core.
        After adjusting water, generally do not spray water again; only when the climate is dry and the surface of the casing soil turns white should you spray water in a fine mist. The plastic film covering the mushroom bed should be removed 5 days after casing soil is applied. When the mycelium grows to 1/2 of the casing soil layer, ventilate appropriately, and the temperature in the cultivation room should be controlled at 18°C-25°C.

        12-15 days after casing soil is applied, when rice-grain-sized primordia form in the soil layer, you can move into fruiting-stage management.
