Detailed Explanation of King Oyster Mushroom Bud Thinning Methods and Technical Key Points
During the cultivation of king oyster mushrooms, growers often fail to carry out the necessary bud thinning in time, which leads to many small mushroom buds growing on both sides of the mushroom bag after primordium differentiation, ranging from a few to as many as dozens. However, due to limitations of nutrients and space, most of these buds cannot grow into marketable mushrooms and lose their commercial value....
During the cultivation of king oyster mushrooms, growers often fail to carry out the necessary bud thinning in time, which leads to many small mushroom buds growing on both sides of the mushroom bag after primordium differentiation, ranging from a few to as many as dozens. However, due to limitations of nutrients and space, most of these buds cannot grow into marketable mushrooms and lose their commercial value. Therefore, after the primordium of king oyster mushrooms differentiates, bud thinning must be carried out promptly to avoid wasting nutrients. The principle of bud thinning is to select buds with good positions, proper shape and similar sizes when the buds have just formed, keeping 3-5 per side; when the fruiting bodies grow to about two cm, carry out another round of selection, keeping 2-3 per side. In this way, the king oyster mushrooms can be ensured to grow large and have high commercial value.
