A Detailed Guide to Thirteen Methods of Fertilizing Edible Mushrooms
1. Pen Shi Bao: dilute 5 ml per vial in 50 kg of water; it makes mushroom emergence neat and uniform and thickens the mushroom bodies.
2. Ye Mian Bao: use in the same way as Pen Shi Bao.
3. Gao Chan Ling: dilute 125 g per bag in 80 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier and in greater numbers, with thick, large, firm bodies.
4. Nong Bao brand Feng Chan Su: 100 ml per bottle, diluted in 200 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier and in greater numbers.
5. Naphthaleneacetic acid: dilute 5 g per bag in 60 kg of water; it makes mushroom emergence neat and promotes maturation of the mushroom bodies.
6. Super triacontanol: dilute 5 ml per bottle in 30 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier and the mushroom bodies plump and large.
7. Rare earth: dilute 10 g per bag in 100 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier and neatly, with a high survival rate.
8. New Mushroom No. 2 Vigor Agent: dilute 90 g per bag in 50 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge in greater numbers and the mushroom bodies turn white and become plump and large.
9. Gu Feng Su Type-2: dilute 50 g per bag in 20 kg of water; it raises the survival rate of young mushrooms, makes the mushroom bodies plump and large, and extends the picking period.
10. Da Feng hormone: dilute 25 ml per bottle in 120 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier, enlarges and thickens the mushroom bodies, and extends the picking period.
11. En Fei: dilute 10 ml per bottle in 10 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier, raises the survival rate of young mushrooms, and enlarges and thickens the mushroom bodies.
12. Fu Gu Tai: dilute 100 ml per bottle in 0.65 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier, raises the survival rate of young mushrooms, and makes the mushroom bodies larger.
13. Gu Bao: dilute 7 g per bag in 15 kg of water; it makes mushrooms emerge earlier and neatly, with distinct flushes, and enlarges and thickens the mushroom bodies.
How to use: (1) before mushroom emergence, soak, drench or spray; (2) after mushroom emergence, wait until the caps have fully differentiated and taken shape, then spray lightly with a fine mist, and increase the amount as the mushroom bodies grow. The application rate is 2-4 kg per square meter per flush of mushrooms. Effects: the first 8 can increase yield by 15-20%, and the last 5 can increase yield by 20-30%; if used in a mixture with 1% sucrose solution, 0.5% urea solution, 0.4% monopotassium phosphate solution or 0.2% magnesium sulfate solution, the effect is even better.
