How humidity and temperature affect on fruiting body of oyster mushroom? | Biobritte Mushroom Center

Oyster mushrooms efficiently grow at temperature of 20–30°C and 55%–70% humidity on different lignocellulosic substrates such as cotton wastes, rice and wheat straw, wood sawdust and chips, corn cobs, sugarcane bagasse, maize and sorghum stover, different leaves, and other residues.

Humidity and temperature affect on fruiting body of oyster mushroom. Particularly, the factors affect the fruiting bodies’ shape. Optimal cultivation conditions vary with strains. Optimal temperature and humidity for fruiting body formation of this mushroom is known as 13-16°C and > 80%. High and low temperature indicates > 16°C and < 12°C, respectively and high and low humidity indicates > 80% and < 60%. 

 
  • With high temperature and high humidity: Cap/stipe ratio smaller (small cap/long stipe); Cap color becomes lighter (grey-brownish grey) ; Depression in the center.
  • With high temperature and low humidity: Cap margin gets thinner and brittle; Cap turns into umbrella shape; Cap color become very light (light grey-white); Stipe becomes very thick .
  • With low temperature and low humidity : Cap color becomes dark (dark brown); Stipe becomes thick or middle of stipe is swollen or barrel-shaped ; Fruiting bodies grows very slowly and produces low yields 

                                    How humidity and temperature affect on fruiting body of oyster mushroom?
 

  • With low temperature and high humidity : Relatively strong color and strong fruiting bodies formed ; Fruiting bodies grow slowly and the number of fruiting bodies reduced.
  • Several trials were designed to evaluate humidity and temperature factors affecting mycelium growth of oyster mushroom species. For example, Jang et al, 2003 reported that cap size and individual weight of Pleurotus ostreatus were 5.6 cm and 14.9g, respectively, at the cultivation house controlled in the 13~16oC and 80% or more relative humidity. 
  • On the other hand, the cap size and stipe thickness decreased with 16oC and 80% or more relative humidity. Stipe thickness decreased severely with decrease of relative humidity, and individual weight was the lowest at 16oC or more and 60% or less relative humidity. Deformed fruit-bodies, of which color was pale gray and crumbly, appeared at 16oC or more and60% or less relative humidity.

What is the major problems in mushroom cultivation?

Problems and solutions in the cultivation of the mushroom including: a) Mycelium fails to form Improper initiation strategy.  Solutions : consult parameter of growth. Alter moisture, temperature, light, carbon dioxide, etc.  Note : If the substrate is too moist, decrease moisture b) Chlorinated or contaminated water.  Solutions :  Use activated charcoal water filters to eliminate chemical contaminants or any other ways of simple or appropriate technology. c) Bad substrate.  Solutions : Check substrate. Spread the substrate and remix the substrate, package again, make sure all raw materials are good and fresh.   Note : It is necessary to pasteurize immediately after bagging otherwise fermentation gas will slow down the rate of growth of mycelium or stop mycelium growth. d) Bad pasteurization.  Solutions : Check method of pasteurization. Release all air and make sure there is continuous steam before starting pasteurization for a period of 3h. e) The substrate in the bag is too hot when i

Oyster mushroom vs button mushroom nutrition | Nutritional comparison between oyster and button mushrooms

Oyster mushrooms are beloved the world over for their delicate texture and mild, savory flavor.  Oyster mushrooms are more expensive than white button mushrooms but less so than rarer mushrooms like morels, and take little prep since they can be used whole or chopped.                                Oyster: “These are low in calories and rich in fiber, protein, selenium [which may help prevent cancer], niacin [aka, vitamin B3] and riboflavin [aka, vitamin B2].Oyster mushrooms also contain an active compound called benzaldehyde, which has potent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, research shows oyster mushrooms may significantly reduce blood glucose levels. They have also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels.”    White Button: White button mushrooms represent 90 percent of the total mushrooms consumed. “They’re a good source of potassium, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorus [which supports bone and teeth health] and iron. They also contain selenium, a trace
