Cultivation of oyster mushrooms by placing mycelium inside seal ring between two log halves held together by outer rings

摘要

Cultivation of oyster mushrooms consists of placing oyster mushroom mycelium (6) inside a seal ring (4) between two halves (1, 2) of a white poplar, beech or walnut log. Cultivation of oyster mushrooms consists of placing oyster mushroom mycelium (6) inside a seal ring (4) between two halves (1, 2) of a white poplar, beech or walnut log about 30 cm long and 20 in diameter. The two halves of the log are then fastened together by outer seal rings (3, 5) and put inside a black plastic sack on top of some cow dung and a layer of straw. The sack is then closed to start fermentation and accelerate formation of the fungi, after which the log halves are separated and buried with 3 cm of soil on top and one end in free air, and transferred to a greenhouse heated to 10 - 20 deg C for fast development of the mushrooms.
