The following will introduce the cultivation technology of chicken seed mushrooms in detail.
First, the planting environment
Chicken seeds are suitable for growing in a warm and humid environment. The temperature should be controlled at 20-30 and the humidity should be kept at 80%-90%. At the same time, proper light is required, but direct exposure is not appropriate.
2. Cultivation materials
The cultivation materials of chicken seed fungi mainly include well-rotted broad-leaved tree chips, corn cobs, bran, corn flour, etc. Among them, broadleaf tree cuttings were the main carbon source, and corn cobs were a better choice to supplement nitrogen sources.
3. Planting methods
1.Ingredients and bagging: Mix the above materials evenly according to a certain proportion, add an appropriate amount of water and stir until the humidity is appropriate. It is then packed into plastic bags, each containing about 500 grams of wet material. Tie the bag tightly with a rope and put it in an autoclave for sterilization.
2.Inoculation: After the sterilized bag has cooled, inoculation is performed on a sterile workbench. Sprinkle the culture evenly on the material surface of the bag and gently compact. Then put on a plastic bag, seal it with tape, and place it at a suitable temperature to incubate.
3.Culture: During the incubation period, maintain a suitable temperature and humidity, and ventilate regularly. Generally, after 30-45 days of culture, the hyphae can grow all over the bag.
4.Mushroom management: When the fruiting body of chicken seeds appears on the surface of the mushroom bag, the bag should be removed in time, the mushroom stick should be discharged on the bed surface, and the appropriate temperature, humidity and light conditions should be maintained. After the fruiting body grows into maturity, it is harvested in time.
4. Precautions
1.In the planting process, it is necessary to pay attention to prevent contamination by miscellaneous bacteria, and once found miscellaneous bacteria, it should be dealt with in time.
2.Chicken breeders are sensitive to pesticides and fertilizers, so the planting area should be kept away from the source of contamination and avoid the use of pesticides and fertilizers.
3.When harvesting, a sharp knife should be used to avoid damaging the stick and the surrounding mushrooms. After harvesting, the residue should be cleaned up in time to maintain environmental hygiene.
4.The planting cycle of chicken seeds is long, so you need to be patient. At the same time, reasonable arrangements should be made according to local climatic conditions and market demand.
In short, it takes a certain amount of skill and patience to grow chicken seeds, but with the right cultivation methods and management skills, you will be able to have a good harvest and enjoy delicious and healthy ingredients.
