Utilizing agricultural straws to cultivate mushroom features its unique procedures. First, choose straw stalks and wheat straws which are fresh and free from mould, soak in 1%-1.5% of quick lime water till soft, then drain moisture, adopt standardized mould to make fungus wall, arrange a layer of straw with a layer of fungi sack, specially-made nutritive soil should be filled between each fungi sack, then wrap with plastic film. After about one month, spawns become grown, in that case, remove standardized mould, reinforce the management and then routinely cultivate mushrooms.
Some experts working in mushroom industry have pointed out that utilizing straws could not only produce Button and Oyster mushroom, but also Pleurotus geesteranus, Shaggy Mane, Agaricus subrufescens, Pleurotus cornucopiae and other rare varieties, the technology highlights its simplicity and soil improvement, the leftovers could be reused as the fertilizer for crop production.
