Technology for growing straw mushrooms with sawdust gives high productivity

Straw mushrooms are a type of mushroom that is extremely familiar to us. They often grow and develop from different types of straw, thereby producing different shape and color characteristics. Although they have an ugly shape, straw mushrooms are extremely nutritious and contain many nutrients that are beneficial to human health, such as: Vitamins A, C, B1, B2, D, E, etc. .. and a series of amino acids and trace minerals.

Straw mushrooms are an easy-to-grow plant that can be grown year-round if the climate and weather where you live is mild and not harsh. If you grow straw mushrooms in the winter, you should plant them in a closed room to avoid wind and cold air to keep the mushrooms warm. If you grow straw mushrooms in the summer, you should grow straw mushrooms in cool, dry places, not exposed to rain or storms.

Growing mushrooms with sawdust is a method of growing delicious and nutritious mushrooms. Let’s join GREEN MECH to learn about the technology of growing straw mushrooms with sawdust!

Why should you use sawdust to grow straw mushrooms?

• Available and cheap raw materials: Sawdust is a byproduct of wood processing, easy to find and low cost, helping to reduce mushroom production costs.
• Good water holding capacity: Sawdust has a high water holding capacity, which is very important in maintaining the moisture necessary for fungal growth.
• Providing nutrients: Sawdust is rich in cellulose and lignin, which is a food source for straw mushrooms. The process of decomposing these substances helps fungi grow strongly.
• Improves soil structure: When used as a buffer, sawdust helps improve soil structure, creating favorable conditions for the growth of fungal roots.
• Easy to manage and use: Sawdust is easy to handle and distribute during the mushroom growing process, from preparing the substrate to harvesting.
• Reduce the risk of infection: Compared to traditional methods, using sawdust can help reduce the risk of infection from soil and weeds.
• Environmentally friendly: Using sawdust is an effective way of recycling, helping to reduce the amount of wood waste entering the environment.

So which equipment provides a large amount of sawdust to help save costs rather than buying retail

GREEN MECH Sawdust crusher – Completely new solution with a single wood crusher to crush all types of wood, both fresh and dry, into sawdust. High quality sawdust, saves time, reduces production costs by up to 40%, reduces investment costs for users, bringing high economic efficiency.

Working principle of wood crusher into sawdust

• Feeding wood into the machine: Wood from trees, branches, bars, and cardboard are placed on the belt by the operator, and the conveyor belt moves thanks to the hydraulic motor system that moves the wood into the machine.
• Wood clamps: After being fed into the machine by the conveyor belt, the wood will be held tightly by toothed rollers to increase adhesion. These batches are also operated by hydraulic motors.
• Grinding wood into sawdust: The principle of grinding wood into sawdust operates like the principle of a wood saw machine. The blades are mounted on the roller according to an optimal principle to make the grinding process easy and effective.

• Passing sawdust out: through rubber conveyor belt placed under the machine.
• Motivation system: Electric motor creates movement and force through the pulley and belt mechanism to accelerate the grinding roller. The grinding roller moves to the design speed, creating cutting force on the knife tips.

Advantages of sawdust wood crusher

• Only need to use a single machine to produce sawdust, instead of having to use multiple machines like other old methods before.
• Sawdust products are made in small and even granules, only GREEN MECH wood crushers can do this.
• Sawdust produced from GREEN MECH machines is the only solution for the mushroom growing, livestock raising, and smokeless charcoal production industries.
• The machine operates using a hydraulic motor system that increases durability, stability, and requires little maintenance.
• The wood grinding machine into sawdust is designed according to a completely new principle, the first in Vietnam, helping to reduce energy consumption by up to 45%.
• The machine has a compact size, takes up little space and requires little replacement of components during use.
• The operator does not need high qualifications, the operation is simple and quick.

The process of growing straw mushrooms uses high technology

Straw mushroom growing technology has become popular and advanced, helping to optimize mushroom yield and quality.

Step 1: Proceed with raw material processing

Sawdust is watered with about 3% lime water to make it evenly wet, with a humidity of about 75 – 80% being moderate. Then pile the ingredients into a pile about 1.5 – 2m wide and about 1.2m high. After 5 days, turn the pile once and after 10 days, the pile can be transferred to tissue.

Mixing: Sawdust, organic fertilizer, lime, and other ingredients to provide nutrients for mushrooms are mixed in appropriate proportions to ensure adequate nutrition and maintain the necessary pH. for fungal growth.

Step 2: Prepare the location

You can choose to grow mushrooms indoors or you can grow mushrooms outdoors. Choose a location that is flat, high and not flooded. Avoid choosing a place to grow mushrooms near livestock or polluted areas.

In addition, you can also grow straw mushrooms in the garden, on soil or cement, as long as the mushroom bag is covered in plastic and cannot be penetrated by water.

Step 3: Close the bag of mushroom embryos

Plastic bags: Use thick plastic bags, usually polyethylene (PE), heat-resistant and puncture-resistant.

Packing bags: Pour the injected seed mixture into bags, each bag can contain from 1.5 to 2 kg of substrate depending on the scale of production.

Exhaust and filtration: Install a microbiological filter or small holes on the bag to ensure that CO2 gas can escape and clean air can enter during the mushroom growth process, while also preventing harmful microorganisms. harmful.

Step 4: Choose spawn

This is one of the important steps in the process of growing straw mushrooms, greatly affecting productivity. It is necessary to choose spawn that is not contaminated with bacteria, and the mycelium is clear white and speckled with pink. When opening the lid of the bag, there is a characteristic aroma of straw mushrooms.

Step 5: Sterilize the bag of mushroom embryos

Sterilization of mushroom embryo bags is the process of using high temperatures to destroy harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, mold, and other pathogens in the substrate before injecting the mushroom seed. The main purpose of this process is to create a clean and ideal environment for mushroom growth, thereby enhancing production efficiency and quality of mushroom products.

Step 6: Care and harvest straw mushrooms

In the process of growing straw mushrooms, the most important care and incubation step is to monitor humidity and temperature. The temperature can be adjusted by watering. The appropriate humidity of the substrate is about 55 – 60%.

Depending on the weather, on average, spawn can be harvested 15 – 20 days after transplanting. Straw mushrooms grown on sawdust have a longer fruiting time of about 3-7 days.

Growing mushrooms with sawdust is a method of creating delicious and nutritious mushrooms at home. By following basic instructions and techniques, you can create the ideal environment for the growth of straw mushrooms. Not only does it bring joy in growing plants, but it also provides fresh and nutritious food for your meals.
