Radial growth rates
    #28527577 - 11/03/23 08:04 AM (2 months, 24 days ago)

Hi,
I am currently only working on cultivation of soil litter decomposing mushrooms, not on woodlovers. Beside trying to find out how to get them to fructificate, I am more or less experimenting with different substrate compositions in order to achieve better growth rates.
Daily radial growth, measured at the walls of transparent cultivation vessels range between 1-2 mm/d, which I consiser as slow groth to up to > 4mm/day, which I consider to be fast growth (at currently 22°C = 71.6 °F).
The substrate densities do not seem to make much of a difference. With straw litter material I have approx 75-80g/L culture volume dry mass, with pelleted material about twice as much due to finer grained litter.

I was wondering what are considered good or bad growth rates for other gourmet mushrooms. The only wood decomposer which i grew so far was Agrocybe agaerita (Piopino), where I also observed about 4-5 mm/d.

Thank you in advance for sharing your observations.
Cheers!
Stefan

To give you an idea what I mean with radial growth:
In order to estimate it, I just mark the boundaries of a growing maycelium and check how much it has spread after 24h.
Of course, easiest to do, when inoculated directly from agar and not from grain spawn.
