Analyze the growth of Pleurotus florida under different incubated conditions
Abstract: The edible mushroom Pleurotus florida was cultured under microbiological condition which favored the growth of mycelium on selective potato dextrose agar medium. The same mycelium also grows well in wheat grain substrate during grain spawn production. But the mycelial growth efficiency of P. florida was higher in coconut coir, paddy straw and paddy straw + newspaper waste substrates when spawn running process. The pin head formation stage was only observed …

A Novel Evaporative Cooling Technology for Mushroom Farming
Abstract: Mushroom cultivation in India growing gradually as an alternative source of income. The major problem faced by mushroom cultivator is maintaining specific environment (Relative humidity and temperature). Different verities of mushrooms required different environmental conditions. Hence, this project focuses on developing environmental conditions in small polyhouse to grow mushrooms throughout the year. The concept of evaporative cooling is utilized to maintain the approximate relative humidity 75% and temperature 25°C for …
