How long is the growth cycle of Flammulina velutipes?

Introduction to the growth of Flammulina velutipes

Flammulina velutipes grows mostly on a culture medium made of cottonseed hulls, corn cobs or sawdust, and is mostly distributed in China, Japan, Russia, Europe, North America, Australia, etc. In China, the areas from Heilongjiang in the north to Yunnan in the south, from Jiangsu in the east to Xinjiang in the west are all suitable for the growth of Flammulina velutipes.

Growth cycle of Flammulina velutipes

Flammulina velutipes only needs to be rooted and mixed with nutrient solution before it can grow. It has strong cold resistance and grows fast. The growth period of Flammulina velutipes generally takes 50-60 days from sowing to harvesting.

Growth rate of Flammulina velutipes

Flammulina velutipes is a saprophytic fungus that thrives at low temperatures. At the same time, a large temperature difference between day and night can stimulate the occurrence of fruiting body primordia. Generally, it is cultivated once a year and can be harvested three times.

Management of Flammulina velutipes growth cycle

Generally, one acre of land can produce about 10,000 bags of Enoki mushrooms, and the yield can reach 8,000-10,000 kilograms. However, the level of yield is linked to the production management technology, so good management technology is the key to increasing production.

Temperature management: Enoki mushrooms grow best in an environment of 4-32 degrees. Below 4 degrees and above 30 degrees, their growth is extremely slow. 10-15 degrees is most conducive to the formation of fruiting bodies.

Fertilization management : After the first wave of Flammulina velutipes is harvested, 200 grams of nutrient solution should be sprayed. The quality of the Flammulina velutipes will be affected in the later stage. You can add a large amount of water into the bag to promote the culture medium to absorb water and expand, so that the bottom of the bag is deprived of oxygen and cannot produce mushrooms. Mushrooms can only grow on the surface of the material. Then 3 more waves of mushrooms can be produced.
