Oyster mushroom cultivation is suitable for tropical climates such as Indonesia. The investment required to start the cultivation of oyster mushrooms is quite cheap and can be done gradually. The hardest part is making baglog, planting medium that has been inoculated with fungus seeds.
There are two main activities in the cultivation of oyster mushrooms. The first stage is to make the planting media and inoculate the seeds of mushrooms into the planting medium. So the media overgrown with white mycelium like cotton. The second stage is to grow the mycelium into a fruit body.
When the baglog used by its surface has been perfectly covered with mycelium, usually within 1-2 weeks of opening the lid of baglog, the fungus will grow and can be harvested. Baglog mushrooms can be harvested 5-8 times, if the treatment is good. Baglog that weighs about 1 kg will produce mushrooms as much as 0.7-0.8 kg. After that baglog removed or can be used as compost material.
Harvesting is done on mushrooms that have bloomed and enlarged. Precisely when the edges have been seen tapered. But the hood has not broken the color is still pure white. When the harvest period through half a day only then the color becomes a bit brownish yellow and tudungnya broke. When it's like this, the mushrooms will quickly wilt and not last long. The first harvest distance to the next harvest ranges from 2-3 weeks.
