Efficiency of charcoal as supporting growth material in Pleurotus Ostreatus Mushroom Cultivation on various agricultural wastes mixed with rubber tree sawdust (SR) (in-Press)
Presently, the production of oyster mushroom in Malaysia is using rubber sawdust (SR) as the main medium to cultivate the oyster mushroom. Due to high demand and shortage of SR, other lignocellulosic wastes from oil palm wastes are used as an alternative substrate with the purpose of cultivating the...

Due to high demand and shortage of SR, other lignocellulosic wastes from oil palm wastes are used as an alternative substrate with the purpose of cultivating the oyster mushroom. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of additional charcoal as supporting growing material in the cultivation of the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus using various agricultural wastes mixed with SR. The SR, palm pressed fiber (PF), sugarcane bagasse (SB), corncob (CC) and charcoal were analyzed for their elemental compositions.

The 100 % SR with 2 wt% of charcoal substrate recorded the fastest mycelium growth which around 19 days.

Presently, the production of oyster mushroom in Malaysia is using rubber sawdust (SR) as the main medium to cultivate the oyster mushroom. Due to high demand and shortage of SR, other lignocellulosic wastes from oil palm wastes are used as an alternative substrate with the purpose of cultivating the oyster mushroom. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of additional charcoal as supporting growing material in the cultivation of the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus using various agricultural wastes mixed with SR. The SR, palm pressed fiber (PF), sugarcane bagasse (SB), corncob (CC) and charcoal were analyzed for their elemental compositions. The charcoal addition was varied to 0 wt%, 2 wt% and 4 wt% for 100 % SR, 50 % SR + 50 % PF, 50 % RS + 50 % SB and 50 % SR + 50 % CC substrates. It is hypothesized that the charcoal addition can boost up the yield and the mushroom quality as a growth supporting material. These substrates also have been supplemented with a fixed ratio of wheat bran and limestone to enhance the mushroom production. The number of days of mycelium growth, the number of days of pin head formation and yield for every flush were recorded. All the substrate containing charcoal, either 2 wt% or 4 wt%, showed a faster growth of mycelium rather than the substrate without the charcoal addition except for the 50 % SR + 50 % SB substrate.
