Here are some ways in which gypsum is used in mushroom cultivation:To adjust the pH: Gypsum can be used to adjust the pH of the growing substrate. Mushrooms prefer a slightly acidic substrate with a pH between 6 and 7. Gypsum can help to raise the pH of the substrate if it is too acidic.To improve water retention: Gypsum can also improve the water-holding capacity of the growing substrate. This can help to prevent the substrate from becoming too dry or too wet, which can be detrimental to mushroom growth.To enhance mycelium growth: Gypsum contains calcium, which is an important nutrient for mycelium growth. Mycelium is the vegetative part of the mushroom that grows underground and absorbs nutrients from the substrate. Adding gypsum to the substrate can help to promote mycelium growth.To increase mushroom yield: Research has shown that adding gypsum to the substrate can increase mushroom yield by up to 50%. This is because gypsum helps to create a more stable environment for mushroom growth and promotes the development of larger, more robust mushrooms.Overall, gypsum is a valuable tool in mushroom cultivation and is commonly used by growers to improve the quality and quantity of their mushroom harvests.
