  2. Fungiculture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungiculture

    [1] [2] [12] Up until the point when rhizomorphs or mushroom "pins" appear, the mycelium is an amorphous mass spread throughout the growth substrate, unrecognizable as a mushroom. Carbon dioxide concentration becomes elevated during the vegetative growth phase, when mycelium is sealed in a gas-resistant plastic barrier or bag which traps gases ...

  3. Mushroom spawn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushroom_spawn

    Mushroom spawn is a substrate that already has mycelium growing on it. [1] [2] Mycelium, or actively growing mushroom culture, is placed on growth substrate to seed or introduce mushrooms to grow on a substrate. This is also known as inoculation, spawning or adding spawn. Its main advantages are to reduce chances of contamination while giving ...

  4. Monod equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monod_equation

    [S] is the concentration of the limiting substrate S for growth, K s is the "half-velocity constant"—the value of [S] when μ/μ max = 0.5. μ max and K s are empirical (experimental) coefficients to the Monod equation. They will differ between microorganism species and will also depend on the ambient environmental conditions, e.g., on the ...

  5. Mycelium-based materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycelium-based_materials

    Mycelium-based composites require a fungus and substrate. “Mycelium” is a term referring to the network of branching fibers, called hyphae, that are created by a fungus to grow and feed. When introduced to a substrate, the fungi will penetrate using their mycelium network, which then breaks down the substrate into basic nutrients for the fungi.

  6. Spent mushroom compost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spent_mushroom_compost

    It is an excellent source of humus, although much of its nitrogen content will have been used up by the composting and growing mushrooms. It remains, however, a good source of general nutrients (1-2% N , 0.2% P , 1.3% K plus a full range of trace elements ), as well as a useful soil conditioner . [ 1 ]

  7. Basidiospore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basidiospore

    The spores are released during periods of high humidity and generally have a night-time or pre-dawn peak concentration in the atmosphere. [1] When basidiospores encounter a favorable substrate, they may germinate, typically by forming hyphae. These hyphae grow outward from the original spore, forming an expanding circle of mycelium.

    The Trump transition team wants the incoming administration to drop a car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Elon Musk’s Tesla.

  9. Mold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mold

    Close up of mold on a strawberry Penicillium mold growing on a clementine. A mold (US, PH) or mould (UK, CW) is one of the structures that certain fungi can form. The dust-like, colored appearance of molds is due to the formation of spores containing fungal secondary metabolites. The spores are the dispersal units of the fungi. [1] [2] Not all ...
