Effect of substrate moisture content during cultivation of Hericium erinaceus and subsequent vermicomposting of spent mushroom substrate in a continuous feeding system
Original language description
Cultivation of Hericium erinaceus depends on various factors, one of which is water content in the substrate. This parameter influences not only the growth rate of the mushroom but also enzymatic activity, which is important for substrate decomposition and for the later usage of spent mushroom substrate (SMS). This study compared parameters, such as mycelial growth, pH and enzymatic activity in substrates with different initial water content. During cultivation, the water content and pH decreased in all variants, but the activity of hydrolytic enzymes increased with time and was higher in variants with higher water content (70% and 75%); however, the activity of ligninolytic enzymes decreased during cultivation. The production of 1 kg of mushrooms generates about 5 kg of SMS. Vermicomposting is a natural method for processing SMS, as it involves a combination of earthworms, microorganisms and enzymatic activity; thus, we compared the differences between variants with and without earthworms using continuous feeding vermicomposters. The C:N ratio in the variant with earthworms radically decreased from 153.7:1 to 16.5:1. The ratio of bacteria to fungi in both variants was highest in the oldest compost layer in the vermicomposters. The variant without earthworms exhibited the highest enzymatic activity of beta-Dglucosidase and Mn-peroxidase, but the highest activity of cellobiohydrolase and laccase occurred in the variant with earthworms. The vermicomposting process is ideal for this type of biowaste, as it produces a fertilizer rich in beneficial microorganisms and enzymatic activity.
