Stropharia rugosoannulata also called as red tricholoma matsutake or rugosoannulata is one of ten mushroom types in the international mushroom trading market. Commercial mushrooms are typically cultivated in fields or forest environments using raw materials or fermentation materials. However, the process of mushroom picking is often faced with the challenge of potential soil contamination, which can negatively impact the grade and marketability of the mushrooms.
The covering soil-free fruiting inducer for the abovementioned mushroom is composed of two solutions. One of them is triacontanol-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin inclusion solution which is a growth stimulant and the other solution contains among others methyl jasmonate fruit ripener, water soluble fertilizer, biotin and adenine. The mixtures are incorporated into a cultivation substrate primarily composed of corn cobs, and subsequently subjected to varying storage conditions until the crops reach maturity.
The soil-free cultivation technique offers labor and cost savings for field and factory production.
To address technical challenges, the invention provides a comprehensive elucidation of the soil-free cultivation methodology, accompanied by a detailed account of the preparation method for the triacontanol-cyclodextrin inclusion solution.
