Growth Parameters:
Temperature:
Ideal: 11°c-18°C.
Too high or too low: Can inhibit growth and fruiting.
Temperature changes: A sudden drop in temperature can be used to trigger pinning (the formation of small mushroom “knobs”).
Humidity:
Ideal: 85-90%.
Importance: High humidity prevents the mushrooms from drying out, which can negatively affect texture and flavor.
Air Exchange:
Importance: Sufficient fresh air is needed to reduce carbon dioxide levels and prevent misshapen mushrooms.
Rate: 4-8 air changes per hour are recommended.
Light:
Requirement: King oysters need some light to fruit, but not direct sunlight.
Level: 500-1000 lux is generally suitable.
