PERBANDINGAN PERTUMBUHAN JAMUR TIRAM PUTIH DI KUMBUNG CISEENG DAN UNIVERSITAS AL-AZHAR INDONESIA
ABSTRACT: White oyster
mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is one of wood fungi which easy to grow at
rotting wood and organic waste. White oyster mushroom is rich in protein,
carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. Environmental factors affecting the
growth of white oyster mushrooms is temperature and humidity. The study aims to
compare the growth and production of white oyster mushroom in different
location, Ciseeng and University of Al-Azhar Indonesia (UAI). Cultivation in
UAI done in a controlled situation using autoclave sterilization, inoculation
using enkas and the treatment is watering on gunny sack in the mushroom house
regularly. Whereas, cultivation in Ciseeng less controlled by traditional
cultivation using steam sterilization and inoculation process at open space.
Wet weight, dry weight, and biological efficiency results is higher in UAI than
Ciseeng at 7.95%, 14.5%, and 7.34% higher, respectively. Morphological
parameter such as number of fruiting body, mushroom cap diameters, and stem
lenght also show better in UAI than Ciseeng at 23.67%, 8.75%, 54.96% higher,
respectively. Better result of mushroom cultivation at UAI supported by 28.3oC
average temperature and 93.95% humidity, meanwhile in Ciseeng average
temperature and humidity was 29.25oC and 82.15%.
