Golden spots on mushrooms – what to do?

Below we publish comment-advise of our consultant Iurie Boiciuc.

I recently received lots of photos with golden spots on mushrooms – this is the bacterium pseudomonas gingeri. It usually appears at the beginning of the first flash, a few spots – and then the number increases. On the next flashes, spots are no longer there. Of course, this is a problem with the casing soil.But mushroom producers can take the following steps to reduce the number and distribution:

  1. Water with chlorinated water.
  2. Avoid watering over the mushrooms.
  3. It is nice to make good separation – so that air passes between mushrooms.
  4. Work at lower humidity.
  5. Monitor evaporation.
  6. Try not to lose compost activity during mushroom formation to preserve the delta.
  7. Use Armex.

Want to get more detailed advice on these and other issues? Iurie Boiciuc can visit your farm or consult online. If you write to UMDIS (+380935690941, Viber, WhatsApp, Telegram) – we can teach you how to have better yield even on not the best compost and casing.
