Bamboo fungus grows in old bamboo forests

Bamboo fungus belongs to the mesophilic fungus, which generally grows in the surface layer of the soil underneath the leaves of the bamboo, and it is not easy to find out that the fungus balls are egg-shaped, white, grayish-brown, or reddish in color, and there is a fungus cord that goes deep into the soil to absorb nutrients. Bamboo fungus in the wild environment, after the nature's superiority test, there is no lack of some extremely hardy or heat-resistant varieties. For example, the wild bamboo fungus found in March 2018 in Shunchang County, Fujian Province, grew and developed at a normal rate, while the local average temperature in February was all of 15 degrees Celsius lower.

Appropriate temperature for the growth of bamboo fungus:

Bamboo fungus growing in bamboo forests usually opens its skirts around 9 a.m. The mycelium opens its widest at 9:30-10:00 a.m., and the mycelium begins to shrink after 10 a.m. The growth temperature of bamboo fungus mycelium is 4℃-28℃, and the most suitable growth temperature for bamboo fungus is 20℃-23℃. When the temperature is lower than 16℃ or higher than 36℃, the growth of bamboo fungus slows down obviously.

The most suitable temperature for the formation of bamboo fungus fruiting bodies is 20℃-24℃, if the temperature is higher than 28℃, the formation of fruiting bodies slows down and the growth rate becomes weaker, and when the temperature is lower than 15℃, the eggs of bamboo fungus shrivels up or deforms in the later stage. Bamboo fungus is best suited to grow in semi-yang and semi-shady bamboo forests with diffused light. Bamboo forests where bamboo fungus grows are generally darker, and places with strong or too dark light are not favorable for the growth of bamboo fungus, this is because bamboo fungus buds and fruiting bodies need diffused light during their growth.
