Delmastro Biología waste recycling Oyster mushrooms Salvia offi cinalis plant pot cultivation spent mushroom substrate Disposal of spent mushroom substrates can pose a problem to the environment. The reusein crop production by its recycling as an ingredient of growing mixes would providean environmentally safe disposition. We show the use of Pleurotus sp. spent substrate,obtained after cultivation on a sunfl ower seed hulls based substrate and mixed withorganic soil from local nurseries. Salvia offififi cinalis was used to study plant growth inpot cultivation under greenhouse conditions. Treatments were: C, control (soil used in alocal nursery); T1, soil : Pleurotus spent substrate (2:1 v/v); and T2, equivalent to T1, butusing washed Pleurotus spent substrate in order to reduce its salt content. T1 substratehad 3.3 times higher electrical conductivity (7 mS cm-1) than that of the control, which ishigh for the growth of most plants. Air porosity was greater in T1 (7.4%) and T2 (10.2%)than the control (2.8%). The content of certain nutrients also increased with regard tothe control, such as phosphorus and sulphur (T1 and T2 substrates), as well as potassium(T1 substrate). After growing 29 days on T1 substrate, plants showed a marked increasein biomass (ca. 21%, p < 0.05) and some minerals compared to the control. T2 plantsgrew poorly, possibly because of nitrogen defi cit. T1 substrate was adequate to sustain thegrowth of S. offififi cinalis plants in pots, by improving air porosity and mineral content. 2008 artículo científico 1534-2581 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=68520102 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=685 Micología Aplicada International application/pdf Colegio de Postgraduados Micología Aplicada International (México) Num.1 Vol.20 |
