PEMANFAATAN SERBUK KAYU JATI (Tectona grandis L.) YANG DIRENDAM DALAM AIR DINGIN SEBAGAI MEDIA TUMBUH JAMUR TIRAM (Pleurotus comunicipae)
Abstract: The
growth responds of Pleurotus comunicipae to the use of cold water-soaked
teakwood sawdust as a growth medium was investigated. Teakwood sawdust was
soaked in cold water during the time periods of 1, 3, 5 and 7 days) with ten
replications. Unsoaked teakwood sawdust was also prepared and used as a
control. Measurement variabels consisted of time required for a completely
covering mycelial growth, number of fruitbody, and fungal mass (green and dry
weight). Results showed that P. comunicipae placed on soaked teakwood sawdust
medium had a better growth than control (without soaking) medium. The medium
with increased soaking period produced a good growth ability of P.comunicipae.
At teakwood sawdust soaked for 7 days, the average of mycelial growth to cover
teakwood sawdust medium, number of fruiting bodies, green weight and dry weight
at the first harvesting were 52.6 days, 8.6 units, 100.5 grams and 13.4 grams,
respectively.
