Coffee cherry husk as a substrate for oyster mushroom production
Pleurotus sajor-caju was grown using a standard polypropylene bag method containing coffee cherry husk (500 g dry weight basis, 1.5 kg wet weight basis), which had been subjected to hot water treatment for 15-20 min. The substrate was inoculated with spawn (5 percent, wet weight basis) using a triple layer spawning technique, and kept at room temperature. Fruiting bodies were observed 14-15 days after inoculation, with a mean yield of 238.4 g/bag.
