Mushroom Beds Boost Growth

Mushroom Beds Boost Growth

Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) and enoki (Flammulina filiformis) growing beds emit natural gases that made rice seedlings grow up to 67% larger without soil contact. This method could turn mushroom waste into a plant-boosting tool for early crop stages.
