Abstract EN
Medicinal mushrooms have been used in various treatments from a very long time, among which, Ganoderma lucidum is one of the most important medicinal mushroom.
It is cultivated worldwide to meet its ever-increasing demand in the market.
It is generally cultivated by bed log (Sawdust) and wood log (billet) method.
This study was an attempt to observe the growth performance of G.
lucidum on poplar billets (Populus deltoides) in the Sherpur Village (Dehradun) and Manjgaun village (Tehri Garhwal) of Garhwal Himalaya, India.
The farmers’ field with empty house/ rooms having proper growing conditions especially humidity and light were used for the cultivation of G.
lucidum.
The G.
lucidum spawn was inoc-ulated in poplar wood billets and these billets were installed in well prepared soil.
The results demon- strated that cropping cycle of G.
lucidum was shorter (132–136 days) in Sherpur Village (Dehradun) as compared to Manjgaun village (141–145 days) in Tehri Garhwal.
Further the results also revealed that yield was decreased in the subsequent flushes.
In Village Sherpur, the fruiting bodies of G.
lucidum were harvested between 64-66 days, 100-101 days and 135-136 days during first, second and third flush after the installation of billets, respectively.
However; in village Manjgaun, the fruiting bodies of G.
lucidum were harvested between 69 and 71 days, 107-108 days and 144-145 days in first, second and third after the installation of billets respectively.
Warmer temperature in Village Sherpur resulted in the early emer- gence and development of the fruiting bodies as compared to village Manjgaun where pinhead and fruit- ing body development was delayed due to the lower temperature during cropping cycle.
