In mycelium and recovery growth, growers must decide: how much water to give and what climate to maintain. Mistakes are punished immediately, but doing it right results in good yields.

In this module, you will learn the basics of climate in the growing room. You understand what happens in the climate unit and why the same temperature can still feel warmer or colder. What happens to the air when it is cooled down? Thanks to simple explanations, the complicated Mollier diagram becomes clear. For a mushroom grower, it is essential to understand the relationship between moisture in the air and air temperature.
E-Learning
The e-learning is based on the book “Mushroom Signals.” In this module, you will learn how the climate in the cultivation room is controlled. You will discover why minimum and maximum CO₂ levels are used, what the effects of cooling are, and whether it is possible to cool a cultivation room with warm outside air. All these questions and more are answered in the e-learning. Through simple explanations, you will gain an understanding of how the Mollier diagram works. If you have a climate computer, it will control the climate, but as a grower, you need to correctly operate the computer. If not done properly, it could lead to excessive energy use and adversely affect the quality of the mushrooms. The e-learning module takes about 2 hours to complete.
Webinar
During the online live training session, the e-learning component is explained and discussed in more detail by the trainer. Together with fellow students (maximum 15), you will discuss problems you encounter in daily practice. This exchange will help you assess and optimise your operational processes.
Training Growing
The “Mycelium growth and recovery” module is one of 7 modules covering the entire mushroom growing process. Other modules include:
After completing all modules, you will be able to understand the entire process and make adjustments if necessary, in order to produce the optimal mushrooms in the quality for your specific market.
