More abundant and vigorous harvests: provides essential calcium and sulfur that strengthen the mycelium from the base, ensuring healthy development and a much more productive and consistent mushroom yield.
Agricultural gypsum, also known as hydrated calcium sulfate (CaSO₄·2H₂O), is a natural additive widely used in the cultivation of mushrooms and edible fungi. This product contains an average of 22% calcium and 18% sulfur, minerals that are essential for the nutrition and development of mycelium.
In substrate preparation, gypsum serves a dual purpose: it provides nutrients that can be directly used by the mycelium and improves the physical properties of the substrate, promoting aeration and structure.
Main benefits:
- Calcium and sulfur supply: essential for the health and development of mycelium.
- Improved performance: promotes more vigorous growth and higher productivity.
- Optimizes substrate structure: promotes aeration and prevents compaction.
- Natural product: mineral-based and free of chemical additives.
This agricultural gypsum comes in 10 kg bags, ready to be added to substrate mixtures for the cultivation of species such as Pleurotus (oyster mushroom), Lentinula edodes (shiitake) and other lignicolous mushrooms.
An essential supplement for growers looking to improve the quality and yield of their crops.

- Substrates and additives for cultivation
Gypsum provides essential calcium and sulfur, improves the physical structure of the substrate, and promotes more vigorous and faster mycelium growth.
Calcium sulfate acts as a stabilizer or buffer, preventing the substrate from becoming too acidic without drastically increasing the pH, unlike lime.
It is generally recommended to add between 2% and 5% of the total dry substrate weight for optimal results in most crops.
Yes, gypsum prevents grains or substrate components from sticking together, improving aeration and facilitating mycelium colonization.
Yes, as it is a natural mineral (calcium sulfate), it is a safe additive widely used in organic and ecological farming practices.
