Calcium Carbonate powder 100 gr

Calcium carbonate powder is an essential supplement in the cultivation of edible mushrooms and fungi, especially suitable for adjusting and stabilizing the pH of the substrate, ensuring an optimal environment for mycelium development.

Many natural substrates tend to be acidic, which can hinder the healthy growth of fungi. Calcium carbonate acts as a buffer agent, raising and maintaining the pH in a slightly alkaline range (approximately 6.5 - 7.5), ideal for species such as Pleurotus (oyster mushroom) or champignon.

Its main benefits include:

• pH regulation: raises and maintains the optimum level for mushroom growth.
• Promotes mycelium colonization: a stable pH stimulates faster and healthier development.
• Prevention of contamination: by hindering the growth of molds and bacteria that prefer acidic environments.
• Calcium supply: contributes in small amounts to the structural development of mushrooms.

This product comes in a 100 g bag of high-purity calcium carbonate powder, easy to dose and mix with the substrate.

Ideal for growers looking to optimize their substrate conditions and obtain healthier, more productive harvests.
