Abstract

Enoki mushrooms have a fairly high economic potential in the consumption market share, especially for Japanese and Korean dishes. However, in Indonesia not many people cultivate this fungus because the requires special temperature treatment. This research aims to find the most effective treatment of temperature and composition of planting media between sengon wood sawdust and straw for cultivating enoki mushrooms so that they can grow rapidly in Indonesia. The method used in this research is an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with two factors, namely temperature treatment and planting media of sengon sawdust with straw. The data collection method was carried out directly in the laboratory to measure the width of mycelium growth, temperature, humidity, and composition of the growing media. Mycelium growth at 3:1 composition has a relatively higher growth rate at 13.9℃ temperature and 96.5% humidity.
 Keywords: Enoki mushroom, sawdust, straw, temperature, mycelium, treatment
