Hydrated Lime(Caho2) for Mushroom and Fish Farming

Sold by Aston Zion · Kasoa

Never use quicklime (CaO) — it can burn mycelium and is unsafe. Correct usage for sawdust substrate (oyster mushrooms) Since you’re working with sawdust + bran in Ghana, this is the standard rate: Hydrated lime: 0.5–1% of dry substrate weight Example: 100 kg dry sawdust → 0.5–1 kg hydrated lime Mix it dry with sawdust and bran first, then add water. Final substrate pH should be around 6.5–7.5.
