Abstract: The present experiment entitled “Studies on nutrition supplementation for production of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus florida)” was under taken with the aim to determine the growth and yield of mushroom. There are different organic substrates i.e. wheat straw, Soybean straw, moong bean straw, urd bean straw, Sorghum stem (chopped), Maize stem (chopped), Pigeon pea stalk, Cotton stalk and Safflower straw and different supplementation; Wheat bran, Rice bran, Maize bran, Neem cake, Oil cake, Glucose, Dextrose, Ammonium sulphate, Ammonium nitrate Urea, and Poultry manure were used for production. The minimum days of spawn run (18.75) was recorded with moong bean straw substrate. While, the maximum number of primordial (177), number of pin heads (164.75), number of fruiting body (68.50), diameter of fruiting body (8.25 cm), stripe length (3.43 cm) and Yield (579.75 g) were recorded with wheat straw substrate. On the effect of carbon, nitrogen and cakes supplementation on wheat straw, the minimum days of spawn run was recorded with oil cake 5%. While, the different quantity parameters were recorded number of maximum primordial and pin head on maize bran 5%, maximum number of fruiting body and diameter of fruiting body on dextrose 5%, stripe length maximum on maize bran 5% and maximum yield significant on dextrose 5%.
