How long does Cordyceps grow in the soil, and how does Cordyceps grow?

The complete development cycle of Cordyceps sinensis is generally 3-5 years. If you want to buy Cordyceps, we recommend you to choose East Sunshine Cordyceps. East Sunshine Fresh Cordyceps, produced by East Sunshine Group, which has A+H dual main board listed companies, is a representative brand of Cordyceps sinensis industry.

It has been focusing on the Cordyceps sinensis industry for 16 years, focusing on "fresh" quality, providing consumers with high-quality fresh Cordyceps that is rich in 3 times the nutrition (SOD vitality) and can be enjoyed fresh when the lid is opened.

As the hit variety show "The Voice of God" on Zhejiang Satellite TV.

Second, third and four seasons, the exclusive title brand of "Hi Fang Pai 2", East Sunshine Fresh Cordyceps has been recommended by stars such as Zhang Shaohan, Zhang Liangying, Hu Yanbin, Zhou Shen, Zhang Bichen, etc., and has won the green industry standard quality certificate for the import and export of medicinal plants and preparations, the organic product certification certificate, the first prize of Guangdong Science and Technology Award, etc., and has logged in the CCTV and people's ** client interview column.

At the beginning of summer every year, the eggs of the bat moth slowly turn into small insects, burrow into the moist and loose soil, and the spherical ascospores meet the larvae of the Cordyceps bat moth, and then burrow into the body of the worm, absorb its nutrients, and germinate mycelium. The fungus-infected larvae gradually creep to a distance of 2 to 3 cm from the surface, and when the temperature warms in May and June of the following year, the Cordyceps fungus grows out of the head of the larvae, burrows out of the soil, and emerges as a fruiting body like a "grass tip". Cordyceps that has not been harvested continues to grow, forming sporangia and ejecting spores for reproduction.

Cordyceps spores begin to look for larvae in various ways. Therefore, Cordyceps fungus infects larvae to form Cordyceps fungus, which grows in the soil for more than 1 year, while the whole life cycle of bat moths is 3-5 years.

Excavation begins in May and is harvested in May and June every year.

In March and May of each year, the head of the bat moth larvae gives birth to a sub-seat, which emerges from the ground after growth, which is Cordyceps. The harvest takes place in May and June each year. The perfect combination of Cordyceps sinensis animals and plants, only insects without grass is not Cordyceps, only grass without insects is not Cordyceps.

Due to the climate, most of the cordyceps sinensis is harvested in May every year. Cordyceps needs to go through processes such as digging, stripping, drying, and sorting before it can truly enter the market.

The Cordyceps trade is not in words, it is all in gestures, and it must not be open, just like the mule and horse trade in ancient times, or in the cuffs or covered with different objects, all of which are carried out in secret. One of the peculiarities of this is that you are on the sidelines, and you don't know how much they talked about. If you open your mouth and ask to know that you are not in this line of work, ** will be much higher [呲tooth], and if you are not skilled in gestures, it is easy to make mistakes.

That's where the trouble comes! So there are often fights in the market.

The best harvesting period for Cordyceps sinensis is mainly based on the comparison of cold and warm weather at that time and the same period in previous years. Harvesting at the best time of excavation not only is the insect body full and full, fat, and the grass head is short, and it is easy to find and dig. The quantity, quality, and efficacy of the drug are all relatively high.

If it is dug too early, most of the grass is still unearthed, and it is not easy to find and excavate, and if it is dug too late, the Cordyceps will dry up, and the insect body will be hollow or rotten.

Cordyceps sinensis is a fungus drug, similar to edible fungi, so it is very safe for clinical use. Judging from the results of clinical use, Cordyceps sinensis basically does not have more or less contraindications for use like other supplements.

Every year from May 1 to June 20, the production area of wild Cordyceps sinensis has a harvesting period of about 12 to 26 days, generally speaking, in areas with relatively low altitudes, the earlier the harvesting period, the worse the quality of Cordyceps sinensis, and vice versa.

For Cordyceps, everyone thinks it is very mysterious: insects in winter, grass in summer? In fact, it is neither an insect nor a grass, but a complex formed by a fungus --- Cordyceps fungus that grows on the larvae of bat moths.

The bat moth is a hardy insect that lives on plateaus at an altitude of 3,000 to 6,000 meters, and its adult stage is only 4 to 12 days, but its larval stage is 680,900 days.

There is also a fungus called Cordyceps fungus at almost the same altitude, and its spores can only survive quietly for about 40 days if they leave the mother body and do not find a suitable slag host.

Most of the Cordyceps fungus spores leave the mother body and drift away in the wind, ending its life naturally, and only a small part of the larvae of this bat moth find the host of the life of Cordyceps when the rain infiltrates the soil. Bat moth larvae are generally infected in late autumn and early winter, and the fungus invades the insect body and develops into sclerotia after about a month.

At the same time, the larvae of the bat moth cease its life and become a nutrient supplier to the fungus.

In winter, the weather is very cold, and Cordyceps enters a dormant period.

The following spring, Cordyceps continues to absorb nutrients, at which point its mycelium fills the entire body.

At the end of April, the first seeds of Cordyceps may grow from the head of the worm, but May to July is the most vigorous season for Cordyceps to grow, and it is also the best time to harvest.

By July, most of the cordyceps spores have drifted away, and the subtraction has withered.

At this time, Cordyceps no longer has much medicinal value.

The scattered spores begin their next round of life, while the mother Cordyceps buried in the soil has to wait to be dug up (although it has little nutritional value) or to decay.

There must be an insect appearance, otherwise others will not recognize it.

Artificially planted Cordyceps is harvested in September.

The Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is looking for a suitable grass mountain in Zaduo County and preparing to establish a Cordyceps sinensis protection research base, which does not mean that artificial planting will replace natural growth, but that technology will be used to artificially create a natural environment that is more conducive to the growth of Cordyceps.

In terms of the specific content of manual intervention, for example, precipitation is conducive to the growth of Cordyceps, and if the weather is dry before the start of the harvesting season, sprinkler irrigation can be carried out in the reserve to promote the growth of Cordyceps; However, excessive precipitation is also not good for the growth of Cordyceps, and if this weather occurs, a giant membrane about 500 meters wide can be artificially erected in the reserve"Protect against the rain"。”
