The Effect of Fertilization with Spent Mushroom Substrate and Traditional Methods of Fertilization of Common Thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) on Yield Quality and Antioxidant Properties of Herbal Material

Abstract: This experiment was designed to determine the effect of spent mushroom substrate, farmyard manure, and mineral fertilization with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium on the yield and quality of raw material obtained from two cultivars (“Słoneczko” and “De Dolj”) of common thyme. Unfertilized plots with thyme crops were included as the control treatment. Different row spacings (30 cm and 40 cm) represented the second experimental factor. The highest total yield of thyme raw material was found in the treatment w… Show more

“…It was accumulated in the greatest amounts following the application of chicken manure or bovine manure. Chicken manure has been described as a potential source of phosphorus for plants by Materechera et al [50] and Dró żd ż et al [51], while according to Kwiatkowski et al [52], bovine manure and spent mushroom substrate can also be important sources of phosphorus. The present study also showed that phosphorus uptake by test plants was significantly correlated with the yield and content of this element (Table 7).…”

“…For instance, Medina et al (2012) showed that waste mushroom residue application can enhance soil nutrients and enzyme activities [35]. Kwiatkowski et al (2021) found that waste mushroom residue application can improve yield quality [36]. Ma et al (2021) observed that the application of mushroom residue can improve soil nutrients, enhance leaf nutrients, and suppress weeds [37].…”

“…At the same time, spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is a residual material remaining after the harvest: 5 kg of SMS is produced from 1 kg of mushroom harvest. SMS is an alternative animal feed and manure source for horticultural crops [ 125 , 126 , 127 ]. Compost temperature, average pH, and microaerobic conditions accelerated the LAB growth in SMS.…”
