Sorry to say but button mushrooms can not be grown on roofs it requires special climate controlled rooms with enough ventilation and humidity, you can try growing oysters or milky or paddy straw mushrooms if u want to grow on the roof of ur house.

Hi

Button mushrooms require controlled environment conditions. button mushrooms are grown seasonally and in environment controlled cropping houses. White button mushroom requires 20-280 C for vegetative growth (spawn run) and 12-180 C for reproductive growth. Besides that it requires relative humidity of 80-90% and enough ventilation during cropping. Seasonally, it is grown during the winter months in the north-west plains of India and for 8-10 months in a year on the hills. However, with the advent of modern cultivation technology it is now possible to cultivate this mushroom anywhere in India.
Ooty 1 and Ooty (BM) 2 (released in 2002) are the two strains of button mushrooms released for commercial cultivation by the scientists of Horticulture Research Station of the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University at Vijayanagaram, Ooty. The strains which are mostly cultivated in India are S-11, TM-79 and Horst H3..

The whole process of mushroom production can be divided into the following steps:



(i) Spawn production

(ii) Compost preparation

(iii) Spawning

(iv) Spawn running

(v) Casing

(vi) Fruiting
