Researches were carried out to find the optimal conditions of carbon sources, nitrogen sources and pH for the maximum production of sporophore of Lentinus edodes. Dextrin, aspartic acid and pH 4.0 were the best conditions for yield of sporophore by using replacement culture technique. The production of sporophore was stimulated by addition of 0.8% triacylglycerol in NS medium. Coffee waste was chosen for the best substrate among the poplar, oak, white aspen saw dust and coffee waste. Increased growth of mycelim and yield of sporophore was obsewed by adding tannin up to 0.1% as substrate.
