This study sought to determine the optimal mixing ratio of Korean cultivated Artemisia annua for production of functional oyster mushrooms. After 23 days of cultivation, mycelial growth was 12.7 cm in medium supplemented with 5% A. annua and 12.5 cm in control. Mycelial growth progressively slowed with the addition of A. annua, with barely any growth (2.1 cm) in the presence of 70% A. annua. Mycelial density was high density without significant difference between treatments. The pileus diameter was greater in the presence of A. annua than in the control, but the pileus thickness was only slightly higher compared to the control. The stipes thickness was greatest for 15% A. annua, and the length of stipes was longest at 10% A. annua, but was lower than the value of the control. The L value of the fruiting zone was highest 10% firewood, and the L value of freshwater was highest at 5% A. annua. The fruiting body yield was highest to (122 g/850 ml) in medium supplemented with 5% A. annua but markedly decreased at higher levels of A. annua.
