In Colombia, a great amount of waste is generated during the cut-off and harvest stages in flowers culture. This study examines the possibility of degrading Chrysanthemum wastes by using Pleurotus ostreatus, Trametes versicolor, and Phanerochaete chrysosporium cultures; this has not been studied previously. The initial effect of fungi on the degradation of Chrysanthemum wastes were studied individually and in co-cultures. The highest degradation was by P. ostreatus. After that, the influence of pH and waste, copper, and manganese concentrations on reducing sugars concentration were determined in a submerged culture in 100 mL Erlenmeyer flasks. There was a significant effect of manganese and waste concentrations on sugar concentration, while the effect of copper concentration and pH were not significant. Following, the process was carried out in a 1.5 L reactor at the optimal values of the variables studied in Erlenmeyer flask but varying air injection from 0 to 2 vvm. The highest concentration of sugars was 21.2 g/L with 78% of glucose content at 6.3% w/v of waste, 7.5 mM of Mn and Cu and 2 vvm of air injection. Finally, laccase, Manganese peroxidase, endo-1,4-${eta}$-glucanase, exo-1,4-${eta}$-glucanase and 1,4-${eta}$-glucosidase were detected in the extract obtained under these conditions. The highest activities were obtained for laccase (4,694 U/L) and 1,4-${eta}$-glucosidase (9,513 U/L).
