Alpine Orchard

Chapter 235 Don't Be So Tired
Ye Mo's workers are all from the countryside and are familiar with farm work.

There is not much work in the melon field.

For the work on Ye Mo's side, the second uncle, the third uncle, and Tang Xun's family were invited to come over.But to work, it is not enough to have more people, but to be efficient.

Xiaomian's parents are also helping me with the melon fields. They work until after eleven o'clock in the morning, come out after two o'clock in the afternoon, and finish work after seven o'clock... tens of acres of melon fields are finished.

These people work really fast.

If you call Second Uncle, Third Uncle and Tang Xun, they will probably only be able to do three-fifths of it in a day.

Lin Shan took a notebook and recorded the time when everyone went to work, and looked at Ye Mo: "Go and help Tang Ming's orchard fertilize tomorrow?"

"Well. Uncle Tang and the others have been here to help for a long time. They are busy there, so go over and help." Ye Mo said: "You don't have to go all over, just send the male workers over."

Lin Shan nodded.

The next day, Lin Shan took the male workers to the production team.

Ye Mo took the female worker to trim the Jiabao fruit tree.

Ye Mo read on the Internet how to prune Jiabao fruit trees, and what he said was to have 'circle on the outside and hollow on the inside'.

Jiabao fruit mainly bears fruit on large branches and trunks, and the fruiting parts require ventilation and light transmission.

These Jiabao fruit trees are not managed very much, and there are many small branches.Also because there is not much management, the result part is mainly the main trunk part.Dense branches, not much fruit inside...

The branches of fruit trees include weak twigs, cross branches, clustered branches, etc.These branches are basically useless to the Jiabao fruit, but will consume the nutrients of the fruit tree, causing the inside of the fruit tree to be airtight.

Ye Mo demonstrated and explained to everyone in the orchard.

Lin Xiaomian teased the bird beside her.There used to be one Xiaobai, but now there are two Xiaobai.

Xiaobai still likes to be close to Lin Xiaomian.The other little white, which is slightly smaller, will occasionally fly to Lin Xiaomian's shoulder...

There are two shrikes with a pleasant call.Lin Xiaomian teased Xiaoniao beside her, attracting everyone's attention.

Ye Mo then distributed electric pruning shears to everyone, trimmed a few templates, and everyone just followed suit.

Keep large branches, cut small branches, weak branches, etc.The clustered branches of the crown can be trimmed by a quarter.Then use bamboo poles to prop up the remaining main branches, leaving enough space for the main branches.

Irrigated by Lingquan, Jiabao fruit trees also grow very fast.Some good-growing Jiabao fruit trees need a ladder to prune.

The two Shrikes flew away.

Lin Xiaomian also came over to get the pruning shears, and earnestly pruned the fruit trees.

From time to time, Ye Mo looked at the fruit trees that everyone had pruned, and when he saw that everyone was able to do it, he gave Lin Xiaomian a wink.

Lin Xiaomian came over with some doubts, and whispered, "What are you doing?"

"Go to Tang Xun's side and have a look."

"Is there anything nice over there?"

"Mom, Xiao Mian and I went to Tang Xun's side to have a look." Ye Mo said.

"Go."

"The Jiabao fruit on the tree is all picked after the branches are pruned." Ye Mo said.

"Pick the immature ones too?"

"Yes, I picked them all. These fruit trees bloom one after another, so it's useless to keep them. All the small flowers on the trees are also removed, and they will bloom and bear fruit later." Ye Mo said.The Jiabao fruit here can be picked in batches every few days, but each batch is very small...

Prune first, then fertilize and water.There should be more flowers in the next batch, and when they mature again, they can be sold if there are more flowers.

Xiao Mian's mother nodded without asking why.

Ye Mo pulled Lin Xiaomian out of the Jiabao Orchard: "What are you doing?" Lin Xiaomian said, "Go to Tang Xun's house to work, and they are fertilizing over there. Do you want to help with fertilization?"

"Play in the past." Ye Mo said: "We have hired workers, so let's take it easy and be lazy if you can."

"But my mother..."

"Tell Mom if you have time, we are all bosses now." Ye Mo said: "Except for the urgent work on the melon field, other jobs can be done slowly. You also tell your parents not to work too hard , rest when you should rest."

"That's not good." Lin Xiaomian pursed her lips.

Ye Mo looked at her small appearance and said, "Stop laughing. You can't wait to sleep at home every day."

Lin Xiaomian's beautiful eyes glanced at Ye Mo, and then he laughed: "Let's go, go to Tang Xun's house to play."

The two washed their hands on the side of the road, went home and changed their clothes, and drove to the mountain.

In the mango orchard on the side of the production team, mangoes have just started to hang on the trees, and there are densely packed small mangoes that are a little bit bigger.

Their management here is better, and they preserve both flowers and fruits, maybe... plus Ye Mo's credit for pouring more than 1000 liters of spiritual springs into the reservoir, there are especially many fruits on the trees.

On May Day, many people think of holidays and travel.

But in most rural areas, May Day is a busy time for farming.

Some places are busy sowing rapeseed, some places are busy transplanting rice seedlings...

On their side, they are busy fertilizing the fruit trees and combing the fruit.

The mangoes on the tree are basically firm.

Regardless of the habit or other fruit trees, after the flowers start to wither, it belongs to the fruit setting period.The melons and fruits at this time are not firm. If they are not managed well, these small melons and fruits are easy to fall off.

Only after a period of time, if there are still hanging melons and fruits that have not fallen, it means that the defeat has been confirmed.

The melons and fruits that sit firmly will not fall easily under normal circumstances.

But there are too many mangoes on the trees here, and the root system of the mango tree is not developed enough.If there are too many fruits, if the fruits are not combed in time, the nutrition behind cannot keep up, and the fruits will still fall.

The people in the production team are busy combing fruit and fertilizing.

For fruit farmers, who doesn't like the high yield of their fruit trees.But compared with high yield, quality... is actually more important.

The price of a good-looking mango can vary several times.

Last year, the mango yield here was about [-] catties per mu.This year... everyone expects the output to be more than [-] catties.

There are many fruits on the tree, more than one thousand catties, which seems to be an easy task now.But to ensure the quality, until now, many people are struggling with how much fruit should be left.

In the pomegranate garden on Tang Xun's side, there are still sparse pomegranate flowers on the trees.Small pomegranates on the tree, more.

Ye Mo's parents, second and third uncles are all here.

Lin Shan brought seven more strong labors over...

Ye Ran and Chen Chen were driving an excavator in the orchard, digging fertilizer pits.Just dig, don't bury...

How many holes are dug, and then fertilizer will come.Fertilizer is given, and then the pit is filled, which is very fast.

Too many people, not enough life.

Zhang Xia and Wang Yue were sitting next to the orchard drinking tea, chatting and taking care of their baby.

"Zhang Xia, Miss Yue." Lin Xiaomian shouted.

Tang Tian saw Lin Xiaomian and stretched out her hand: "Ma'am, give me a hug."

Lin Xiaomian went over and hugged Tang Tian with a smile: "Xiao Tiantian, do you miss your lady?"

"think."

"You came just in time, I'm going to make lunch, help me make lunch." Wang Yue looked at Lin Xiaomian and said.

"Look how pretty I'm wearing... I'm here to play and ask Zhang Xia to cook for you."

"Then help me with the baby."

"this is okay."

Tang Xun came over, and there were several big watermelons in the car, which were placed beside the orchard: "Why are you here?"

"Come and have a look." Ye Mo said.

There were a lot of people here, so Wang Yue and the others went back to prepare lunch.

Tang Xun threw a cigarette to Ye Mo, and said with a smile, "Look at the pomegranates on my side, there are a lot of knots."

"What's the use of having too many knots? It's your ability to manage them." Ye Mo said.

"I heard from Chen Chen that they have to pick half of the mango trees and throw them away, and then they have to select the fruit." Tang Xun said, "I feel that these pomegranate trees are quite big. Can we keep some more pomegranates?"

"I don't know." Ye Mo shrugged.

Pomegranates are managed differently than mangoes.

If the mango is firm, it is not easy to drop the fruit normally.

But pomegranates...

Pomegranates bloom a lot and shed a lot.The fruit setting period is relatively long...

The small pomegranates on the tree should still be in the fruit-setting period.During the fruit setting period, the fruit is unstable and falls easily.

Ye Mo said: "When the technician comes back from vacation, you can ask."

"I read on the Internet that pomegranates are particularly prone to fruit drop. I am afraid that after combing the fruit, the fruit on the top will start to fall again." Tang Xun said.

The pomegranate trees here are growing very well, with luxuriant branches and leaves.But there are not many big branches, they are all small branches, and I am afraid that there will be too many fruits and the nutrition of the tree will not be enough.

　The cold is not good, so I went to get an injection today.Annoyed.
