Leisure little landlord
Chapter 23 Planting Melons
() Leisurely days always pass quickly, and three days passed in a blink of an eye. Li Jiahao went to his room. Now he lives in the old house, which is the newly renovated house he recently renovated.Living in my own old house is convenient, no one cares when I go to bed.The meal was still eaten at the third uncle's house. He actually wanted to cook it by himself, but every time when eating, that girl Jiahui and the third aunt would call him to eat.
He went straight to the little elephant's residence. There were many rooms in his own house, and he reserved a room for the little elephant.The little whirlwind is in the kennel in the yard.I saw Xiaodian dashing to Li Jiahao's feet, hugging Li Jiahao's leg and screaming, obviously wanting bamboo shoots again.Li Jiahao almost stepped on Xiaodiandian, he said distressedly and angrily: "You little thing, you deserve it for trampling to death." As he said that, he tore off the bamboo shoots and threw them to Li Jiahao, Xiaodiandian happily gnawed on the bamboo shoots and chirped.
Thinking about it for a few days, Li Jiahao didn't care about the money turtle. When he entered the space, he saw the money turtle eating small fish in the clear spring. He saw a palm-sized crucian carp with half of the money turtle on its back. He didn't want to care about it anymore. , Let the money turtle eat freely, anyway, there are a lot of fish and eels in Qingquan.
Walk out of the space, enter the little elephant's residence, see the little elephant eating grass, and see Li Jiahao walking to the side, the little elephant wraps its trunk around Li Jiahao's waist, and rubs its head on Li Jiahao's body to express welcome.This little elephant really likes itself, from the moment it wrapped around Li Jiahao's leg, it probably knew that Li Jiahao was its master in this life.Li Jiahao touched the little elephant's head and said with a smile, "Hehe, do you like me?"
The little elephant seemed to be able to understand, rubbed its body back and forth on Li Jiahao's body, and used its nose up and down in the air, playing around.Li Jiahao saw that there was no water in the little elephant's basin, so he quickly scooped up spiritual water in the basin. The little elephant was very happy when he saw that there was water, and drank a lot with his nose.
Just after feeding the elephant and preparing to leave, I saw a group of children coming in. The children hugged a lot of grass, saying that they came to feed the elephant. Seeing a puppy in the yard, a five-year-old named Li Ming Wanting to hug Xiao Xuanfeng, Xiao Xuanfeng saw that someone wanted to hug him, so he was reluctant, so he hurriedly yelled, ran to Li Jiahao's legs, and spun around Li Jiahao's legs.
"Uncle Jiahao, the puppy won't let me hold it." Li Ming said.
"It's fine if you don't let me hug it, but feed the baby elephant." Li Jiahao said.
Now the baby elephant is more and more able to eat, and the appetite is bigger. Anyway, I am busy, so I let the children feed them. Anyway, those bear children are not yet in the grade of school, and it is a good time to play.
Walking out of the elephant house, Li Jiahao looked at the melon seeds he had planted a few days ago, opened the towel, and saw that the germination rate was good.Smiling and humming a song, I was about to plant melons.
Li Jiahao sows melon seeds using traditional methods.First wash the melon seeds with clean water to wash off the sweetness of the skin of the melon seeds.Then soak the melon seeds in warm water, the water should not be too cold or too hot.If it is too cold, the sprouts will grow slowly, and if it is too hot, the seeds will be scalded to death.Then the towel is boiled and wrung out until there is no dripping water, spread out, and boiling means disinfection.Put the seeds evenly on 1/2 towel, take a bamboo chopstick and place it in the middle of the towel, cover the other 1/2 towel, roll it into a roll, tie both ends with rubber bands, and place the towel roll on an airtight transparent plastic In the bag, the bag is naturally inflated, the bag mouth is tied tightly, put it in the bosom or a quilt, and the bag mouth is loosened once a day for ventilation.It can germinate in a few days.
Li Jiahao took two towels wrapped with melon seeds, because he wanted to grow a lot of melons, including watermelons, melons, vegetable melons, and noodle melons. I like melons the most, so there must be a variety of them, which is convenient for me to eat. Only sell it.
Taking the melon seeds, I walked to the third uncle's house. The third uncle and grandpa had already set up the melon shed, and they put it on the sun-drying field of their own home.The melon sheds in Litang Village are generally built with bamboo. This kind of bamboo is everywhere in the mountains and plains, and it is called moso bamboo.Moso bamboo is also known as "Nan bamboo", "Meng Zong bamboo", "Jiangnan bamboo" and "Mao bamboo".Since ancient times, it has been often placed in garden winding paths, poolsides, streams, hillsides, stone traces, patios, scenic doors, and indoor potted plants for viewing.It is often planted together with pine and plum, and is known as the "Three Friends of Sui Han".Hairless and pollen-free.
The temperature inside the greenhouse was much higher than outside, and Li Jiahao's forehead was faintly sweating.In the greenhouse there is the fertilizer that Uncle San mixed up in the morning, and they are now filling the small black plastic bowls they bought with soil until they are full.After all the plastic bowls are filled with soil, put the germinated melon seeds into the small plastic bowls.Then use a plastic film to build a small shed, and place the plastic bowls filled with melon sprouts in the shed in order.Water it with a watering can when dry.Li Jiahao rushed to do the watering, because he wanted to water it with the spiritual water in his own space, so that the melons would not only grow well, but would also be extra sweet.This is called vegetative seeding.There is another kind of seed sowing, but this is nearly a month later than nutrient sowing.
Seed sowing means to sow the well-developed melon sprouts directly in the prepared field. If the conditions are good, they can be covered with film, and if the conditions are not good, they will not be covered.Wait until the buds grow out of the soil.This method of sowing is prone to missing seeds.Because there are many animals that specialize in eating seeds, such as squirrels, mice and some insects.
After the seeds are planted, the organic fertilizers will start to be sorted out. If you want the melons and fruits to be sweet, chicken manure and pig manure are generally better.
Chicken manure and pig manure cannot be scattered directly on the ground, they must be fermented and decomposed.Li Jiahao's family uses pig manure, and there is a lot of pig manure anyway.The pig manure is piled up and covered with a thick plastic film, and the hot air inside bakes the pig manure, so that the pig manure can be used after it is fermented and decomposed.Now that the conditions are better, there is plastic film. When it was not available before, the villagers used large bamboo steamers, and pig manure was steamed on top of the steamer.
Fermented and decomposed manure must be used to grow melons, because the manure that has not been decomposed is directly applied to the soil. First, it is fermented with water to produce high temperature, which is easy to burn the roots and seedlings.The second is that microorganisms participate in fermentation and a large number of activities consume oxygen and cause soil hypoxia, which will lead to the death of weaker crops.The third is that feces will produce odor during fermentation, attract fly maggots, endanger crop growth, and odor can also pollute the environment.Therefore, it is necessary to apply fully decomposed organic fertilizers to ensure good crop growth and development.
After the pig manure was done, it was time to prepare the land again, and then use a plow to form the land into rows and put it there.The land for growing melons is very particular. Generally, corn land is the most ideal, followed by peanut and Gantz land.In recent years, vegetable fields and soybean fields are not suitable for growing watermelons.Sandy loam is best, followed by loam.Watermelons and melons are not cold-resistant and are afraid of waterlogging. They need sufficient sunlight throughout the growing season. Therefore, the site selection should choose a plot with sufficient sunlight, high terrain, and convenient drainage.
Choose the right land and stick to crop rotation.Continuous cropping is the most taboo for growing watermelons, and crop rotation must be implemented.The interval between planting watermelons is at least three years, preferably five years.Implement deep plowing, broken soil, and furrowing.In particular, the watermelon has a well-developed root system and a deep and wide distribution, so the melon field must be deeply plowed in the first year.Put the finely ground peanut bran and high-quality soil miscellaneous fertilizer into the hole, and mix well with fine soil.Do not rake the soil after plowing, let the soil fully ripen.When the temperature in spring stabilizes above 15C in the morning, start to grow watermelons.In fertilization, more high-quality peanut bran or sesame bran should be applied as base fertilizer to make squash less fiber, more water, crisp and sweet.
After everything was done, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and that girl Jiahui was about to leave school.Third Aunt and Nainai were about to cook dinner, while Third Uncle, Grandpa and Li Jiahao were chatting and smoking.
"Boy, are you tired of doing farm work today?" Grandpa asked with concern.
"Why are you tired? I'm not tired. I'm so young. Besides, didn't I often do this kind of thing when I was young? I didn't feel tired before, and I don't feel tired now." Li Jiahao said while smoking a cigarette with a smile.
"Well, we're going to plant sweet potatoes tomorrow. Anyway, the melon seedlings will take a month to grow. You don't need to plant too many sweet potatoes, just half an acre is enough to eat." The third uncle said while smoking a cigarette with a smile.
"Okay, no problem." Li Jiahao said with a smile.
;
He went straight to the little elephant's residence. There were many rooms in his own house, and he reserved a room for the little elephant.The little whirlwind is in the kennel in the yard.I saw Xiaodian dashing to Li Jiahao's feet, hugging Li Jiahao's leg and screaming, obviously wanting bamboo shoots again.Li Jiahao almost stepped on Xiaodiandian, he said distressedly and angrily: "You little thing, you deserve it for trampling to death."
