At the end of the day, the confusion may come from unfamiliarity, and if it's local, maybe people will be able to tell what these things are at a glance. Regardless of whether this thing is dragon fruit or overlord flower, it is not a familiar thing to me, and it is understandable to have such confusion.

The point is what these things are, and it's understandable to study them as an interest, but it's completely unnecessary to continue to dwell on the tip of the horns, where do you have the spare time to worry about this? Whether it's overlord flower or dragon fruit, it's just to eat, if the fat man has the heart to study it. I haven't systematically learned botanical knowledge, so I really can't think of any good way to identify it, and besides, what is this thing will not have any impact on my production of dragon fruit at all, can I use it to get to the bottom of it?

If it is not for the sake of improving the quality, then it is because the root system of the overlord flower is more developed than that of dragon fruit, and the use of this thing can better absorb nutrients. In this way, when the dragon fruits from your own cuttings bloom again, you can compare the quality before and after grafting - if there is a control group with the same variety.

Just like my own grapes, they are grafted with mountain grapes, the intention is to use the root system of mountain grapes to develop energy, better absorb fertilizers, and reduce low temperature damage. Presumably, this dragon fruit is grafted with overlord flowers for this reason, otherwise there is no point in tossing such a cheap seedling?

When cultivating grapes on a large scale, they must also cultivate their own mountain grapes and keep them as rootstocks. It is impossible to wander the mountains in search of wild mountain grapes. But no one will sell mountain grapes to customers as family grapes. Or graft the grapes onto the grapes. That's really embarrassing!

It's like that Qi Dang, but fortunately he opened a store in the city, and most of the people who want to buy things from him may not be able to plant, and the things he buys back often die before they are revealed, so his store can be open for so long. If this is really a seed store, if you do this, I'm afraid that this product will be crippled long ago!

If you think about it this way, the one that broke off the flower before should be unmistakably the overlord flower. After all, to fake for such a thing. It's a little too unworthy, who is willing to spend that effort to fake like this?

In addition, the vitality of wild plants is relatively much stronger than that of domesticated crops, so why is it that overlord flowers are not more difficult to cut than dragon fruit, right?

Besides, these things themselves look very similar, and it should be understandable that the flowers that bloom are similar, but I don't know if the dragon fruit flowers can be eaten, so I still have to wait until I turn around and ask the fat man.

I remember that both the fat man and Zhu Zhicheng said that the overlord flower basically does not bear fruit, even if you take 10,000 steps back, even if this overlord flower can bear fruit in the space, the fruit should be different from the dragon fruit. By then, you should be able to know the answer. Although I broke off all the flowers of the overlord flower, I saw that there were still many small buds on it. I think it won't be long before it blooms again, so I'd better wait and see if this thing can bear fruit.

Xu Yi shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and continued to get busy.

The rest of the dragon fruits are all planted, and at a glance, they form a lush landscape full of huge white flowers. Of all the trees planted, perhaps only the climbing fleshy shrub of dragon fruit has the strongest smell, and although the black bees that are close at hand refuse to leave the nest, a few of them can be seen to be attracted to the flowers, busily collecting pollen and nectar on the flowers.

The only thing left to be planted is strawberries. However, those strawberries, Xu Yi also thought of a good place, and was ready to plant them directly on the top of the cellar.

The strawberry has a shallow root system, and even if it is not as magical as space, it will not affect the cellar itself, which is buried deep underground.

However, these are also two varieties, Xu Yi directly put all the ridges on the top of the cellar, and planted them sparsely at both ends of the cellar according to different varieties.

After cultivating the soil, Xu Yi directly poured space water on them, and saw that they grew rapidly, and the roots continued to grow new leaves, each plant quickly changed from four or five leaves to a large cluster, and there were straight flower stems and slender and soft stolons stretched out in the middle of the roots.

Strawberry breeding is actually very easy.

Although the seeds on the surface of strawberries that look like small black dots can also germinate and survive, the strawberries that are cultivated today are basically hybrids, and the seedlings raised from seeds are too slow to grow, and the traits are difficult to maintain, so basically no one will do this.

In addition to the factory production of strawberry seedlings using tissue culture in the laboratory, there are actually only two most common strawberry breeding methods. One is to divide the whole strawberry plant into several trees and replant it, but this method requires more strawberry plants, and it obviously affects the growth of strawberries, and the survival rate is difficult to control. However, the use of stolons to breed strawberries can effectively avoid the above shortcomings, as the stolons grow, a small seedling will grow on it at intervals like the original plant. Aerial roots will soon grow in the ground under these seedlings, and they will take root in the soil below, and they will be planted in about a week, and there is no need for the original plants to provide nutrients. At this time, the stolons can be cut off and the seedlings can be transplanted again where they are needed. Even if you only plant a strawberry, as long as it survives normally, it can grow into a large patch after a summer.

When cultivating normally, if there is no need for breeding, it is generally taken advantage of the fact that the stolons are still small, and they are directly cleaned up to avoid them consuming too many nutrients and affecting the development of strawberry fruits. If it is necessary to propagate in the summer, some stolons will be kept, and when the seedlings on top have grown to a certain extent, the stolons behind the seedlings will be buried in the soil. When the roots of these seedlings have matured, the stolons are cut off and the seedlings are transplanted again.

Xu Yi learned these from Li Chengxiang, so he didn't buy too many strawberries, and only bought about a dozen of each. He didn't have that much time to take care of it all the time, though, and the strawberries weren't too dense, so he left a few sticks aside for those that spread along the ridges. For the remaining stolons, Xu Yi waited until the seedlings on them grew to a certain extent, then pinched off the stolons and planted those seedlings directly in the empty place above the ridge.

He also tried to water these seedlings with space water, but he didn't find that the water had any effect on them, but he didn't know what the road was for.

The fruit trees are all planted, and the fragrance of various flowers is mixed together, which makes the smell of the surrounding space very attractive.

However, what Xu Yi expected was that in addition to the two boxes of bees that could still be seen flying around to collect honey, there were basically few of the two boxes of bees coming out to collect honey.

Such a large area of fruit forest will definitely not be pollinated well by relying only on those two boxes of bees, and if those two boxes of black bees are allowed to work like this, I am afraid that not many of these trees can bear fruit. So although he couldn't use honey for the time being, Xu Yi still didn't hesitate to open the two boxes of Italian bee beehives, and after cleaning up the beehives, he shook out all the honey inside.

Even the two boxes of bees he took the opportunity to check and make sure that the beehives that had been cut before and the bees that had just been brought in did not store much honey, and he gave up the idea of cutting honey, but he did not forget to add a few layers of beehives to them.

The beehives are cleaned, and the bees can't rest. When Xu Yi walked back after checking the lattice box, he found that the two boxes of black bees had also flown out of the beehive and flew towards the surrounding fruit trees to collect nectar.

Xu Yi smiled and walked back with confidence, this is really a bumper harvest!

Turning his head, Xu Yi remembered that the cucumbers and tomatoes he had planted before hadn't been checked, so he got up and walked there. It's been almost a month in this space, and I think the tomatoes should be ripe, and the cucumbers should climb up to the shelves on their own and be watered.

Quite far away, Xu Yi saw the tomatoes and cucumbers, but the situation seemed to be a little unexpected.

If you really count it, it has been less than a month since it was planted, and the leaves on the tomato seedlings have begun to turn yellow, and it looks like it is about to fall off the shelf.

If it weren't for the cucumbers that grew very luxuriantly next to it and were almost a meter tall on the shelf as a foil, Xu Yi wouldn't believe that he had planted them yesterday! What made Xu Yi most dissatisfied was that even if this tomato fell off the shelf, at least the tomato should be all ripe, right?

But when I looked at it this way, although the bunches of tomatoes on the branches were obviously not small, they had not grown much at all, and they were basically about the size of duck eggs.

What's even more unbelievable is that these tomatoes are all green, and they all look raw, which is not scientific!

Standing next to the tomato seedlings, Xu Yi carefully looked at the tomato in front of him.

Obviously, the tomatoes were all about the same, the seedlings had a somewhat lignified feeling, and even the lower leaves had fallen off completely. Or because of the watering space, the bunches of tomatoes on this plant take about the same amount of time to grow, so the size of the fruit is about the same. Although they look good, they are all round, and there are no cracks or spots on them, but the sepals on the top of these tomatoes have changed from green to black-brown, and they are not attached to the tomato, but curl up to the back. Xu Yi could even tell that even the stalk of the fruit had withered a little, and it was obvious that the fruit was completely dead.

It seems that this tomato is not sick, it is very likely that some factors caused the tomato to mature before it ripened. (To be continued......)
