The remaining seeds Xu Yi naturally didn't plan to make dumplings anymore, and Xu Yi still understood the truth of being greedy and chewing too much.

According to the mathematical combination, you can make countless kinds of dumpling fillings with these seeds and materials alone, how can you do this!

Xu Yi checked that there were really many kinds of seeds left by the old lady, even watermelon and melon seeds.

Melon seeds and cucumber seeds, which belong to the same genus Cucumber, are basically the same in size, shape and color, which is quite confusing. Even Xu Yi, who grew up in the countryside, just saw the seeds of the melon in this gourd, and directly regarded it as cucumber seeds.

If it weren't for the fact that he found a gourd with almost no seeds in it and identified this kind of seed by comparing the ratio, Xu Yi might have directly built a shelf for this melon and planted it as a cucumber!

There are naturally melons planted on the shelves, and the melon sellers also say conclusively that they are definitely not melons but hanging melons, and the price is much more expensive than ordinary melons.

Of course, Xu Yi doesn't believe this statement, as a student of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Xu Yi knows that the real hanging melon is actually a melon.

Melon is a traditional Chinese medicine, "Compendium of Materia Medica" divides it into grass, saying that melon has the effect of "moistening lung dryness, reducing fire, treating cough, cleansing phlegm, quenching thirst, facilitating stool, eliminating carbuncle swelling and sores";

Like melons and cucumbers, melons are also of the Cucurbitaceae family, but this thing is only a little related to the melons that are hung up and planted.

If you want to find a frame of reference to illustrate, the vines of the melon grow a little like a watermelon, and the fruit looks like a small pumpkin with the skin of a horned melon. The seeds are like small gourd seeds with the skin of watermelon seeds, except for the flowers. There is no place that looks like this "hanging melon".

As for the hanging melon seeds sold in the roasted food shop, they are actually artificially cultivated and bred melons with seeds that are more suitable for consumption.

Or thousands of years later. The results of artificial breeding will also make it possible that the traits of melon seeds and artificially planted hanging melon seeds are completely different.

Just as cherry tomatoes are quite different from tomatoes that are commonly used as vegetables on the market, cherry tomatoes are not genetically modified tomatoes that have become smaller.

The original tomato seed is actually like cherry tomatoes, very small, and it has been artificially bred for hundreds of years in the direction of larger and more productive fruits. Cherry tomatoes are closer to the native tomato species than tomatoes on the market today.

It is not surprising that the direction of artificial selection of melons is also in the direction of high yields, or that one day in the future, the fruit of this melon will grow to the size of a pumpkin.

If the melon that is planted by hanging is a hanging melon, then Xu Yi can only pray that the melon seller is not from the Northeast.

One of the three monsters in the Northeast is called "raising a child to hang up", should the child raised with a rocking car be called "hanging a child"?

The melons that are planted by hanging are actually cultivated in protected areas. A cultivation method adopted to increase the yield per unit area is not a new variety of melons.

If you like, even watermelons and pumpkins can be hung up and planted. Of course, the weight of these two kinds of melons is too heavy, in order to prevent the fruit from pulling off the vines, it is necessary to put a wire mesh on the outside of the fruit and fix it on the shelf.

All melons are plants of the Cucurbitaceae family. Of course, if you have to say that papaya is from the Rosaceae family and not from the Cucurbitaceae family, then you can't help it, the fool is still a special species of the Dibi family!

Plants in the Cucurbitaceae family have tendrils that can climb and attach, and if the tendrils cling to a nearby higher object, the plant's upward growth will cause the plant to climb upwards along the object.

This is why you can still grow melons on a shelf.

As for the variety of this melon. It's not much different from the traditional way of planting on flat ground.

Of course, three-dimensional cultivation of melons has more than the advantage of saving land.

Melons and watermelons planted on the ground will leave a trace of white flowers on the skin due to the lack of sunlight on the side of the ground. And the taste of this piece will be much inferior to other parts of this melon.

Hanging melons and watermelons can perfectly solve the problem of uneven light, and hanging growth also makes the shape of the melon more round and shiny, and there will be better sunshine and ventilation conditions. This allows them to convert more sugars and taste sweeter and tastier.

But. This simple change in planting methods cannot be a reason for you to refer to the deer as a horse, pointing to the melon and calling it a hanging melon. What a pie called the lotus honey of the lotus of snow fat!

Originally, Xu Yi thought about planting these two seeds, and then watering them until the plants grew up, so that he could naturally distinguish whether this was a cucumber or a melon.

However, when I saw that there were a few seeds stuck to the gourd that had not been washed, I changed my mind, and felt that it was not necessary, and I was almost sure what this seed was.

Xu Yi gently scraped with his fingernails, peeled off some more melon pulps, and put the melon seeds to his nose and smelled them.

Smelling that the place where the melon pulp peeled off exuded a little sour, Xu Yi felt that this kind of seed was a cucumber seed nine times out of ten.

Generally, fruits are sour when they are not ripe, and when they are ripe, they will become sweeter, and the higher the ripeness, the sweeter they will be.

Cucumbers, on the other hand, are the opposite, with young cucumbers with a hint of sweetness and ripe cucumber seeds becoming incredibly sour.

As for the melon, when it is tender, it is as light and tasteless as white water, and the older it is, the sweeter it is, so it smells sour, and naturally it can only be a cucumber seed.

Xu Yi took one of each of the two seeds and put it in his mouth to bite it open, and then broke the hard shell on the outside of the seed, comparing the fragments of the two hard shells.

The seed coat of the seed I first found was much thicker than that of the highly suspicious cucumber seed, and most of this seed was fuller than that one.

Xu Yi can be sure that the first thing he found was melon seeds, and the last thing he found was cucumber seeds.

The seeds of muskmelons and watermelons are found and there is naturally no need to put them back, the weather is getting hotter day by day, and the day when melons and watermelons will be on the market in large quantities is not far off.

The melons grown in this space are naturally free of hormones, fertilizers and pesticides. It's definitely more reassuring to eat.

Eat a watermelon if you have something to eat, and eat a melon if you have nothing to do. Is there anything more refreshing than that?

And these melons and fruits are far more nutritious than those factory-made drinks and ice cream. It's also healthier.

Besides, even if it's not summer, it's not a big deal to eat watermelon and melon.

Protected area cultivation breaks the restrictions of seasons and geography on a large extent, and these things are sold all year round in the larger fruit shops in the provincial capitals, and it is easy to hide the past.

After finding these two things, Xu Yi checked the remaining seeds again, and in the end, he only left pumpkins and eggplants that he didn't have to worry about too much, and prepared to plant them with those seeds.

Xu Yi is going to keep these things for himself to eat, and wait until these vegetables come down. Naturally, it is time for your own food basket to become richer.

But things like beans and tomatoes, Xu Yi doesn't have to think about it.

These vegetables are either climbing plants, or the stems are too soft to bear their weight and cannot be grown without a shelf.

If you let them spread out on the ground or fall to the ground, not to mention the area of land, it will be too laborious to pick.

As for those sesame seeds, peanuts and the like, Xu Yi couldn't even mention his interest in planting.

Although these oil crops are suitable for oil extraction, and oil is also something that dumpling restaurants will use in large quantities, Xu Yi did not have the equipment to extract oil. Second, without that technology, there is no need to think about this thought.

These things can only be used as ordinary ingredients in the end, and I won't have a dumpling with sesame seeds and peanut filling, right?

Although the Lantern Festival with this filling is common, the dumplings with sesame and peanut fillings are a little too strange.

If there is nothing else to help you with. This kind of unconventional cooking technique can be completely classified as dark cuisine.

Of course, it is not much of a problem for these things to be fried and ground and used to wrap the Qingtuan.

However, I haven't made this dumpling yet, and I haven't even counted the things that opened in the early stage. To engage in those things again is inevitably a bit too unprofessional.

Xu Yi checked the seeds left again. Then put the rest of the seeds in the tent, and they can be planted again when they are empty.

Find the hatchet. Xu Yi went directly to the bamboo forest and prepared to cut down all the bamboo.

Sooner or later, this bamboo will have to be cut, and the sooner it is cut, it can be used sooner.

After planting for such a long time, all kinds of bamboos have been bred well, and the original clumps of bamboos have been connected into a large area, and there is even a feeling of impermeability in the bamboo forest.

After Xu Yi is ready to plant the tea trees again, he will transplant all these bamboos, and since the coffee can bear fruit, this place is still used to grow coffee alone.

Not only these bamboos, but even those cocoa trees, Xu Yi Xu Yi is also ready to try pollination, if the fruit is ripe, he will cut them all down and replant them in another place.

This cocoa flower is smelly, and if it is left on the side of the coffee, I am afraid that it will also have a bad effect on the taste of the coffee.

In the middle of the bamboo forest, there are basically grown bamboos, and only on the sides there are some young bamboos that have just grown.

These big bamboos are too troublesome to transplant, and I just need bamboo poles, even those nan bamboos, if I prepare to make zuò covered tea, it is just right for splitting and building greenhouses.

Therefore, except for bamboo, which is only suitable for making small things such as chopsticks and pen barrels, and has little use value, Xu Yi simply cut down all the bamboos that could be cut in a big way, and only kept those young bamboos that were not much big for transplanting.

Bamboo will decompose when cut down, so the larger Nanzhu and Lei bamboo, Xu Yi can only cut them one at a time.

After cutting the bamboo, Xu Yi hurriedly repaired the bamboo and carried it to the pile of wood to erect it, saving it from being decomposed.

Even if it is those smaller bamboos such as purple bamboo and rigid bamboo, Xu Yi will have to deal with them at most three or five at a time.

After working for a long time, Xu Yi cleaned up this large bamboo forest, and the whole bamboo forest became sparse again, and there were two or three hundred bamboo poles of different thicknesses on top of the wood pile. (To be continued......)
