0217 seeds
Although this is just the beginning, for Xu Yi, the exam has come to an end.
It will take almost a month to get to the theory exam, and I have already read almost all the books in these two majors.
If there is no abnormality, even if he doesn't read any books, Xu Yi will not be in danger of failing, and if there is another week, it will be enough for him to get a fairly ideal score, so he is not prepared to spend too much time on these books.
The rest is Xu Yi's most important exam this year - the medical practitioner exam, but this exam is still divided into two sections, and July is only a practical skills exam, which is basically no problem for himself, not to mention the theoretical exam in October, which is definitely a rather distant future for Xu Yi.
Of course, Xu Yi is also quite confident in this exam, if it weren't for the fact that these two exams were held at the same time, Xu Yi would have no skills, but I am afraid that he would pass the two licensed physician exams together last year.
The book is not in a hurry to read, but Xu Yi is also not idle, and there is still a lot of work waiting to be done in front of him.
When Xu Yi arrived home, he went directly to the warehouse to take a look.
The water in the bucket of pickled vegetables has turned light yellow, and Xu Yi looks at it almost the same, so he is ready to turn these vegetables down the tank first, so that the fermentation is more uniform and the taste is better.
Xu Yi moved all those buckets to the yard, then went to wash his hands and arms, and then opened a bucket casually, and took out the cylinder stone inside and put it aside.
Xu Yi took out the green vegetables layer by layer from the top, grabbed it slightly, and then stacked it layer by layer into the remaining empty bucket. Soon all the greens in the bucket were fished out.
The volume of the restacked dish has decreased a lot due to dehydration. So the bucket that was originally full of greens went down a lot this time, and Xu Yi opened the plastic bucket that only filled half a bucket of greens. I fished some of the vegetables out of it, and filled the bucket of greens until it was similar to the previous Cheng dรน before I stopped.
Xu Yi picked up the plastic bucket that only contained a small half bucket of pale yellow brine, carefully poured it into the bucket full of vegetables, pressed the cylinder stone on top of the vegetables, and finally tightened the lid again.
It wasn't until all the dishes were turned over that Xu Yi stopped and turned his head to look into the warehouse.
There are not many things in the warehouse, but a few shelves that are almost one person high occupy most of the warehouse, and there are some bamboo plaques with a diameter of about one and a half meters on the shelves, and there are at least thirty or forty of them.
Presumably, the old lady used to pick mulberry and raise silkworms before. But now these things are useless, and I can't afford to throw them away, so I'm piling them up here.
Of course, the old lady can't use these things, which doesn't mean that Xu Yi can't use them.
If nothing else, wait for the dish to be pickled and then cleaned, and then it can no longer be put on the cement floor to dry, otherwise the sand will be mixed into it, and it will be uncomfortable to eat.
If you want to dry vegetables, you naturally have to use a few bamboo plaques. However, the rest of Xu Yi doesn't plan to let go, he needs more of this thing to dry things in this space.
Xu Yi was wondering, if he was empty, would he learn to make a few of these bamboo plaques to use. After all, this thing is definitely Han Xin's point of merrier for himself.
I used those boards to deal with it before, and it was natural to come and go less, but in the future, I will gain more things. Not only does this board not fit down, but it is also unsafe. It's also inconvenient.
Of course, this kind of sericulture shelf is okay if you put things, but it is always a little inappropriate to use it to dry things. I had to make some more low tripods, and I only put one on top of each shelf, which also saved me from putting things on top of the workbench.
Thinking like this, Xu Yi kept receiving the shelves and bamboo plaques into the space, leaving only a bamboo plaque on the corner of the warehouse for drying vegetables.
However, the old lady may not have planted a field for many years, except for those brought to the space, so Xu Yi did not find any other farm tools in the warehouse.
It's just that compared to this little disappointment, what made Xu Yi even more overjoyed was that he found something else better.
After the bamboo plaques were moved, a large wooden box next to Xu Yi that Xu Yi had never opened was particularly conspicuous, Xu Yi didn't know what was inside, so he went over to open it and found that there were a lot of large and small gourds on it, sawing off their mouths.
Seeing that these gourds were stuffed with cloth heads, Xu Yi was Yile, and he had already guessed what was in this box.
But whether there is anything in it, what is it is not clear to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi picked up a gourd and shook it, there was a rustling sound inside, obviously there was goods in it!
Xu Yi opened it and poured out the contents of it, only to find that the gourd contained chili seeds, but Xu Yi didn't know whether this was a big chili pepper or a small chili pepper.
There are more gourds, and Xu Yi doesn't open the others, so he simply puts all these gourds into the space, and these can be checked before planting them when he enters the space.
Xu Yi is quite satisfied with these seeds, after all, these are the seeds left by the farmers themselves, and these seeds that can be retained may not be as good as those commercial-grade seeds in terms of yield, quality or disease resistance.
However, there is no need to worry too much about these problems if you have space, and more importantly, such vegetable seeds can be left in the space, so that you don't have to buy them again every time like a hybrid seed bought.
Speaking of which, the temperature in this space is always the same, and it must be able to be planted all year round, but there are not many seeds on the market all year round, so if you miss the season, you may have to work hard to buy it yourself.
Under these gourds are some large and small cloth bags, which are obviously also filled with all kinds of seeds, but because of the number or size, they are not suitable for being packed in the gourd, so they are packed in bags.
Obviously, this box of old ladies is specially used to hold all kinds of seeds.
Think about it, if you put it in a living house, this kind of seed is easy to germinate due to heat or moisture, and you also put the seeds in the warehouse back then.
And the color of the pepper seeds I just saw is quite new, so maybe these are all seeds from last year.
However, even the seeds in the early years are not a big problem, the advantage of this gourd is that it is moisture-proof and has a better heat preservation effect, and the seeds are not easy to spoil when placed in it.
The amount of these seeds is full, and it must be enough to plant a large area by yourself, even if the germination rate is really not good, even if you can germinate one percent, this is enough!
Xu Yi also put these bags into the space, so that after the inspection, he could have a few more materials suitable for making dumplings.
Even if you can't use it to make dumplings, at least you can always eat enough dishes.
After cleaning up the dust on the ground, putting it in a bag, and waiting to be thrown away at night, Xu Yi returned to the house, ready to check another job.
Xu Yi went up to the second floor, entered the bedroom against the west, and went to see the two jars of cherry wine.
The time is still short, and it is naturally impossible to make this wine, but seeing that there is no obvious black hair or anything like that on it, Xu Yi is already relieved.
However, some necessary work still needs to be done, Xu Yi entered the space as usual, went to fold a bamboo branch, and then came out, carefully lifted the lid of a wine jar, the flavor inside emanated, and the rich cherry flavor was combined with a little faint alcohol taste, obviously, the fermentation of this wine was normal.
Xu Yi stretched the bamboo branch into the jar and stirred it, so that the flesh floating on it would settle down to the bottom to avoid incomplete fermentation.
The situation of the other jar is also about the same, after stirring as usual, Xu Yi covered the jar again, and after another week or so, he needed to stir again, Xu Yi felt that the fermentation process was obviously faster, or this was related to the fact that his cherries had more sugar or protein content, if it was replaced with honey that basically did not contain protein, this fermentation would definitely not be so fast, and the quality of the wine must not be so good.
Of course, if you really want to make wine with honey, I'm afraid that you have to get some pollen mixed into it to increase the protein content, or the next time you have time, it's not bad to get a little experiment yourself, anyway, there is a lot of honey yourself, waiting for the greens or something to plant this flower will not be less, this is appropriate to take off some pollen, presumably it will not have much impact on the bee colony.
Xu Yi closed the lid of the wine can, and then checked and found that there was no shortage of water in the ventilation hole above, so he turned around and left, ready to enter the space.
Because there are no lime trees, the bees are finally willing to work again, and they can be seen on all kinds of plants that have flowers, and they can be seen on the pine and oak trees.
Of course, the pollination of these two trees does not need to be done by bees, and the female flowers of these two trees have no nectar, so there will be no bees to patronize them.
Seeing this, Xu Yi's heart moved, did these bees start to reproduce again?
Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but think of a problem, that is, bees need to use pollen to feed their young bees.
Other pollen is not a big problem, but not all pollen is suitable for bees.
The composition of pine pollen contains pine triose, which bees cannot digest, which causes the bees to lose their ability to fly and die quickly.
Even adult bees should not eat too much pine pollen, otherwise they will have symptoms similar to those after eating nectar.
When the honey source is insufficient in the warm autumn season, the bees will collect the nectar secreted from the pine needles to brew nectar honey, but the nectar honey contains a large amount of pine triose, and even adult bees will die of bloating because they can't digest too much.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi's heart sank, this bee wouldn't have collected nectar on the tree at the same time......, right?
