Yesterday I promised to take half a day to come out of the code word, but it still didn't happen, plus the previous supplement is also.
After the Chung Yeung Festival, everyone began to busy with the autumn harvest, hoping to harvest the rice as soon as possible and then plant vegetables. Here, the plants grow normally in winter, and the rice may not be able to grow into three crops, but there is absolutely no limit to the vegetables.
"The children in the countryside are so happy! There is also a farm holiday. Those people in the city couldn't help but say when they saw that the primary school here had a week of agricultural holidays. I feel that the system in the countryside is more humane than in the city, and it is very good to start from the actual situation in the countryside.
"Huh! Maybe a lot of kids don't like this holiday! Chu Jiaqiang said with a smile.
In rural areas, there is no holiday for primary school, and it is not wrong for children to like holidays, but among so many holidays, this holiday should be the least disliked. Because not only do you have a lot of homework, but you also have to help the family with farm work.
Nowadays, the efficiency of Chujiazhai is much higher, and it may have been a week's farm work in the past, but this time it was all done in about three or four days. At this time, the women were drying the grain at home, and the men went out to plow the fields and prepare the land, etc.
However, at this time, Chu Jiacheng made another big move, which was quite surprising. His family is worried, after this kid comes back, he always does something not very serious.
Some time ago, it was okay to make watermelons, but I also made a lot of money. But this time, this guy actually wants to plant melon seeds, which is what is called sunflowers outside. It's not all. I also want to temporarily change the field with others, so that I can make a more place, and plant it in a unified way, so that planting and sightseeing are integrated. The people in the village thought to themselves: This guy is too ambitious, right?
Chujiacheng's family was indeed very depressed, when they planted watermelons, they were worried for a few months, but fortunately there was no accident and they made a fortune smoothly. When it comes to planting more unfamiliar sunflower seeds, they are helpless. Secretly complaining about his own kid: Can't you do something normal?
"Huh! That guy might be annoyed, right? That's how the kid did it. However, it is not easy to organize a relatively large piece of place. The old village chief said with a smile.
In the past, when the fields were divided, the fields were divided into several areas according to their fertility, and then each area was divided into many pieces according to the number of heads. It is more fair for each person to choose a piece of land from a field with different levels of fat and thinness. But it is precisely because of this that the fields of each family are very scattered, and almost no one is concentrated.
Chu Jiaqiang was also secretly speechless, thinking that kid did have brains. That kid made this play, just like the daylily on the beach behind him. In addition to the practical economic benefits, there is also an ornamental effect. That's a really good thing to do. In addition, it seems that growing sunflowers is better than growing daylilies yourself.
"That kid is usually quite messy, but he has a very flexible mind. Personally, I agree with him doing this, and I've heard that sunflowers are quite easy to grow. I'm not afraid to fold the book. Chu Jiaqiang said.
"There's nothing wrong with young people being bold, being too conservative won't get development. But is that thing okay to grow now? The old village chief couldn't help asking.
Before Chu Jiaqiang could answer, Xu Hao spoke first: "Sunflowers are planted at any time. It can be done all year round, of course, it is better to have summer and winter. Winter is coming soon, right? ”
Sunflowers can be used in all seasons. It is mainly in summer and winter. The flowering period can be more than two weeks. In addition to its sun-like appearance, sunflower flowers are bright and generous, suitable for ornamental decorations, and its seeds are more economically valuable, not only can be made into popular sunflower seeds, but also can be squeezed out of high-grade edible sunflower oil with low cholesterol.
Sunflower varieties can be divided into "general ornamental" varieties or "edible" varieties, and the general ornamental varieties are characterized by short plants, usually no more than half a meter, so they are suitable for planting in potted plants; Edible varieties are taller and grow to more than 2 meters in the soil of general open-air nurseries. Sunflowers grow quite quickly, usually planting about two months before flowering, its flower types are single-petaled, double-petaled or single-flowered, multi-flowered, flowering period is quite long up to more than two weeks.
"Alas! I'm afraid that thing is not easy to serve! I haven't planted it, so I'm always a little worried. The old village chief expressed the worries of the Chu family.
Chu Jiaqiang smiled slightly: "Sunflowers are easy to take care of!" Don't worry about it, the sun is abundant and the fertilizer is abundant, and you will definitely not be disappointed. ”
Sunflowers love full sunlight and have strong phototropism in their seedlings, leaves, and flower discs. Sufficient sunshine and strong seedlings can prevent growth; Sufficient sunshine in the middle stage of growth can promote the vigorous growth of stems and leaves, normal flowering and pollination, and improve the seed setting rate. In the later stage of growth, the sunshine is sufficient, and the seeds are full and full.
As for the soil requirements, they are not very strict. It can grow on all kinds of soils, from fertile soils to dryland, barren and saline-alkali lands. It has strong salt and alkali resistance. Of course, plants are better off growing naturally with nutrients, there is no doubt about that.
The old village chief deliberately came over to talk to Chu Jiaqiang, that is, to ask him what he meant on behalf of Chu Jiacheng's family. If Chu Jiaqiang said something that was not very good, or that he was quite risky, then he would definitely not tolerate that kid coming nonsense.
"That's good, I'm afraid it won't be managed." The old village chief frowned.
Since these young people have ideas, of course he strongly supports them, just like Chu Jiaqiang stayed in the village last year to generate income. As long as he comes forward to talk to other villagers and discuss, it is not impossible to exchange land for the time being.
To the surprise of the old village chief and others, the idea of planting sunflower seeds on a large scale in Chujiacheng was supported by many people.
Almost all tourists agreed, in that case, Chujiazhai has another bright spot, and they will have a good place to take pictures in the future. Moreover, you may also be able to eat the original sunflower seeds at that time.
Because the children in the village had never seen real sunflowers, they naturally raised their hands in agreement. They have seen it in books and on TV, and they all say that it is a magical plant that can rotate with the sun. This is undoubtedly a very new thing for them.
However, although Chu Jiacheng has a lot of ideas, he is not a practical person. He came up with these bizarre ideas by himself, but he didn't know much about the difficulties, and he always came up with these problems and threw them at his family to annoy him, which made people very speechless.
After two days of negotiation, Chu Jiacheng finally gathered a piece of land of more than ten acres as he wished, and once again activated the bulldozer he had purchased, and began to loosen the soil, hoping to plant sunflowers as soon as possible. From sowing to harvesting, it is estimated that it will take about 100 days, so it may be harvested before the Chinese New Year.
