The New Year is a rare rest time for farmers, during which there is no need to worry about weeds in the fields, and the crops have not yet fallen to the ground, so the Spring Festival time set by the ancestors is just the time for farmers to rest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

From the first day of the new year to the fifteenth day of the new year, according to the rules of the farmhouse, it is necessary to take turns, which means that several families who get along well and live together will take turns to be the masters of the hospital.

Eat from one family to another, one family eats for a day, takes turns, and when the meal is finished, then the New Year is over.

In the past few days, Gao Zhong has unconsciously gained weight, obviously this big fish and meat are very nourishing.

On the fifteenth, the Lantern Festival.

Gao Qiaoer stayed in the soup balls at night, and the family sat down to eat the rice balls, and this New Year was over.

While eating the rice balls, Gao Zhong walked to the place where the potatoes were stacked, and after two months of placing the potatoes, the potatoes were not bad, so Gao Zhong picked one up and looked at it.

Potatoes will not spoil easily as long as they are connected to the earth, but Gao Zhong's potatoes at this moment are obviously much more shriveled, and the skin has wrinkles.

Looking at the folds, Gao Zhong smiled, which was a sign before the potatoes sprouted.

"Auntie, potatoes can be planted tomorrow!"

Gao Zhong ran to Gao Qiao'er's side again with the bowl and said to Gao Qiao'er.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Gao Qiao'er took Gao Zhong, Gao Shangwu and Gao Wei to the field with potatoes on their backs.

Gao Zhong commanded Gao Qiao'er and Gao Wei to dig the ground, and Gao Shangwu was tasked with gathering the dead branches around him and burning them to ashes.

And Gao Zhong went to the chicken pen and swept a layer of chicken and duck feces and brought it over, ready to make base fertilizer with the grass ash.

"Why did this Gao family start farming so early?"

The Gao family's actions immediately attracted the attention of many people, and they looked at Gao Wei and them curiously.

At this time, the winter has not yet dispersed, the seeds are not the time to sow seeds, according to the rules of the farmer, before and after Qingming is the best time to sow seeds, when the rain is sufficient, the soil is soft, the temperature is suitable, and it is best to sow seeds at that time.

Now that the Lantern Festival has just passed, the weather is still cold, how can you be busy turning the ground, isn't that a waste of work?

"Yes, there are still a few days left after Qingming, what is this Gao family busy with?"

For the first time, the peasant family couldn't understand how the peasants went down to the fields before the farming time came, which was contrary to the laws they had summed up for thousands of years.

"What's wrong?"

Yang Sanlao doesn't have to go under the yellow cypress tree these days, so he seems to be very leisurely, and he walked around the village a few times, and saw a group of people gathered together, so he followed curiously.

"Somehow, this Gao family is digging the ground and burning leaves, I don't know what to do, isn't this farming time not yet here?"

- An old farmer said to Yang Sanlao.

"The Gao family?"

Yang Sanlao frowned slightly, and smiled: "Maybe this artichoke can start to be planted......"

Then Yang Sanlao glanced at Gao Zhong, who was accompanying Gao Shangwu to burn the fire, smiled and said to the people next to him: "Okay, Sensei, it's not a big deal, you guys go back first!" ”

Then he walked in front of Gao Zhong.

"Grandpa Yang?"

Seeing Yang Sanlao coming over, Gao Zhong grinned at Yang Sanlao.

"Zhong Wazi, can this potato be planted?"

Yang Sanlao pointed to the potatoes in the back basket and asked Gao Zhong.

"Well, if you can plant it, it will sprout in a few days, and now when you bury it in the soil, he will sprout early, and the potatoes that will grow will be good and bigger!"

Gao Zhong nodded and said to Yang Sanlao.

"Nacheng, I'll take a look too, learn and learn, how do you grow this artichoke."

Yang Sanlao simply stepped aside, found a place to do it, and smoked a dry cigarette to watch how Gao Zhong planted the novelty of artichoke.

Gao Zhong nodded, and then continued to burn the fire with Gao Shangwu, and soon the leaves were burned to ashes, Gao Zhong poured the chicken and duck feces into the leaf ashes, and then stirred it repeatedly, and when it was evenly stirred, it was loaded into the bucket.

Carrying the bucket, Gao Zhong came to the field, and then evenly sprinkled the bottom fertilizer in the bucket into the pit dug by Gao Wei and Hao Qiao'er.

After all the sprinkling was done, Gao Zhong told Gao Qiao'er and Gao Wei to cover the bottom fertilizer with the soil, not too thick, a thin layer would be enough.

Gao Qiaoer and Gao Wei have never seen such a method of farming, what is this mixture of grass ash and chicken and duck manure in the field?

But they don't know much about potatoes, so they can only do what Gao Zhong said. After all, they are also old farmers for more than ten years, and what Gao Zhong ordered them will soon be completed.

Gao Zhong returned to the potato, picked up the knife and began to cut the potato.

Potatoes are a very strange crop, it is said to be a vegetative propagation crop, but some of them still bloom, although the flowers do not bear fruit, which is very strange.

But the way it is cultivated is very simple cutting and planting, very simple.

Holding the potatoes, Gao Zhong cut the fist-sized ones into eight parts, each of which was connected to the skin, and although it was cut into eight parts, the weight of this small potato was still quite large.

Gao Zhong decomposed potatoes like this, but Yang Sanlao frowned on the side, in the traditional farm crops, but there has never been such a strange crop, the edible part is also the planting part, although the taro is also like this, but it can't be cut and planted like potatoes!

Yang Sanlao stared, Gao Wei and Gao Qiao'er also looked at Gao Zhong's approach curiously, and then Gao Zhong smiled and explained: "This artichoke is a very peculiar species, as long as there is a fruit, even if it is destroyed, it can still sprout, as long as it sprouts and grows leaves, then there will definitely be fruit." ”

Although Gao Zhong said it very clearly, Gao Wei and Yang Sanlao didn't understand, after all, it was the first time they had seen such a magical species, and the seeds could be cut and planted.

After cutting the potatoes, Gao Zhong threw them into the dug pit, and then told Gao Wei to bury them in the soil, this can be a little thicker, but not too thick!

This back basket of potatoes, because of the relationship between being cut, so there is still a surplus in this piece of field bell, but there are not many of them, Gao Zhong handed over the potatoes to Yang Sanlao: "Grandpa Yang, you can take the rest back and plant the rest, and these base fertilizers." Wait for it to grow leaves, and you can just drench two more coats of fertilizer! ”

Potatoes are easy to take care of, as long as the bottom fertilizer is enough, then the leaves have grown, and you can already sit down and wait for a good harvest with one or two layers of farm fertilizer.
