With the blessing of money, the speed of building the greenhouse is really fast!
Several people in the village helped with the work, and several people helped plow the ground and prepare fertilizer, and everyone was busy.
But for people who build greenhouses, speed is a matter of course.
After all, people’s greenhouses started to be built in September, and even earlier in July and August. It's good for the old Song family. They waited until the temperature cooled down before coming... If he doesn't rush the work, who will rush the work?
Professor Song was more anxious than building a greenhouse.
During this period, we are looking for seedlings everywhere, from fruits to vegetables, and we have to carefully select varieties according to the conditions. In addition, there are reports within the industry this autumn that there are many fake seed companies that are harming farmers...
He couldn't be more cautious!
After all, fake seeds cannot be seen right after they are planted, and you won’t notice them until harvest time. By then, the weather has been delayed, and the farmer's year's hard work has been wasted.
This is what they are most afraid of when they are engaged in agriculture!
As for the opportunity given to Song Tan this time, there has never been an example of small farms crowding in in the past, so of course we must be more cautious.
Unfortunately, it's still a little late. For example, for Song Tanti's strawberries, normal strawberry growers start preparing for greenhouse sowing and planting in August and September...
Well now, it’s November!
There is no hope for sowing seeds - novices have no hope for sowing seeds. Fortunately, he knows many bases, and it is no problem to evenly distribute some nutrients in the pot.
No, I carefully selected two distinctive strawberries and asked my former students to help me pack them and send them out, and I finally settled down.
Once the strawberry seedlings are sent and successfully planted, they will probably start to grow stolons, which will make up for the time gap to some extent.
He urged her three times a day, which made Song Tan anxious. He couldn't wait for Brother Zhang to deliver the seedlings, so he drove over to pick them up as soon as they arrived.
Professor Song is still telling Song Tan:
"I sent you two kinds of seedlings. The origins of the varieties are both island countries - but you don't have any ideas. In fact, there is still a big gap between us in terms of independent varieties."
"Furthermore, our country has a vast territory and rich resources. Oranges grow in Huainan and Huaibei. Regional differences must also be paid attention to. Some local varieties with good reputations in the market are not suitable."
He was sending a voice message, and Song Tan listened silently, memorizing each one in his mind - Professor Song actually didn't have to give so many instructions, so how could he tell him what to do? After all, who is the professional and who listens to whom? She never goes against the professionals in this regard.
Not stupid!
The voice messages are played one by one——
"The bigger seedling in that box is a white strawberry with white pulp and red seeds. It is very beautiful. When it is ripe, a slight pink will appear in the white. It is called Saga Snow Rabbit. It can also be called Angel No. 7, Shang Xue. some type of."
"I chose this one for you. Firstly, its fruits are relatively large, with an average weight of more than 35g. Secondly, its winter fruits are relatively hard, making them easy to transport and store."
Song Tan understands this.
Strawberries are very valuable. You cannot store them after you pick them. They will become soft and rotten if they are touched... If it were not for this characteristic, she would have started to plant strawberries long ago.
However, the most important thing about fruit is that it tastes good, right?
For example, the Saga Snow Rabbit arranged by Professor Song described it as very fragrant, sweet and unique, even with a hint of peach and apple...
Song Tan: ...Just, can’t strawberry just taste like strawberry?
However, this is not certain. The taste of fruit has a lot to do with the growing environment. Anyway, it just needs to be delicious, durable and able to be transported.
After all, she has some abilities now, which can be used in transportation and preservation, but she always feels that she is at a huge loss.
"The other half is Zhenhong Meiling. The fruit of this one is not that big, but the sugar content is very high, reaching more than 14. It also has a distinctive hardness and color of black and red. Both are relatively expensive strawberries."
"Tantan, I think if you plant something like this, it will be more attractive in the early stage."
He said it in a vague way, but what he actually meant was that Song Tan had a good taste—probably the variety he planted was good and relatively good.
If it is less, it can attract more attention from the judges and avoid being underestimated at the beginning.
The reason why I say it was the beginning... Because Song Tan thought that if no one noticed, she picked a strawberry at the venue and smashed it. When the juice was dripping and the aroma was so fragrant, she couldn't believe that no one would come to see it...
Of course, the above plot of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger only exists in her imagination, because she still doesn’t know how to make the selection.
I'm thinking about this while driving:
Before I leave, I will start to cover the roof of the greenhouse and lay down the insulation layer, or wait until I get the seedlings to go back and wait for a while, and the ground should be leveled.
When the time comes, cover it with silver-black mulch to prevent insects and promote growth, and then plant seedlings.
If strawberry seedlings are planted in nutrient pots on two plots of land, only one thousand can be planted, and the number of strawberries that can reach the sky will not exceed one thousand two...
Eat it at home and then send it to the election, that’s enough!
Oops, Qiao Qiao is thinking about the strawberries, and she doesn’t know how to be happy now! When she took the box back, it was so high that Qiao Qiao could plant two of them with her own hands!
I thought about things along the way, and they were all wonderful.
But when they arrived in the town, Song Tan stared at the two tall and strong boxes, feeling numb at this moment.
Professor Song didn’t say the box was so big!
But think about it, Professor Song has arranged to prepare 600 seedlings of each variety to prevent loss, a total of 1,200 seedlings, and it is not a single tray of seedlings, so they should be divided into two large boxes.
No wonder Brother Zhang called to ask if it was urgent. If not, he would deliver it slowly tomorrow... He couldn't fit this thing into his van!
Song Tan looked around the box, opened it and inspected it, and found that there were five layers in the box. They had to be separated to prevent collisions and squeezes. They were packed one by one with special flower partition boxes, which was really tight.
Just looking at the appearance, I thought it came with two large double-door refrigerators.
To be honest, the seedling fees and shipping costs for this variety of seedlings are enough to prohibit ordinary farmers.
Now that the two boxes were next to each other, Song Tan was silent for a moment and had to lift them into the pickup truck one by one——
The pickup is great! Really useful! Next time I buy a car, buy a pickup truck!
Next, she will come to pick up pepper seedlings, Huning edamame seedlings, cucumbers and tomatoes...
hiss!
It’s going to be a busy few days again!
…
In the distant Jiangcheng, when I called Zhang Yanping every day and heard that his family was working on a greenhouse, Boss Chang burst into tears!
"I knew it!" He murmured:
"Hard work pays off. As long as you give enough money, the greenhouse will be built sooner or later..."
Boss Chang happily started studying the New Year’s Eve dinner and gift boxes with beautiful dreams!
After all, there are greenhouses here. Aren’t there all kinds of fruits and vegetables for the Chinese New Year? His big gift box needs to be made more sincerely and decently, right?
