Chapter 1990: Can flowers be eaten? (4 more please customize)

Liu Feng took a sip of water from the table, cleared his throat and started thinking about the fourth step.

He thought about it seriously and said,"The fourth stage is growth. After the pumpkin reaches a certain stage, the plant enters the flowering stage. In the early stage, male flowers will dominate."

"Mainly male flowers......"Shirley took notes carefully

"You can pick off the male flowers with their peduncles in the morning when the flowers are about to bloom, which can be eaten. When the female flowers start to grow, you can then start applying organic fertilizer. Liu Feng said seriously.

Shirley was a little stunned. She kept blinking her eyes and asked doubtfully,"Your Majesty, are flowers edible?""

"Of course, you can use it to scramble eggs or stir-fry meat, both taste great."Liu Feng said with a smile.

There are many delicacies made with flowers on the other side of the earth, not only stir-fry dishes, but also desserts, such as flower cakes, flower cakes, etc. are all made of flowers. The taste is still the same. It's very good, and its nutritional value is very high. It can be useful to the body if you eat it more.

For example, it can cause loss of appetite, indigestion, etc. Even eating some flowers can remove the odor in the mouth.

"So that's it."Shirley was a little shocked, with a look of disbelief on her face. She didn't expect that the flowers she had grown for so long could actually be eaten. She couldn't help but start to think about it. She must get some to try the taste.

Not only the horse-eared girl, but also the cat-eared girl and the fox-eared girl were also shocked. It was also the first time they heard that flowers can be eaten.

"Okay, there are a few more things you should pay attention to. When the female flowers bloom, you should reduce or stop harvesting the tender stem tips. If necessary, artificial pollination should be carried out. This must be done before eight o'clock in the morning."

Liu Feng waited until Ma Er Niang finished recording, and continued,"Usually, 3-5 melons per plant can grow normally, 1-2 can be left for large melon varieties, and the number of micro melon varieties can be increased appropriately, depending on the growth of the plant. Certainly"

"I know, I have both varieties grown separately."Shirley nodded heavily.

"Well, those excessive young melons or female flowers should be thinned out, and the stems and vines should be properly topped to avoid insufficient nutrient supply."

Liu Feng picked up the tea cup and continued,"The larger melons can be covered with a net bag and hung in a stable place. The melons close to the ground can be isolated from the soil by using wooden boards to prevent them from being eaten by some insects."

Because many insects feed on fruits and melons, if you put the pumpkins in production on the soil, those insects will not be polite. They will eat the side of the pumpkin that is close to the soil and change it beyond recognition.

"I know, I remember it all."Shirley just stopped writing.

After listening to His Majesty's explanation, although planting pumpkins doesn't feel difficult, it is definitely not an easy task because there are still many things to pay attention to.

"Okay, if you remember everything, then I will start with the fifth and final step. Liu Feng said seriously

"yes."Shirley didn't dare to be vague and immediately picked up a notepad and pen to record the last step.

"When the pumpkin grows to a later stage, it will use the adventitious roots grown from the vine nodes. At this time, it is necessary to bury the stems. Liu

Feng took a sip of water and continued,"In this way, the output can be increased by about 20 to 10 percent.""

Others may not understand this yield increase rate, but Shirley didn't know it too well.

She covered her mouth in surprise and said,"This last step can actually increase pumpkin yield!"

"Of course, the time to bury the stems is after two to three batches of fruiting, when some sallow leaves appear on the roots."

Liu Feng put down the tea cup and continued,"Generally, bury the 4-6 nodes closest to the roots. It is best to bury the stems in fertile soil with a small amount of organic fertilizer and moist soil. Shirley took notes carefully, raised her head and asked,"Your Majesty, how deep should I bury it?""

"It should be about 15-25 centimeters, and it should not be buried too deep or too shallow, as these will affect the pumpkin yield. Liu Feng explained

"I understand. I didn’t expect that there is so much knowledge involved in growing pumpkins."Shirley can be said to have benefited a lot today.

"It is your first time to grow pumpkins. If you still don’t understand anything, feel free to come and ask me first. Don’t be afraid."Liu Feng said seriously.

Because there are many new crops this year, planting most crops is more troublesome and fragile, so you still have to pay close attention to it, otherwise it will be bad if all the efforts are wasted in the end.

·········Asking for flowers 0··，

"Yes, Your Majesty, if I don’t understand something then, I will definitely ask you."Shirley nodded heavily.

"Next, you want to ask about the method of growing peas and winter melons. I will give you a book, which is also written in great detail. You can take it back and read it first. If you don’t understand, ask me again. Liu Feng said

"Really? Does Your Majesty have any books on this subject?"Shirley asked in surprise.

"Of course I have. I will give you a copy of all the books on the crops you grow. Liu Feng said grandly.

It took him a long time to translate all those books into this language.

Although the Han Dynasty has begun to promote Chinese characters, everyone is just beginning to learn them.

There is no way to become a big fat man with one bite, so many times you need to memorize books with texts from this era............0,,

Because many people in this era have not yet started to come into contact with Chinese characters, but they are all talents. It would be a waste of time to teach them one-on-one.

If there are books with texts of this era available at this time,If we watch, Liu Feng can save a lot of time.

After they gradually adapted to it and learned more Chinese characters, he could directly show them the books he bought from Earth.

"Thank you so much. I don’t know what I would do without you."Shirley said excitedly.

She really admired His Majesty the King more and more in her heart. She felt like he knew everything.

Maybe even the gods in the sky don't know as much as His Majesty the King, right? Shirley has always thought so.

"You're welcome. Is there anything else you don't understand? You can ask me now."Liu Feng doesn't mind the trouble.

It's much better to help others deal with this matter than to read through those trivial documents.

"There is nothing I don’t understand now. If I don’t understand after reading those books, I’ll ask you again." Shirley said with a smile.

The girl couldn't wait to return those books and read them carefully. It doesn't matter if she doesn't eat for a whole day if she can read books on this subject.

"Ha ha ha ha......good. Liu Feng smiled heartily.，
