Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

I first spent half a day moving all the tomatoes and peppers in the basement to the ground. After filling clay pots with soil, I transplanted the fruit and vegetable plants with intact root systems into the clay pots, and then brought them to the house to put them first.

The floor heating in the room continues to burn, and the temperature inside remains at fifteen or six degrees, which is very suitable for plant growth.

Originally there were only a dozen strawberry seedlings, but later they were propagated using stolons. I thought that the root system of the strawberries might not grow very healthy due to the cold weather.

But when they dug out the seedlings propagated by stolons, they unexpectedly found that the root systems had grown very strong, unlike the seedlings propagated by stolons.

Zhao Yeqing held up one of the thickest strawberry seedlings and waved it proudly in front of Mu Xi's eyes: "Look at my skills. Although I didn't take good care of the tomatoes this winter. But look at my strawberries. With this planting technology, it's already To the extent that it can be sold for money.”

Strawberries grown with organic fertilizers are better than those grown with chemical fertilizers. Not only will the seedlings not burn, the plants will grow stronger and the fruits will be sweeter.

These need to be moved to the open ground for planting, and the base fertilizer in the ground must also be well laid.

Speaking of base fertilizer, Zhao Yeqing thought that there was still manure that had not been removed from the breeding basement. After the weather turned cold and snowed, the manure could no longer be piled in the open. Not only would it not be able to decompose, but it would also freeze hard.

When it first started snowing, the two of them cleaned out the manure from the breeding basement and moved it to the above-ground barn.

Later, I found that it still didn't work, so I built a large wooden compost box under the exhaust fan in the breeding basement. The manure cleaned out each time was piled in it. The temperature in the basement is relatively high, so it can continue to mature after being covered with a plastic sheet and sealed.

Of course, when the temperature was minus 60 or 70 degrees Celsius, it couldn't decompose anymore, so the two had no choice but to move the undecomposed manure outside and freeze it.

It won't stink or get bugs.

Now that the temperature is gradually rising, I don’t know whether the defrosted manure can still be used or whether it will grow bugs and mold.

To be on the safe side, the two finally dumped two sacks of quick-frozen manure under the gentle slope.

The amount of manure in the basement is barely enough to spread the first round of base fertilizer after tilling the grain and vegetable fields.

I am afraid that subsequent top dressing will not be able to keep up, unless the amount of food for the livestock is increased and the food is restored to the previous food.

But this means that the feed at home will definitely not be enough. Even if you are willing to spend time mowing grass in the forest after spring, there may not be grass growing in the forest.

After this extreme cold and extreme night, if you want to rely on today's nature, you may not be able to rely on it for a while, so you still have to find a way to solve it yourself.

Mu Xi moved all the strawberries to the corner and was teaching the dogs not to bite them randomly. When he heard that Zhao Yeqing was worried about this, he reminded:

"Have you forgotten that before we built the new toilet, more than half of the fertilizer in the septic tank of the old toilet was used up?"

Zhao Yeqing's mysophobia was of the type that he would never look back after going to the toilet, and he had long forgotten the existence of the septic tank.

After being reminded by Mu Xi, she suddenly understood, and then immediately said: "Then the job of top dressing will be left to you."

"Okay, not only the top dressing, but also the base fertilizer and everything else will be left to me. You don't need to handle it."

Zhao Yeqing didn't find animal excrement disgusting at all, especially the sheep pen, which was effortless to clean. Usually when the two of them cleaned up together, Zhao Yeqing was responsible for the sheep pen, and the cowshed, pig pen, chicken coop, and stables were all left to Mu Xi.

Cleaning the toilet is naturally Mu Xi's job.

Mu Xi had no objection to this arrangement, but every time he came out from cleaning the toilet, even if he washed his hands, Zhao Yeqing would definitely let him take a shower before entering the house.

Mu Xi, who had just finished taking a shower and then remembered to clean the toilet, said helplessly: "I just finished washing, not to mention I was going to clean the toilet, not rolling around in the toilet."

"No, Ge Ying."

I had no choice but to take a shower again and change my clothes before entering the house.

Zhao Yeqing didn't know why she couldn't change her problem. The main reason was that the dry toilets in rural areas were really dirty and smelly. Fortunately, there was Mu Xi. If she were left to live alone in the meadow, she would still have to clean the toilets and clean out the septic matter. Chi, she would rather choose to go out to the woods to solve the problem.

After Zhao Yeqing finished speaking, Mu Xi deliberately scared her: "Then he met a big python with thick arms..."

......

Mu Xi, who was locked out, went to the basement to bring up the rotten manure.

The barn is now full of animals, so the manure brought up cannot be piled inside anymore. It can only continue to be piled in the original compost place, covered with a plastic sheet to keep it warm.

The snow in the yard has been cleared, and there is no need to worry about the snow melting after a while, and the melted snow water will wet the manure.

December 3039, 1

The temperature in the meadow finally stabilized above freezing, and the snow that had covered the entire meadow for a whole year began to melt.

When the snow melts, the temperature will feel colder than usual. The snow absorbs heat to melt. After melting, the humidity increases. There is bright sunshine above the head, but the air is icy and cold.

The sun seems to be trying to compensate for such a long night. Since dawn, it has been conscientiously hanging overhead every day.

If it is cloudy when the snow melts, the melted snow will freeze at night.

However, during the day recently, the sun shines on the meadow from morning to night. The temperature of the entire ground rises, and the snow up to the knees melts in just five days.

The earthquake they were worried about did not happen this year, but after the snow melted, they heard a loud noise, which seemed to be the collapse of a nearby mountain.

The sound rumbled throughout the valley, making it difficult to tell the direction.

After the beginning of spring, all the energy of the two of them will be put on the one-third of an acre of land at home, and they will not go to the woods for a short time. When they finish their work at home and have time to go to the woods, The soft soil must have been trampled by animals or compacted by time.

After the snow melts, the grain fields and vegetable fields are moist and soft. Farming at this time will get twice the result with half the effort.

The previous bull and the calf born the year before have grown up, and both cows can be dragged to the fields for farming work. The cow after giving birth is still in the milk-producing period, so let it rest at home first.

For two oxen to work together, they also need a second plow.

There is no such thing in tourist areas. Planting is prohibited in tourist areas. Most of them are herdsmen who dare to open a small vegetable plot quietly and grow some daily vegetables. If they want to get a second plow, they still have to Go to the village at the foot of the mountain.
