Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.
Chapter 410: Trap to catch the 'raccoon'
After dinner, while waiting for the animals, I had to organize my notes and record them in detail on the computer. I also recorded a summary and a small amount of data in a paper notebook to avoid loss.
I didn’t realize it before, but over the past few years, I have discovered more and more that farming is really a science. Even when I take out my own notes, I can read them frequently and draw inferences from the data.
For example, peppers and eggplants are vegetables that both belong to the Solanaceae family.
Both crops like temperature but are not cold-tolerant, and they like fertilizer, especially nitrogen, especially eggplant. The two crops are planted next to each other. If there is a temperature problem in the data recording of the eggplant germination period, then the pepper next door will not. You also need to pay attention.
If the peppers are too spicy during the fruiting period and the lighting is normal, it means that there is insufficient water in the ground during that period. This will also affect eggplants that like water and are afraid of waterlogging, so they need to replenish water in time.
The greenhouse in the courtyard is not very big. Logically speaking, the two solanaceous crops should be farther apart. However, due to the area problem, they still have to be close to each other. Planting two rows of garlic or ginger in the middle to create a separation can reduce the risk of similar crops. Outbreaks of pests and diseases such as bollworm.
In the past, the old man always said that from now on he would only live by guarding that one-third of an acre. But when he started living, he realized that this one-third of an acre is really not that small, and there is knowledge everywhere.
While Mu Xi was checking his notes, he would occasionally talk about the crop conditions he had observed in his daily life. The two of them summarized and recorded the data. Zhao Yeqing accidentally glanced to the side and happened to see the animal sniffing at the edge of the trap with its nose raised. .
"Look! It's coming, it's coming!"
The trap was a pit trap with various fruits and vegetables at the bottom of the pit. Worried that it was not tempting enough, the two of them also put a small piece of meat underneath. If it was really an omnivore like a raccoon or a badger, meat would be very harmful to them. Attraction is the greatest.
There is also a wooden board placed at the bottom of the pit where the bait is placed. As long as something steps on it, the rope connecting the wooden board will be pulled, and another wooden board next to the trap will be pulled to cover the trap.
The two had done several experiments with their family dogs before to ensure the success rate of the trap.
The camera next to the trap was closer, and this time he could see it clearly. Zhao Yeqing looked at the animal that looked more and more like a raccoon, "Is this a raccoon?"
Mu Xi also felt like it, but there was no zoo nearby. There were no wild raccoons in their entire country, and there were no raccoons in other countries near the border. It was too strange that this suddenly appeared.
After the animal came close to the trap, perhaps because it had succeeded once before, it jumped down without hesitation when it saw the food inside. There was a snapping sound from the laptop, which was the wooden board covering the trap. Living.
When Mu Xi saw the animal and was about to jump down, he put on his shoes and went downstairs. When he heard Zhao Yeqing shout: "Mu Xi!"
After getting the accurate information, I ran towards the trap. The animal was quite strong. After being frightened, it immediately pushed the lid open, but it couldn't be that simple. Although it was just a wooden lid, the depth of the trap was not particularly shallow. Animals can only climb out of the mud cave wall if they want to.
And all four limbs and claws are used to climb the wall, so how can there be any free hand to push away the board?
When Mu Xi ran to the edge of the trap, the wooden board covering it moved when the animal's head pushed it, but there was only a small crack, and the drill could not get out.
This time I want to see what you are.
