Alpine Orchard - Chapter 175

[Chapter 175]

‘s Eve Ye Mo’s parents came very early, they arrived after nine o’clock.

“In-laws.” Dad laughed, carrying a carton of milk and a bucket of Jiabao fruit.

The Jiabao fruit in Gaoshanping has always been ripe, but no one has picked it. Dad Ye went to pick the fruit yesterday afternoon…

“A lot of Jiabao fruits are ripening?” Seeing that Dad Ye brought so many Jiabao fruits, Lin Shan said with a smile.

“All, that’s all I picked.”

After a while, Chen Chen and his family also came over, and Ye Ran sat in Chen Chen’s passenger seat.

Behind him is Uncle Ye Mo, Tang Xun and his family.

After ten o’clock, Uncle Xiao Mian and the others also came over, a family of five, four…

By noon, the house was very lively.

Today is the sixth day.

Xiao Mian’s relatives, as well as her sister-in-law’s family and the eldest lady’s family.

For Ye Mo’s relatives, the eldest uncle has already finished hosting receptions, and the younger uncle’s family has also hosted receptions…Only

Ye Mo’s family and second uncle’s family have not yet hosted receptions.

“Dad, how many watermelons have you planted at home?” Ye Mo asked. The past few days have been at Uncle Xiao Mian’s side, and he hasn’t gone back.

Papa Ye said: “Your second uncle, third uncle, and Tang Shu will come to help whenever they are free these days. Don’t worry, it’s going with the time.”

Follow the time, that is, plant the seedlings in the order of raising seedlings. In this case, there are not many melon seedlings left, and they can be planted around the tenth.

There are many things at home.

After lunch, Ye Mo said goodbye and went back.

After being out for several days, Ye Mo is really worried, especially the watermelon in the shed, he has to go back to water the spirit spring.

Back at Gaoshanping, Ye Mo went straight to the greenhouse.

The watermelon in the greenhouse has already set fruit, which is as big as a duck egg.

The temperature is now high. During the day, it is 30 degrees Celsius in the greenhouse.

Ye Mo checked the soil moisture, and there was no need to water the greenhouse for the time being. But Ye Mo brought out the spirit spring, and each watermelon gave a liter of spirit spring…

Last year’s big watermelon was also watered after the fruit set. Then, during the expansion period of the watermelon, water the Lingquan several times.

…

Ye Mo’s house hosts receptions on the seventh day, second uncle’s house on the eighth day, third uncle’s house on the ninth day… and Tang Xun’s house on the tenth day.

After Tang Xun’s family finished the reception, Ye Mo’s watermelons were all planted.

“This year is finally over.” After returning home, Ye Mo exhaled, “I won’t plant watermelons again next year.”

Xiao Mian’s father smiled: “You can follow the work on your side later. Right?”

“Yes.” Ye Mo said with a smile, “I can’t finish my work, and I can still call my second uncle and third uncle to help.”

“The contractor has resumed work, and Xiao Mian’s mother and I have to do it too .” I’m going back.” Lin Shan said.

“Hey.”

Xiaomian’s mother looked at Xiaomian: “Do well here. Don’t let us leave, you will get lazy again.”

“I am very diligent.” Lin Xiaomian said: “Don’t work too hard when you go back. ”

“Speaking of hard work…I feel that building walls is easier than working in the fields.” Lin Shan smiled: “Let’s go.”

Watching Xiao Mian’s parents leave, Ye Mo stretched vigorously, Picking up Lin Xiaomian… Smiling and going back upstairs: “I can finally relax.”

This year is over, and I am very tired.

“As soon as my parents left, you wanted to bully me.” Back in the room, Lin Xiaomian was full of coquettish anger.

“When parents are here, I won’t bully you.” Ye Mo scratched the tip of Lin Xiaomian’s nose and kissed her.

After warming, Ye Mo hugged Lin Xiaomian and asked, “How much money is left in the account?”

“100,000 yuan.”

“Spending money is like flowing water.” Ye Mo sighed.

“I didn’t spend the money…”

“I didn’t say you spent money.” Ye Mo hugged Lin Xiaomian’s head, and kissed her lightly on her red lips: “I mean, it costs money to manage such a large piece of watermelon.” It ‘s like running water.”

Lin Xiaomian pouted her mouth: “I thought you said I spent money fiercely.”

“I’m such an unreasonable person?” Ye Mo said, “100,000 yuan…”

“Isn’t it ? Still want to buy fertilizer?”

Ye Mo gave an ‘hmm’.

“How much fertilizer do I need to buy?”

“20 tons of cake fertilizer, 2 tons of urea, and 1 ton of potash fertilizer.” Ye Mo said, “The organic fertilizer at home is enough.”

“How much?”

“Cake fertilizer, 2600 yuan per ton, 20 tons , 52,000 yuan…”

“There are so many fertilizers in the warehouse, is it not enough?”

“Originally, there were less than 60,000 fertilizers planned, but now there are nearly 80,000 plants.” Ye Mo said.

Lin Xiaomian nodded and said, “After buying this batch of fertilizer, you won’t be buying any more fertilizer in the future, right?”

“Probably not.” Ye Mo turned around, took the cigarette on the bedside table, and lit one.

“I’ve also read a lot of information on how to manage watermelons.” Lin Xiaomian said: “Small melons, one vine and one melon, don’t use one vine and two melons. One vine and two melons are too harmful to the vines. If the melons and vines are injured, you can’t make two crops.” Melons…”

Now most of the small watermelons can produce two batches, or even three batches.

Ye Mo also read the introduction on this aspect, and said: “Follow what I said, I have more experience in management habits than you. When the second crop of melons, it depends on the situation. If the condition of the main vine is not good, just cut it off. The price of the first melon is good…the second crop of melons will be in late May at the earliest. Besides, I don’t know if the second crop of melons can be produced.”

Last year’s big watermelon, after the watermelon was picked, Ye Mo dug it up Melon vines, did not try to breed two crops of melons. But the melon vines were in good condition at that time, and the dug out melon vines were thrown on the ground, and flowers bloomed behind them…and they bore fruit. But without roots, those melons didn’t grow…

Ye Mo insisted on a multi-melon plant, and there was another reason, to prevent the watermelon from growing too big.

Seeing Ye Mo’s insistence, Lin Xiaomian stopped insisting. Indeed, she had never grown watermelons before. And Ye Mo is a man who has grown more than two hundred catties of watermelons.

Ye Mo took out his mobile phone and called the fertilizer company…

The next day, 20 tons of cake fertilizer were delivered.

The weather is getting warmer day by day.

There is a lot of organic fertilizer in the melon field, the weeds grow fast, and the melon vines also grow up.

Ye Mo continued to call Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Tang Xun and their family to come and help. What Ye Mo remembered was definitely not asking everyone to come and work voluntarily. When the watermelon is sold, it will be counted for everyone.

52,000 watermelons, 25,000 muskmelons, and 11,000 netted melons.

The netted melons are planted on the side of the bamboo raft…

so many melon seedlings, all the work has to follow.

The earliest watermelon seedlings were planted, and seven or eight true leaves have grown.

When there are five or six true leaves, they will start to toss. Put a piece of mud or soil on the side of the base of the melon vine extending in the opposite direction of the main vine to make sure the melon vine grows in one direction.

After pouring, it is necessary to start water and fertilizer management.

Vine fertilizer, that is, water-soluble fertilizer that promotes vines…

When pouring, clean up the weeds by the way. These tasks can only be done by human…

There is a lot of work in the watermelon fields.

After the vines are down, the vines need to be pruned every two or three days.

After the vines have grown, the vines must be pressed. Pressing the vines is for the directional positioning of the melon vines, promoting the growth of adventitious roots, and expanding the nutrient absorption area of the plant.

The management of watermelon and cantaloupe is similar.

The netted melon climbed on the shelf, and the melon vine needs to be fixed.

Netted melons are the easiest to manage, just fix them with straps.

Fix the netted melons, and at the end of the month, I will start tidying the melons and vines again. The time is very tight and there is a lot of work.

Although there are many people, there is also a lot of work to do.

Planting watermelons, time waits for no one. All tasks must follow the time…
