Ask for trouble and experience the hardships of vegetable farmers.

This spring, when I was over sixty, I had a whim and decided to plant eggplant in a small arch shed.

When the family and children heard about it, they all objected, saying that you are so old, stop that now and don't ask for it. ...

My friends know what I think, but they also have different views: don't be blessed, look for sin. ...

Of course, their suggestions are well-meaning, caring, caring and more affectionate.

People's character is hard to change. Since childhood, I have been stubborn, outspoken, accommodating, inflexible and easygoing. Therefore, in the leadership position of the unit, you will not flatter, you will not flatter.

I listen to others and weigh the pros and cons, but I don't listen. I go my own way and do what I think is good.

At first, contact the seedling agent, book the number of eggplant seedlings, pay the deposit, leave a phone number and wait for the arrival of seedlings.

Second, level the land. Ask the seedling agent, go to other people's plantations nearby, check the articles and videos about planting eggplant in small arch shed from Baidu, and do it seriously as required.

The line spacing is very narrow. Line width 1.2m, line width 0.6m, and height of soil in narrow line 5-8cm. Because eggplant is afraid of waterlogging during its growth, it is necessary to prepare for drainage and waterlogging prevention.

In the first year of planting, all necessary items should be purchased. Black plastic film, bamboo slice, arched shed film, herbicide, etc.

Spraying herbicides on the ridged land first, and then covering it with black plastic film, which absorbs sunlight better than white plastic film and inhibits the rooting and germination of grass.

Eggplant seedlings were planted on the morning of April 6, with a spacing of 70 cm -80 cm. Seedlings should be planted deep, which is what the relevant information says. As for the reasons, I won't go into details here.

My family and children are not at home, so I have to ask two people for help. Because I have to water, insert bamboo pieces, cover with plastic film and press the soil, I am very busy. Three people planted 300 eggplant seedlings.

This is the first time that we have done this work. We have no experience, no guidance, and we are doing it in our groping. They are all country people and are familiar with farm work, but it is impossible to say how well they have done it.

Because it is a nutritious pot seedling, the roots have dark brown nutrient soil and the stems have small clips. This is a grafted seedling. It is said that the roots are wild eggplant and the upper parts are good seedlings. After grafting, the root system is developed, which is resistant to premature aging and not allowed to wilt.

Three people made a division of labor, two people planted seedlings with melon shovels and one inserted bamboo pieces according to the prescribed row spacing.

To plant saplings, first dig a small hole on the back of the ridge, and plant it as deep as possible at the same depth. Seedlings between two narrow rows should be planted alternately to avoid competing for sunlight, water and fertilizer during the growth stage.

Bamboo chips are 2 meters long and 2-3 centimeters wide. Insert the two ends of the bamboo piece into the soil in a semicircle, then cover it with a film, tie the film tightly and lean against the bamboo piece. Finally, press both sides of the film on the soil to prevent the film from being blown off by strong wind.

When the sun sets, we finish our work and look from a distance, like a long white dragon lying on the ground one by one.

The next morning, I watered the newly planted seedlings and everything went well. It took me more than an hour to finish the first irrigation task.

Because it is planted in early April of the solar calendar, the temperature difference between day and night is not big, so the small arch shed does not need ventilation.

During the day, due to the sunshine, the temperature in the small arch shed is higher than that outside the shed, the seedlings take root and grow, the water and fertilizer are sufficient, the sunshine is warm, and the seedlings gradually grow big leaves.

In late April, the weather turned warmer, the ground temperature rose, and the temperature in the shed was higher during the day. At this time, it is necessary to ventilate the arch shed during the day, that is, to open several holes on both sides of the small arch shed as appropriate (the membrane of the arch shed should be lifted a little) to let the temperature of the small arch shed drop, otherwise the temperature in the shed will be too high and the seedlings will be burned to death.

For more than ten days, depending on the weather, ventilate the small arch shed at ten o'clock in the morning and cover the ventilation hole at four o'clock in the afternoon. First, low temperature at night will affect the growth of seedlings. Second, fear of the wind at night will scrape the membrane of the small arch shed.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it is not easy to do one thing. At first, I only knew that vegetable farmers were suffering, but I didn't expect such trouble. But this is really just the beginning. From now on, pest control, weeding, scaffolding, picking, sales and so on. There will be a lot of work, and the busy period is yet to come.

I didn't turn the arrow before opening the bow. Since you want to do something and do it well, you have to be not afraid of suffering. You should work hard, pay, sweat and reap.

When you eat delicious food, do you think of farmers, vegetable farmers and fruit farmers? They face the loess with their backs to the sky, and in the fields, they plant grain, vegetables and fruits with their hard hands. Without their labor, there would be no good life for the broad masses of people.

Experience the hardships of vegetable farmers, feel so difficult, get close to farmers, farmers are our parents.
