The Lucky Farmgirl has a Pocket Dimension - Chapter 120
Chapter 120 Planting Flowers Gets Flowers
Zhao Zhitong comforted him at first: “Don’t worry, little uncle, how could I cheat you.”
When I was annoyed by the urging later, I pouted and hummed: “Whoever said I can’t do it, I will figure it out right away. Look at you, it’s because you bother me. I don’t even know what to see.” Where is it?”
Then, several little cousins nodded one after another, and stood in a united front with Zhao Zhitong, accusing their uncles together: “Uncle, don’t talk, you’re annoying little cousin!”
Sun Youcai glared fiercely at the little radish heads, obviously they were not afraid, not only were they not afraid, they even stuck out their tongues at him.
Sun Youcai just felt that his little niece made these monkeys even skinnier.
At this time, Zhao Zhitong finally raised his head, and said with a small face in surprise: “Oh, I see.”
Actually, Grandpa Bai cheated on her.
After Grandpa Bai’s explanation, Zhao Zhitong finally knew what to do, so he pointed to the peony flower and said, “The book says that there are many ways to plant peonies, including branching, grafting, and cuttings.”
These boring knowledge, Sun Youcai listened to the question marks in his head, so he said anxiously: “Just tell us what we are going to do.”
Zhao Zhitong tapped Sun Youcai’s head with his small hand: “Little uncle, you are too impatient, you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry, you are wrong.”
After being taught a lesson, Sun Youcai said: “…” He muttered in his heart, why he couldn’t eat hot tofu anymore, he just ate it yesterday.
Zhao Zhitong continued: “The book says to choose short branches that germinate from the rhizosphere of large plants as cuttings.”
After finishing speaking, he squatted down to study the peony, then pointed to the fork on the peony and said, “Little uncle, this is the kind. You need to use scissors to cut out short branches about fifteen centimeters.”
Sun Youcai nodded, just as he was about to cut the scissors, he suddenly asked, “What is fifteen centimeters?”
Zhao Zhitong nodded his chin and thought for a while, then turned around and trotted into the room, and ran out again after a while, holding a strip of cloth in his hand, and handing it to Sun Youcai: “Little uncle, just cut it to this length! “
Sun Youcai took the cloth strip, slapped his chest confidently and said, “No problem, leave it to your little uncle.”
After finishing speaking, he began to immerse himself in cutting.
Sun Youcai started cutting cuttings, but Zhao Zhitong was in trouble.
The book says that after the cuttings are cut, they must be quickly dipped in 300 PPM of indole butyric acid before they can be inserted into the seedbed.
However, she didn’t know what indolebutyric acid water was.
So, he frowned and asked Grandpa Bai.
Grandpa Bai thought for a while and said: “It should be a kind of rooting water, which can help the cuttings to take root. If you don’t dip in the rooting water, the rooting rate of the cuttings will be very low.”
“Oh.” Zhao Zhitong said with sparkling eyes, “Wow, so there’s so much knowledge here, it’s amazing.”
Then he blinked and asked, “What if there is no indolebutyric acid water?”
Grandpa Bai was silent for a while: “I remember that there seems to be other rooting methods on the tree, you can look for it.”
Encountered difficulties, Zhao Zhitong is not a person who gives up lightly, nor is she discouraged at all, so she hurriedly searched for books, and she still couldn’t find them until Sun Youcai cut all the cuttings.
Sun Youcai didn’t dare to urge Zhao Zhitong now, but he still walked around anxiously around Zhao Zhitong.
After a while, Zhao Zhitong felt uncomfortable, and shouted: “Little uncle, stop walking around, my head is going to be dizzy by you.”
Sun Youcai: “I’m not in a hurry.”
At this moment, Zhao Zhitong turned another page of the book, and suddenly shouted: “I found it! The book says that you can soak it in sugar water, or soak wicker branches in hot water, as growth water, and it also has the effect of sterilizing bacteria!”
Sugar, she has a lot of space, so she trotted into the kitchen and soaked a large pot of diluted sugar water with hot water.
Sun Mei didn’t bother with her, and let a few little guys play and practice by themselves.
After Zhao Zhitong explained how to soak.
A few little guys squatted by the pot together, took the cuttings, and put them in the diluted soup.
Just when they were about to finish soaking, Zhao Zhitong suddenly blinked his eyes and said embarrassedly: “Little uncle, I just read that the book said that the root should be soaked in rooting water, that is, the lower part of the tooth. If it’s wrong, it won’t germinate.”
Then, I took the cuttings and explained to everyone that the teeth grow upwards, and they want to soak the bottom.
But just now, a group of them were only focused on putting it in the pot, without checking whether it was root or not.
Looking at the cuttings that were about to soak, Sun Youcai raised his hand and patted Zhao Zhitong’s little butt: “I said, my little ancestor, it doesn’t matter if you can read the book or not, and make us do useless work.”
After finishing speaking, he said to Sun Daji and the others: “Okay, don’t soak it yet, take it all out, let’s put it back in again.”
Then, he hugged Zhao Zhitong to the side again, and said earnestly: “Little ancestor, you sit here and read well. This time, it’s all good for me to read. Let’s soak.”
He was really scared. Afterwards, when they were all planted, and Zhao Zhitong was here, he would be **** to death.
Zhao Zhitong chuckled, stuck out his tongue, got off the stool, turned around and lay down on the stool, and began to study.
The book says that when cutting at home, the soil should be disinfected, and after crushing willow branches and soaking them in water, they can be poured directly on the soil, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria.
This time, after she finished all the research, she put the book on the bench and shouted: “Little uncle, go clubbing by yourself, first cousin, second cousin, let’s go, let’s go to the willow bar!”
Now this season, wicker is just in its growing season.
Sun Youcai looked up at her, nodded, and continued to work.
So, a few little guys put on their backs, scissors and sickles, and ran outside in a swarm.
There are willow trees not far from their door. They can’t reach the high ones, but they can cut the low ones. After a while, they cut a basket.
Zhao Zhitong looked at it and felt that it was almost done, so a few little radish heads ran back home again.
Sun Youcai looked at the wicker, always felt that Zhao Zhitong looked very unreliable, so he asked, “And then?”
Zhao Zhitong: “Crush the wicker and soak it in hot water. It needs to soak for a few days. After we insert it into the seedbed, we can water it directly.”
Next, Zhao Zhitong is much more reliable.
Because the cuttings need to be soaked for an hour and a half before they can be cut, Sun Youcai set off on the second day with a few radish heads.
When school was over that day, Zhao Zhitong went to check it out, and saw that Sun Youcai had inserted it and poured water on it.
Tell him to water every ten or fifteen days to keep the seedbed moist and shade the seedlings.
“Wait until September next year, we can share the load, and then we can get a lot of beautiful peonies.”
Looking at the little girl’s excited face, Sun Youcai stretched out his hand and squeezed it: “You little brat, don’t draw me a big cake!”
Zhao Zhitong hid from Sun Youcai and giggled.
