Grain Rain proverb

First, Grain Rain is prosperous, and every moment is worth a thousand dollars.

In Grain Rain season, the temperature in most parts of China is stable above 65438 05℃. At this time, corn has been planted in most places, as well as cotton, melons and beans.

As the saying goes, "Spring rain is as expensive as oil", abundant rain can promote the growth and development of seedlings, greatly improve the emergence rate of seeds, and seedlings will grow stronger.

"Prosperity" shows that it rains heavily, even for a moment, which is worth 1,000 yuan. It also shows that the more it rains before and after in Grain Rain, the better. Farmers depend on the weather for food, and the rainfall during this period has affected this year's grain harvest to some extent.

Second, in Grain Rain season, crops are planted and cotton is planted in the south slope and the north depression.

As the saying goes, "Snow breaks Qingming, frost breaks Grain Rain". The Grain Rain solar term means that the cold wave weather has officially ended, and many places in China have begun to heat up.

When sowing cotton, it is required that the soil temperature of 5CM should be kept above 65438 05℃, and the best sowing date should be around April 20th (Grain Rain), so that the seeds will not rot easily.

As the saying goes, "One person is wrong for a while, and one person is wrong for a year", Grain Rain is the best time to plant cotton, and all cotton-producing areas are busy planting cotton. Only by grasping the season well can we ensure that the farming season will not be delayed.

Third, before and after Grain Rain, we planted melons and beans.

As the saying goes, "Rain gives birth to a hundred valleys". Due to the heavy rain around Grain Rain, the temperature and soil moisture reached a more favorable time for sowing. Sowing at this time, the unearthed seedlings will not freeze to death, and the soil moisture can completely meet the conditions of seed germination.

In addition, Grain Rain is half a month away from the long summer, and the temperature is not too high. Proper low temperature is beneficial to cultivate strong seedlings, which are not only resistant to disease, but also an important condition for high yield of melon and beans.

On the contrary, high temperature is easy to cause seedlings to grow white, which is not conducive to the improvement of crop yield. It can be said that "before and after Grain Rain, we planted melons and got beans", which is of great guiding significance to agriculture and fully embodies the wisdom of our ancestors.

Four, Grain Rain before and after planting sweet potatoes, it is best not to cross the long summer.

The sweet potato here refers to "sweet potato". Most sweet potatoes are cultivated by cutting seedlings. When the sweet potato seedlings are transplanted into the field, the temperature should be kept above 65438 05℃. Cultivating sweet potato at this time is beneficial to the rapid rooting of sweet potato seedlings. There is a saying in the countryside that "Grain Rain plants sweet potato seedlings, and one tree can harvest a big basket", which means that cultivating sweet potato seedlings at this time is conducive to high yield of sweet potatoes.

"It's best not to visit the long summer" is a bit exaggerated. The sweet potato I planted in early June last year is also growing well. Why is it best not to go to the long summer? I think the main reason is that the latest harvest time of sweet potato is before the first frost, and too late cultivation is not conducive to the full expansion of the fruit.

Grain Rain Mai is pregnant and has a long beard in summer.

In northern China, Grain Rain season is the heading and flowering period of winter wheat, "pregnant wheat" refers to wheat heading, and "long beard" refers to the emergence of wheat awns. The time interval between the two is about half a month, which is also quite consistent.

Of course, the 24 solar terms originated in the Yellow River Basin. China has a vast territory, and the climate varies greatly in different regions. For example, Grain Rain is the season for harvesting wheat. Generally, wheat will be completely harvested in mid-May, and the sowing time of corn will not exceed mid-May.
