What are the solar terms in May: Long Summer and Little Man.

Long summer: People are used to long summer in long summer, but in fact, the summer in all parts of the south of the Yangtze River will be delayed by more than 20 days until the end of May or early June. An agricultural proverb says, "There are many kinds of seedlings in long summer, and Man Cang millet piles." All localities should pay close attention to transplanting rice seedlings and time management. "See the summer harvest in the long summer", spring flower crops enter the yellow ripening stage in the long summer season, and Zhejiang officially enters the rainy season in Chang Xia Hou. This is the beginning of the plum flood season, so it is necessary to make good preparations for flood control.

Xiaoman: It means that the wheat crops in the Yellow River valley are full and immature, while the spring flowers in Zhejiang are mature and the countryside is busy with harvest. Since May, Zhejiang has entered the flood season, and the farmer's proverb says that "villain, villain and boundless river" is in line with the reality of Zhejiang. The average temperature in the xiaoman period in Zhejiang can basically reach 22 ~ 23℃, which is the midsummer period.
