We are in the south of Hebei Plain. Harvest wheat in the awning season every year. There is a proverb: before April, after May. Why?

In this area of southern Hebei, if the wheat is planted in April of the lunar calendar, it will be cooked before it is finished; If you sow in May of the lunar calendar, the wheat will not mature until after sowing. This year is May of the Lunar New Year. A dry and hot wind blew, and the wheat was ripe in one day. I brought some green wheat fields yesterday, but today they are all yellow. Harvesting wheat is different from harvesting autumn. Harvesting wheat in autumn can be slow, but harvesting wheat is a hasty thing, because on May Day, children's faces change as they say. A strong wind and a heavy rain will not only bring trouble to the harvest, but also reduce production.

It is an approximate time period before and after harvesting wheat, which is the law summarized by the ancients. However, the growth of wheat is closely related to weather and soil environment, which may be delayed or advanced. Mainly pay attention to field management and increase production.

Mango is the ninth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms of the lunar calendar and the third solar term in summer, which indicates the official start of the summer season. When the sun reaches 75 degrees of the yellow meridian, it is called the mans solar term. The literal meaning of awn seed is "the wheat with awn is harvested quickly, and the rice with awn can be planted". "The Moon Order is seventy-two waiting for Ji Jie": "The May Festival means that there are awns in the valley." At this time, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China will enter the rainy Huangmei season.
