What season is awn seed?

Mango is the ninth of the 24 solar terms and the third in summer, so it is planted in summer.

"awn seed" means "grain crops with awns can be planted, and they will become invalid after planting" This season, the temperature rises obviously, the rainfall is abundant and the air humidity is high, which is suitable for planting cereal crops such as late rice. Agricultural planting is bounded by the solar term "awn seed", and the survival rate of planting has become lower and lower since then. It is the reflection of ancient farming culture in festivals. Crops such as cabbage, water spinach, peppers and beans can usually be planted in the awning season.

1. Chinese cabbage: water 1 time every 7 days after sowing, and topdressing high-nitrogen compound fertilizer in time.

2. Water spinach: It is necessary to strengthen the management of fertilizer and water during the planting process, and it can be harvested in about 3 months.

3. Pepper: Sufficient organic fertilizer should be applied before planting, and phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer should be applied later.

4. beans: the planting time is around June every year, and organic fertilizer should be applied every month 1 time during the planting period.

Agricultural activities of awn seeds

"Miscanthus", also known as "busy planting" among the people, is the sowing season for cereal crops such as late rice. For most parts of China, the dawn is the busiest time of the year. The period from awning to summer to Sunday is the busy climax of sowing, transplanting and seedling management of autumn crops. The folk proverb, "Mang seeds are busy, but seedlings are late", says that Mang seeds are a busy season for transplanting rice seedlings. In the awning season, crops such as rice grow vigorously and need a lot of water. Moderate rainfall is very beneficial to agricultural production.

The water supply of ancient crops in China depended on the precipitation in the sky and rivers on the ground, and farming was mainly concentrated in areas with abundant precipitation and developed river networks. Until now, farmers in these areas are still engaged in agricultural production according to solar terms, temperature and precipitation. The solar term of mango is the beginning of noon month in the dry calendar, in midsummer. At that time, everything grew and had great potential. From the beginning of awning to the summer, it is the peak of the crazy growth of everything in a year.
