What are the customs of the first frost solar terms?

The solar terms in the first frost mainly include the customs of enjoying chrysanthemums, eating persimmons and pulling out radishes.

1, enjoy chrysanthemum

In ancient times, there was a saying that "frost beats chrysanthemums". Climbing mountains and enjoying chrysanthemums naturally became the most pleasant thing in the first frost period. Autumn is the season when chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and chrysanthemum exhibitions will be held all over the country to show their love and affection for chrysanthemums.

Step 2 eat persimmons

First frost, it is the time when persimmons are ripe. At this time, the persimmon skin is thin and fragrant, with high nutritional value, and the vitamins and sugar are about 1~2 times that of ordinary fruits.

Step 3 pull out radish

Shandong farmers said: "Summer sorghum, Bailu Valley, the first frost is like radish." There is also a saying called "the first frost of radish", that is, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large after the first frost. If the radish is not harvested in time, Pipi will get frostbite, which will affect the quality and harvest.

Agricultural activities during the first frost

After the first frost solar terms, cold air activities become more frequent, and the temperature difference between day and night becomes larger. The "first frost" solar term has nothing to do with "first frost", which does not mean that entering the first frost solar term will lead to "first frost". In fact, "frost" does not fall from the sky, but the water vapor on the ground condenses when it meets cold air due to temperature difference changes. There is no concept of "first frost" in meteorology. Generally speaking, the first frost in autumn is called "first frost" or "first frost".

The last frost in spring is called "late frost" or "final frost"; The interval from the last frost to the first frost is a frost-free period. In the first frost season, most parts of the north have been harvested in autumn. Even cold-resistant onions can't grow any longer, because "the first frost can't support onions, and the longer they grow, the more empty they are." In the south, it is the peak season of "Sanqiu". Only single-season hybrid rice and late rice are harvested, and early-season wheat and early-season rape are planted. Picking cotton, pulling cotton stalks, ploughing and soil preparation.
