I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 317 Fertilizer

The departure of the bark did not affect the inherent life of the Qingque tribe.

Even with the negative teaching material of bark, everyone in the Qingque tribe recognized and supported the tribe even more.

The harvested rapeseed can be finished in one more game, and Han Cheng is not in a hurry to let people dig through the harvested rapeseed field.

There are a lot of rapeseeds that fell on the ground this year. The dormancy period of rapeseeds is very short, and now some small rapeseeds have emerged from the ground.

These new rapeseeds are difficult to bloom and bear fruit, but they are still very good for cooking.

The foundation of the new house in the courtyard has been laid, and the stone wall is more than one meter above the ground.

Further up, it is easy to use the plate-building method to build an earth wall.

Just when everyone was trying their best to flatten the earthen wall, they were stopped by the Son of God.

Under Han Cheng's guidance, everyone began to pick up loads of soil from the outside, and put the soil into the room that already had an outline.

This layer of soil is very necessary, the room is high and not easy to get damp.

The millet is growing well, and the seedlings are green. The only thing that makes people uncomfortable is that there is a lot of grass in the field.

At this time, there was no hoe, not to mention pesticides. All that could be done was to pull it out by hand, or to squat in the ground with a small bone shovel or a small stone shovel tied to a wooden handle.

The bone shovel and stone shovel should not be too wide, otherwise it will easily hurt the seedlings.

Don't say that the Qingque tribe doesn't have hoes. At this time, even if they have hoes, they won't be of much use.

It's not that hoes don't work well, but that the planting method of millet in the Qingque tribe is not conducive to weeding with hoes.

Except for a very small part of these millets, which are planted by the ditch-long method, the rest are sown.

Grass seedlings are distributed randomly, and the hoes are too big. At this time, weeding is not as convenient and safe as pulling by hand and shoveling with a small bone shovel.

There is also a reason why not all plants are planted in ditches, because it is too troublesome to use a bone shovel to dig out ditches on the plowed land, and then sow seeds along the ditches by hand.

So except for the very first part, the rest are sowers.

These methods are convenient when planting, but more troublesome when taking care of them.

The columbine cart and hoe, these two things have to be produced as soon as possible.

At this time, the Qingque Tribe planted less land, but it was good to say that they were busy, and when the cultivated area increased greatly in the coming year, if they planted in this way, part of the farmland would definitely be barren.

Thinking about this, Han Cheng wrote down two more things on the pottery board.

These two things need to be done as soon as possible, at least not to delay next year's millet planting.

The weeds pulled from the fields are not wasted. They are piled together in piles in the seedling field. After the day's work is over, someone will collect these weeds.

Some clean and good grass is used to feed rabbits and chickens, and the rest are all piled up in the big pit near the tribe and the field.

This pit was newly dug when soil was collected for building a house, and it has not yet fully formed.

The weeds are piled up at the north end of the pit, and the south end is still used for tribal people to fetch soil.

Wu once asked Han Cheng about this matter. In his opinion, these grasses are good for lighting a fire after drying, but now they are all piled up in the pit, which is a bit of a waste.

Retting?

Wu was thinking about the new word he learned from Shenzi in his heart.

There is so much grass, is there any difference between burning it and putting it on the ground, and retting it with water and then putting it on the ground?

And it looks even more troublesome.

With Han Cheng, a time traveler, the Qingque Tribe had a very high starting point for farming.

Instead of starting from the initial slash-and-burn cultivation, and then step by step after years of exploration, all kinds of experience in intensive farming are obtained, but under limited conditions, as much as possible in one step.

Wu Wu, including many other people in the Qingque tribe, who had never seen what crops looked like on the land without fertilization, actually had some doubts about the important role of fertilization on crops that Han Cheng said.

This is not to say that they don't trust Han Cheng, otherwise they all followed Han Cheng's instructions, but the common problem of most people is that they always feel that seeing is believing and hearing is not believing.

After thinking about it, Wu Si came to Han Cheng and told him what he thought.

His idea is very simple, he wants to wait until next year when crops are planted, set aside a piece of land without fertilizing, and compare it with the surrounding crops.

Han Cheng, who understood Wu's meaning, smiled secretly, and readily agreed with Wu's idea.

As a person from later generations, he knows best whether the land needs to be fertilized.

If it weren't for the use of chemical fertilizers and excellent varieties, it would be impossible for future generations to achieve that amazing level of yield per mu.

It's good to set aside a piece of land for comparison, and it can make Wu and the others understand the importance of fertilizing the land more deeply, and they can do better in the future planting.

In fact, it doesn't matter if Han Chengtong agrees to set aside some land for comparison, because the Qingque Tribe's land will have an explosive growth in the coming year, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to cultivate it everywhere like this.

The accumulated fertilizer can only come from a part of the land.

One thing, the bark who was exiled was not wrong, the second senior brother really likes to take a nap now.

Sometimes I can fall asleep while talking to people.

At night, he fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed as soon as it was dark. He didn't wake up very much all night, and his spouse didn't touch him very much.

Sometimes his spouse couldn't hold back listening to the original ditty coming from the next door, and the second brother just sat on the kang, leaned there and let the spouse do it by himself.

Not only that, even the food is not as delicious as before.

The second senior brother always fell asleep, so everyone didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Han Cheng was busy thinking about how to get the hoe out.

Hoe It is very necessary to get the hoe out. On the one hand, it can be used to weed the field, and on the other hand, it can also be used to reclaim wasteland and plow the ground.

Compared with the bone shovel, the advantage of the hoe is greater when turning the ground.

He was aware of the situation of the second senior brother, but he didn't take it to heart either.

It is said that spring is sleepy and autumn is exhausted, summer dozes off, winter dozes off, who hasn't been sleepy and has a bad appetite?

This situation lasted for almost a month, and Han Cheng finally realized that something was unusual.

After such a long time, the second senior brother not only didn't have enough sleepiness, but became less and less energetic. He seemed to be in a trance, as if he couldn't wake up.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that he looks a lot thinner, his complexion is yellow, and there is little blood.

Even the favorite sling is not very interested in throwing it away.
