Chapter 871 What to Plant in the Greenhouse

Chapter 871 871. What to grow in greenhouses

Although the plan was to go to a greenhouse, Song Tan still had principles, saying that rest in winter is rest!

Therefore, this greenhouse is only two acres, not a penny more.

However, two acres of land may not seem big at first glance, but once the shed is erected, the space seems to be vast, so the land was divided into pieces, just waiting for planning.

This is a big deal. All members of the Old Song family are online, and Wu Lei has called back from the cattle farm.

He was also holding a juicy little lamb in his arms, with milky yellow hooves and snow-white fur. It was a little weak when it was just born. Wu Lei nursed and kept warm every day, and he was more considerate than the mother of the sheep!

The sheep are comparing themselves to each other. Now when he enters the sheepfold to feed, no sheep will bump his waist from behind.

The little lamb was bleating, sweet and well-behaved. Looking at it, Qiao Qiao instantly forgot about the oranges in the yard and sat down next to Wu Lei, ready to make a move.

But this time the meeting was about serious business.

"In just two or three months, everyone should quickly think about what are the advantages of growing in greenhouses in winter?"

No need to think about it? !

Zhang Yanping was wearing only a long-sleeved shirt in the warm room. Looking at the gloomy sky outside, he spoke first:

"Watermelon! It has to be watermelon! Eat watermelon around the stove!"

Song Tan waved his pen and said: "Write it down." It may take 80 to 110 days from sowing to maturity of watermelon. The time is a little tight, but if you start breeding from now on, there will be no problem!

Qiaoqiao raised her hand: "Can I grow strawberries? The strawberries on TV are all in the shed."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Song Tan nodded and said, "It's too late to sow seeds now. We have to buy finished seedlings. I'll call Professor Song."

Wu Lei has been raising cattle and sheep for a while, and he looks much more stable and reliable. Now everyone is talking, so he hesitated:

"Grow some cucumbers?"

It’s hot and dry in the winter, and we eat a lot of big fish and meat during the Chinese New Year, so taking a picture of a cucumber should be a good idea, right?

Song Tan thought for a while: "It makes sense! This can be done in 90 days, and we can catch up!"

Even if you can’t catch up, you have to catch up!

Xin Jun thought for a while: "What about... grapes? There is no advantage in growing vegetables in a greenhouse over fruits. If you buy some finished grape seedlings, it should be possible. Oranges, lemons, emperor tangerines, etc. seem to be fine."

Write it down! Song Tan writes like flying.

"But forget about the oranges. There are plans for oranges and emperor mandarins on the hillside next year. There is no need to replant these perennial woody trees in greenhouses."

"Then...tomatoes?"

Wulan has never built a greenhouse, so he is very cautious in his remarks at this moment: "The tomatoes I buy in winter don't even have the smell of tomatoes. Planting a few Chinese New Year scrambled eggs will also taste good."

That’s a must! Song Tan quickly wrote down, not even forgetting various varieties such as fruit tomatoes and small tomatoes.

"Then... let's plant some more chili peppers!" The seventh cousin pondered: "The taste of fresh chili peppers is different from that of dried chili peppers, so they are indispensable for cooking."

Chili peppers are afraid of freezing. Nowadays, they don’t have many fresh chili peppers to eat. No, a greenhouse can do that!

Song Sancheng sounded a little annoyed: "If you want to put it this way, if I had known we would have built more greenhouses on the mountain, vegetables would definitely be more expensive in winter."

Song Tan couldn't laugh or cry: "Dad, aren't you tired?"

When she first came back in the spring, it was time to catch up on the farming season. She had to do all the work assigned to her family every day, and the several acres of land were fully utilized. Her father said every day that he was too busy!

You must know that at that time, the family was still very poor, and all they had to do was use their old capital.

Now that he is not so short of money, he is more energetic.

Song Sancheng's expression was subtle: "Then what...haven't you still paid the final payment for your house on the mountain? Besides, your mother and I will buy a car later. Isn't that car free?"

Before Song Tan could say anything, Ulan snorted coldly: "What kind of car do you want? With your skills in getting a driver's license, how expensive do you want to buy it? It's going to hurt you to death if you touch it!"

The old mother has her own reasons for saving money: "Let's buy a cheap one first to practice - look at this second-hand pickup truck Tantan, isn't it of good quality? If not, let's buy one too."

Song Sancheng felt aggrieved: "I don't want anything expensive..."

100,000 head office, right?

Song Tan was smart enough not to get involved in this kind of topic. She put her notebook away at this moment and said, "Okay, that's almost it. We only have two acres of land. It's good to just plant this much."

As for the varieties, she didn't know much about it so she didn't worry about it, so she let Professor Song help.

However, Song Youde remembered something at this moment -

"Tantan, why don't you plant some more soybeans? We have guests at home in the winter, so I can make some cold edamame so that I can have a drink with them."

Song Tan:......

It didn't matter whether she drank alcohol or not, but the cold edamame was really delicious. She opened her book and added it again.

…

When the request for these varieties was sent to Professor Song, the other party stared at the [soybeans] for a moment, and then called:

"Song Tan, you are planting soybeans in the winter. Are there no more soybeans at home?"

There are quite a lot of harvests in the summer, and I haven’t heard that they are all finished!

Only then did Song Tan realize: "I don't want soybeans. There are plenty of soybeans. They are enough to be fried and used as snacks during the Chinese New Year. My grandpa wants to get some edamame to go with wine."

Speaking of wine, Professor Song thought about the bottle of good wine that he had gone through so much trouble to bring back and hide in the storage room, and he couldn't help but feel greedy again.

I can't drink, I can't drink. I still have something to do now. This drinking break will delay things too much!

After thinking for a while, he replied: "There are special varieties of edamame, Huning 95-1 and Qingsu 2... I'll ask for them for you, plant Huning."

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the fruits and vegetables in the list, and quickly thought about where to get ready-made seedlings to be sent over to shorten the planting time...

After a while, when he asked for information, some professors in the same field laughed at him:

"You! You, Old Song, were full of energy when you were young, but you became conservative when you got older."

"And your students... I'm not saying, you've taught them, you should train them well and then arrange them to do research in the laboratory... We lack such talents in agriculture!"

"You are so good, you only teach some basics, and it's quite exciting to go to the fields to farm... This is not our special scientific research talent!"

"I've also seen the topics you did this year, They are all practical farmers. We don't lack such students! "

"You are a teacher... You don't give your students any advantages at all!"

Professor Song said happily, not caring at all: "Old Yuan, I am old, and I think it's good for children to be stable and happy."

"In the past, we talked about dedication, but now children talk about stability. Everyone has their own ambitions. As a teacher, I just respect them."

"In scientific research, talent and concentration are indispensable. My students don't have such ability and courage. Why should I let the children keep unhappy things every day?"

"Besides, I have brought out many apprentices who are serious about scientific research over the years, and you have brought out many who are practical. You! Don't look at the children now with old eyes. If he is willing to learn, I will teach him, and if he wants to do anything, he can do it..."

Isn't this good.
