Qiao Xuejun followed him and said, "Let's go and take a look."
The two of them hurried out. Meng Ka looked at their backs and sighed, "Teacher Qiao is really busy. The last time I came to the First Base, she was planting purple flowers downstairs and was also very busy."
I didn't even respond to her when I spoke to her.
Yuan Zhiyi said: "It's quite busy, taking care of the food and drink at the base."
At this point, Yuan Zhiyi asked Meng Ka: "How is it going? Have we grown anything from the seeds we exchanged with the First Base?"
Meng Ka's face looked a little awkward: "Don't worry, it's only been a few days, four or five days, it's not enough time for germination."
Yuan Zhiyi frowned: "So none of them have sprouted yet?"
Mengka: "You have to wait. Wait a minute."
Yuan Zhiyi nodded and asked, "What about rye?"
They collected wild rye and planted some on a patch of land on the shore and also grew some in the greenhouse on the ship.
Rye has been planted a long time ago, so it shouldn't be that there is no progress.
Mengka's face turned darker.
"Rye...rye..."
Yuan Zhiyi: "Stuttering?"
Mengka: "It's cold, and the rye isn't growing at all!" It's even a little dying because of the drop in temperature.
Yuan Zhiyi: "What about the ones in the greenhouse?"
Mengka: "Some of them collapsed and grew close to the ground."
Yuan Zhiyi: “?”
Is this normal?
Yuan Zhiyi said: "Even if I have never been inside the fence of the experimental field, even if I look in from outside the fence, I can see that Teacher Qiao's rye is growing lush and green. It's so vigorous."
Mengka argued: "Ours will too, sooner or later."
Yuan Zhiyi asked again: "I heard them talking about helping Teacher Qiao to change the soil with a hoe. Do you know how to change the soil?"
Mengka: "Isn't it just turning it over and adding some fertilizer and charcoal?"
The defense of the experimental field was not tight at the beginning, and there was no iron fence around it, so everyone saw it, and they in Haibao also made special inquiries about it.
So I followed Qiao Xuejun's instructions and did the same.
Yuan Zhiyi: "Do you know why we need to add charcoal?"
Mengka: "...Because we need to change the soil?"
Yuan Zhiyi: "…because the soil on their mountain is lumpy and has been affected by acid rain, so charcoal can make the land less compact and reduce the acidity. However, our rye is planted on the hillside near the coast, where the soil is very moist, not lumpy at all, and not acidic. It is soaked in seawater every day, and it is almost becoming saline-alkali land!"
Yuan Zhiyi felt ashamed: "I'm even imitating others by adding charcoal!"
This is what she learned from chatting these days.
