Chapter 738 The Great Effect of Plant Ash (Subscribe)
"Isn't that when the water is poured, it will run out?"

"It turns out that the straw is put inside to serve as a steel bar!"

"Didn't you hear what the anchor said was the earliest!"

"The anchor has only been in the mountains for half a month. It's fine if he can last half a month. It's useless to make it so strong."

At this time, Li Yuan had already built the earthen stove.

The earthen stove is not very big, and it is not as high as the ones used at home, but Li Yuan has carefully designed it, except for the necessary air outlet and air inlet of the earthen stove.

Li Yuan even left a flue specially for exhausting smoke.

Li Yuan: "This stove, even if it's set up now, move the fire pile into it later, and then build a flue for it, so that the problem of smoke exhaust will be solved."

Studio.

"The flue? The anchor still has the flue?"

"Is the anchor talking about the round hole on the stove?"

"Young Master Li is quite thoughtful, but... you can't even find iron in this mountain forest, and there is no bamboo. How can you use it as a flue?"

"Yes! How about this flue?"

"That's right, the tree used to make fire zippers shouldn't be as thick as the flue?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I have already considered this issue. When the time comes, I will use branches to make a simple flue. Although the effect will be worse, it is still better than nothing."

Li Yuanan placed the stove about two meters away from the wooden bed for two people.

This location is more ventilated, and when the fire is burning, it will not be too hot, and it is much more convenient for heating, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

After setting up the stove, Hu Kai woke up leisurely from the wooden bed.

Li Yuan heard the movement, glanced at Hu Kai who got up from the bed, and greeted with a smile.

"woke up?"

Hu Kai rubbed his eyes and let out a dazed 'hmm'.

Hu Kai: "Well. Xiaoyuan, what are you doing so early?"

Li Yuan: "It's okay, I built a stove with stones, so that we can use fire in the future, and after the clay pots are ready, it will be more convenient to boil water and so on."

Hu Kai groaned, stretched his waist, and then got off the wooden bed.

Hu Kai: "Is this done? What can I do for you?"

Li Yuan shook his head.

"There is nothing to do. I just left some food for you. You can eat and bring you something. I can do this work myself."

Hu Kai looked at the stone table.

Sure enough, there were several wild fruits neatly placed on it, as well as two baked potato heads.

Hu Kai sat on the paved grass and picked up the potato with his hands.

Well, it's still hot.

Hu Kai: "Taro? When did you dig it?"

Peel the skin and eat taro.

Hu Kai asked vaguely while eating.

Li Yuan nodded.

"I got up in the morning and went for a walk in the mountains, and I happened to come across it. The taro is not big, but the taste is quite good, but there are too few. I only found two taro trees."

Hu Kai tasted it.

The taste is fragrant and really delicious, and when eaten with sour fruit on the side, it tastes like bread and jam.

Hu Kai was having breakfast on the stone table, while Li Yuan was currently moving the kindling from the nearby fire to the built stove.

But after a while, Li Yuan had already moved the charcoal into the stove, and added some wood by the way to make the flames burn bigger and the stove to dry faster.

It's just because there is a lot of water in the soil of the stove, so a lot of smoke came out when it was just burning.

Fortunately, when Li Yuan built the stove, he considered the wind direction. Only a small part of the smoke drifted to the direction of the wooden bed, and the rest followed the direction of the wind.

The fire was removed, and the place where the fire was originally burning had already accumulated a lot of ash after one night.

Li Yuan took out the broom made from branches before, carefully collected it and plant ash, then wrapped it with leaves, scattered some around the base, and wrapped the other part with leaves for storage.

Studio.

"The anchor's skills are good! The smoke was really blown away."

"The youngest of the Li family is a bit powerful."

"As expected of a country anchor, the anchor really knows a lot about these things."

"The direction of the flue... 666!"

"Is this the so-called pyrotechnic gas?"

"Hey, what is the anchor doing? Why is this plant ash scattered near the base?"

"Yeah, won't there be dust when the wind blows?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Well, there is indeed some dust in the plant ash, but the wind in the mountains and forests is not so strong, and there are trees to cover it, so it's not a big problem."

"And compared to the benefits of plant ash, eating this ash is nothing."

"Plant ash can be used as a fertilizer to make plants grow better, and if it is scattered nearby, it can also have a certain effect of sterilizing and repelling insects."

In rural areas, plant ash can be said to be one of the most common fertilizers, and plant ash can be used in various growth periods of crops.

Plant ash is not only suitable for making base fertilizer, but also can be used for top dressing and seed fertilizer.

As topdressing, it can not only supply plant nutrients, but also reduce or prevent the occurrence and damage of pests and diseases to a certain extent.Especially for the seedling stage of plants such as rice and vegetables, it is more suitable for the use of plant ash.

Because the color of plant ash is relatively dark, and it also contains a certain amount of carbon, it absorbs heat quickly and increases temperature, and its texture is light. It not only supplies nutrients, but also helps to increase ground temperature and prevent rotten seedlings, especially when applied to leguminous crops on acidic soil to increase production. The effect is very obvious.

At the earliest, all the land in the countryside was directly burned to ashes in the fields, which can not only reduce pest damage, but also use the plant ash to nourish the land and act as natural expenses, so that the plants will grow more vigorously in the coming year.

And in addition, plant ash also has a good effect on sterilization and disinfection.

However, this plant ash is also different.

After the plant ash of straw is burned, the effect of making fertilizer is the best, and the effect of this kind of wood is second.

Moreover, even the plant ash of the same material has different nutrients according to the length of burning time.

The somewhat whitish plant ash in front of Li Yuan's eyes at this time actually contains far less potassium than the black-gray plant ash.

Studio.

"So this is ah!"

"I said why the anchor sprinkled so much plant ash nearby."

"learnt."

"Does this plant ash have so many functions?"

"There are also a lot of alkaline substances in plant ash, so it does have a certain bactericidal effect. Like the earliest days, the ancients used plant ash to brush their teeth."

"There is also the hemostasis of the wound, which also uses plant ash."

"That's right! I've seen this on TV, and it's used to bandage wounds!"

"But... how dirty this thing is!"

"It just looks dirty. It has been sterilized by high temperature. There is no problem in treating the wound."
