Chapter 213 Cultivating Cold-tolerant Potatoes 1
In order to cope with the temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero in the greenhouse, the sweet potato vines shrink the area of all their leaves. The thick leaves and sturdy stems are also for absorbing nutrients and resisting the cold. I just don't know to what extent the cold it can withstand now.
Lu Bei'er followed Mr. Zhao's instructions and tried not to channel her wood-based abilities while they still looked strong.
After checking the sweet potato seedlings, Jiang Bai and Lu Bei'er handed the two ginkgo nuts to Mr. Zhao and Professor Zhang.
As it turned out, they were really interested and asked Lu Bei'er to take out the other fruits and the vines that bore them.
Lu Bei'er did not refuse.
Mr. Zhao and his colleagues are currently working on a very simple experiment, and since they really have nothing, they can only use the old method, which is Professor Zhang's special ability - tasting.
As they were unsure whether the fruit was poisonous, Mr. Zhao and other researchers did not agree with Professor Zhang's fearless request to try it.
Fortunately, Jiang Bai told Lu Bei'er about the black snake and took out the tiny black dead snake body and gave it to them.
The few of them were pleasantly surprised and happily started to study it together.
In addition to the little black snake, Jiang Bai also went to find Zhang Yue and the others and threw a giant python to them.
The giant python is so huge that there is currently no warehouse in the camp that can hold it.
So Zhang Yue and Luo Dahu found an open space next to the camp and recruited dozens of helpers, all of whom were warriors with various special powers.
The metal system is responsible for peeling and cutting, the water system and the earth system directly set up the stove to boil water for cleaning, and the others just get started and contribute what they can.
Before the giant python was frozen, they cut the dozens-meter-long body of the python into countless pieces in a leeward place in the camp.
Luo Dahu and several other people carried the cleaned python skin and praised it: "This snake skin is hard and flexible, it is a rare good material! And what about the snake gall? Don't tear it! We have to save it for Mr. Zhao and the others!"
"It's here with me. I'll send it to them now!" Li Shuanglin was holding a huge bathtub filled with shiny black snake gallbladders.
If I didn't know it was snake gall, at first glance I would have thought I was holding a basin of pitch-black ink.
Seeing the long-lost smile on the soldier's face, Jiang Bai took Lu Bei'er back to his own cabin early, thinking that the camp would be able to have meat again tonight.
The three vines in the board house had produced remarkable results, and the two-meter by two-meter quilt was made into a good shape. Lu Beier gave them spiritual spring water and wood-related supernatural powers, which made the three of them very motivated, and they were determined to make the quilt and give it to their owner today.
Very good, Lu Beier is very satisfied with the enthusiasm of these three people in working.
It was still early, so she planned to clear a piece of land in front of their cabin and not build a shed to keep them warm. She would just try to grow cold-resistant crops in the temperature of minus sixty degrees Celsius outside.
"Have you decided how much land you want and what kind of crops you want to grow?"
Jiang Bai helped clear the area in front of the door of the board house. He used the space to quickly clean up the snow, weeds, dead branches, and pebbles.
While Lu Bei'er started searching in her warehouse, she did not forget to answer Jiang Bai.
"I think that with such low temperatures, I would first experiment with fruits that grow in the soil, like sweet potatoes. Crops that grow outside, such as rice and wheat, should not be able to adapt to the cold faster than crops like sweet potatoes that grow in the soil."
Jiang Bai nodded when he heard this, "I think your idea is right! You can give it a try!"
So Lu Beier took out a few potatoes from the warehouse.
"I'll use the wood element to germinate first to see if it can survive."
The several buds on the potatoes were stimulated by the wood element to grow to about one finger long, and they were directly planted in the temperature of minus sixty degrees Celsius.
Unfortunately, in less than half a minute, the tender sprouts sticking out of the soil had already become frozen brittle and shattered at the touch, and the potatoes underneath seemed to be frozen hard as well.
Expected result.
She continued to take two potatoes from the space. This time, Lu Beier tried to make the leaves of the sprouts as thick and sturdy as the sweet potato seedlings in the greenhouse.
It's just that my first attempt was a bit awkward.
Although the seedlings that were stimulated to grow the second time were much stronger, their leaves and stems were not much different from ordinary potato seedlings, and they soon dried up and became brittle when planted in the ground.
I tried several times and failed every time.
"Go back to the space and rest for a while. This is not something that can be done in a pinch! Look at your hands, they are all frozen red!"
Jiang Bai held her already red fingers, not even bothering with the dirt on them.
"I'll try a few more times! Then I'll go back to my space to warm up!"
Unable to persuade Lu Bei'er, Jiang Bai stuffed several hot packs into her palms.
We tried several times to induce labor, and even buried potatoes in the ground to induce labor directly, but still failed.
This time Jiang Bai directly pulled her into the space, "You can think about what to try next in the space, and then go out after you have thought it through. What do you want to eat? I'll get you some fruit."
"Yeah, I want a fruit platter!"
After washing their hands, the two ate from the colorful fruit plate and looked at the lush potatoes in the farmland in front of them, which were still a little way from maturity.
After eating the fruit, Lu Beier decided to harvest the five or six hundred acres of potatoes, and then use them as seeds to plant outside.
While Lu Bei'er was using the wood element to induce labor, Jiang Bai found a potato harvester from some warehouse and followed behind her to turn the soil and harvest.
Nearly 100 acres can be harvested in one hour.
The potato yield per mu in the space is more than 8,000 kilograms, which is a relatively high yield.
It took the two of them six or seven hours to finally harvest nearly four and a half million kilograms of potatoes from five or six hundred acres of land and store them in the warehouse.
It was already dark outside the space. Sanzhuteng and Xiaojiu also got off work after dark. They leaned on the sofa in front of the fireplace and started watching TV series on their tablets again.
For dinner, we had scrambled eggs with tomatoes, blanched Chinese cabbage and beef stew with potatoes, which were made with potatoes that had just been harvested in the space.
Today we also moved a small dining table and placed the food directly on the grass in front of the villa. It was a unique experience to look at the pastoral scenery in the entire space while eating.
Even Xiao Huang and Luna, who had been having fun all over the space, came over and acted coquettishly after smelling the aroma of the food.
Jiang Bai simply gave them two small bowls of potato beef.
Luna doesn't eat potatoes, she only eats beef. Later, all the remaining potatoes in her bowl were eaten up by Xiao Huang.
After dinner and a short rest, Lu Beier felt that she still had enough energy, so she pulled Jiang Bai to replant potatoes on the five or six hundred acres of land. One of them used spiritual springs and wood elements to warm the land, while the other used a seeder to directly plow the soil and sow the seeds.
They worked for another four or five hours. If the seed drill had not been modified by Jiang Bai, the two of them might not have been able to finish planting the five or six hundred acres of land.
After the crops were planted, Lu Bei'er was still telling Jiang Bai about a new breeding method she had figured out, such as using spiritual spring water and wood elements together to nurture the seedlings, and then mixing in some soil from the space to see what the effect would be.
Before he could finish what he was saying, Jiang Bai pulled him to the bedroom upstairs in the villa, where he washed up and went to bed.
He felt that she must still have a lot of energy left for the day, so he decided to let her vent it out in bed!
