It's so delicious
How well did the chinese grow them
My country, the country with the largest area of watermelon cultivation in the world, has an area of over 20 million acres, or about half of the world's total area。
Shandong, henan, jiangsu, anhui, guangxi, ningxia watermelon has footprints in almost every province of the country。
The area is up, and production is naturally not low, and our total watermelon production can exceed 60 million tons per year, to the best of the world。
So many watermelons, who's in the belly
According to statistics, more than 99 per cent of our watermelons are self-employed and only about 0. 05 per cent are exported。
The per capita annual consumption of watermelons in our country is about 50 kg, which is truly “free to eat the melon”。
Was it a childhood filter or something
When it comes to how hard the chinese are eating, it is far from enough。
From summer to the anniversary, consumption has been limited from red, yellow, double-coloured, round, square, heart-friendly, sand-cracked, seed-free, and we have never stopped on the path of flower-eating melons。
However, during street visits, many consumers indicated that watermelons were not good as children。
Really
Let's go to pang towns in beijing, let's hear what the king of gua song shao can say
In your hearts, the name "pomponjo" has some meaning. The land has been growing watermelons for over 600 years。
This is the site of the everlasting river alluvial plains, where the soil is fertile, air-transmitting and hot, and which is very suitable for watermelon growth。
Song is a shopkeeper of the tunnel, who has been growing melons since his father's generation, and has witnessed the proliferation of the brands of melons and the evolution of our watermelon farming industry。
Soong smiled and said, "i actually think the watermelon is better than before. As a child, every family could not eat a few watermelons a year. Every time you eat a watermelon, you sit around the table and wait for a watermelon. It's a very good feeling. It's a very sweet watermelon."
In the course of the conversation, song mentioned the name of a guacamole buried deep in memory — a black patch — a childhood memory of many beijing children。
In 2004, song was preparing to replant some of the black bandages with a nostalgia. It was anticipated that it would be popular to return to the scene after many years。
The fact is, however, that it is far less than the current watermelon species, whether from the sweetness, taste or guacamole thickness。
Is the watermelon good or not, depending on what
So is the watermelon good? What depends on
According to experts, watermelon tastes are related to species, origin, cultivation patterns, maturity, etc。
First of all, good varieties are intrinsic guarantees of watermelon taste. Technological advances are constantly updating watermelon varieties, black melons, gills, selenium, 8424..
Consumers can almost buy sweet, juicy good melons as long as they choose the right varieties。
As early as 8424 watermelon. This is a high-quality watermelon species developed by shanghai agricultural experts and the twenty-fourth species, which was cultivated in 1984 and is therefore named 8424。
The sweetness of 842 watermelon is about 11 to 12 degrees, and everything is so soft that it's a soft, juicy, sweet mouth of watermelon that is now sold in the market。
The species of watermelons are constantly evolving。
In old song's gourd garden, hundreds of new varieties are introduced every year for cultivation. There is now a boom, with l600 representing over 90 per cent of the area under small watermelon cultivation。
L600 is a hybrid species, and the strong integration of genes has significantly increased the resistance of the melon to pests and diseases, thus providing a precondition for the growth of a good melon。
The watermelon is characterized by low skin seed, high moisture and moderate sweetness. The difference between the sugar content of the centre and the margin is very small, with the centre's sweetness ranging from 12 to 14 degrees, while the margin's sugar is 9 to 10 degrees, and the gnawing of the melon is still sweet。
Moreover, the small size of the watermelon has adapted to our current family structure, with three or four people eating a little watermelon at a time, just fine。
Today, our watermelon breeding has moved from production to quality to functional。
Secondly, the place of production is the key to good growth。
The watermelon is hot, for example, and is particularly suitable for its growth. Here, the guacamole is very thin, the fruit and meat are red, the melon seeds are small and sweeter. Every april, they can be listed first and are popular with consumers throughout the country。
In addition, higher temperatures during the day and night can increase the accumulation of sugar and improve the taste of watermelons. In ningxia, the melons along mount waqf are highly sweet, and are known as “spreaded watermelons from stones”, with a special planting environment of up to 18 per cent sugar in its heart。
There is also the chanle smelon in shandong, the east taiguan in jiangsu and the sealord smelon in shanxi, which are the best-quality melons to be nourished by good nature。
The good things are in the right areas, and they need to be accompanied by appropriate planting techniques. For example, small watermelons, represented by l600, move their homes to sheds where they are grown “on a straight footing” through ropes, and receive even light on each side. That's the way to grow out of thin melons, high sweetness。
The quality of watermelons is further ensured by standardized and modern planting techniques such as bees pollination, yellow-blue insecticidal, integrated water fertilizer irrigation。
Newer watermelon varieties, adapted farming environments and modern farming techniques have greatly improved the quality of watermelons。
So what are we talking about when we say that watermelons aren't good when they're little
It's home from school, where the mother laughs and screechs from cold well water
It's also the mouth of manicitis, heat waves and fat watermelon caught in the back seat of a father's bicycle。
These clips, along with the taste of watermelons, constitute irreplaceable memories。
Since then, maybe we've had as much good watermelon as we've ever tasted。
A guide to "the eaters"
How do you pick the dream man on the summer of inflammation
There are many techniques on the internet, such as the skin colour of the melon, the touch of the melon, the weight of the melon, etc。
It's still more practical to use a finger. Putting watermelon in the hand, with a light blow with its finger, with a “through and through” sound and with a tremors of the palms below indicates a better maturity
In the case of the sound of “things”, it is familiar; in the case of the sound, it is deviant。
You can pick out a good melon in three seconds。
