Stem and leaf cuttings were harvested for shipment of new asparagus!

Hello.
The other day, we were blessed with beautiful weather.
Stem and leaf cuttings in the 1st and 2nd greenhouses were conducted!

Looking back at last year's work,
This year.
It also means one house and more houses,
In a way that can increase work efficiency.
The mowing will be carried out.

First,
the Agricultural Technology Center of the prefecture.
This year's version of how to harvest stover.
He gave us a lecture.

After listening to the explanation, we started reaping!
First,

First Farm a.k.a. From Giraffe House

before

after

It's quite refreshing!
And a lot of stem leaves!

This is the second year for this house.
At the end of last spring's harvest,
*Rising stem work.

*Select a standing stem = parent stem.
Let the standing stems grow bigger and bigger.
Throughout the summer, nutrients are stored in the roots through photosynthesis from the leaves.

For that reason,
Some seedlings were thinned out last year,
The work is done as you instructed.
It went well 🙌.

However,

The second farm, commonly known as Zo House, is...

The situation was different💦.

before

It's so big and overgrown that you can't see the ceiling💦.

This is the first year for this house.
It seems to be in a good location.
I can't even see the other side.
It is growing rapidly.

I'm sure,
Leaves that have grown large,
Plenty of photosynthesis during the summer,
There should be plenty of nutrients stored in the rootstock✨.
I am looking forward to the new asparagus in the spring☺.

Lunch time for fun

Before taking on the strongman's second farm (a.k.a. the elephant house),
First, we need to eat!
Surrounded by all the members of the group
With tea, snacks and lunch.
We took a well-deserved break!

During the break,
From the lemon grove at Farm No. 3
I got a lemon!

It's been a long time since the group has met.
I like your outfit, the color is so bright."
In that case, I'm not going to cook it.
I'm not sure I want to talk about it, but...

Start of the second half of the season!

First,
Remove the irrigation hose that runs through the house.

Afterwards,
Mow as before!

When the sun's rays tilt to the west,
The work was scheduled to take four days.
I managed to get two houses in one day.
Stem and leaf clippings have been completed!
