If it is not deep vegetable cultivation, seeing the comments of netizens, she would prefer to buy sprayed vegetables rather than see bugs. Well!
It will also be understood that pesticide spraying is not entirely a problem of producers, but partly caused by the "expectations" of some consumers. There is also a part to reduce economic losses, etc. People who can think this way may not know that pesticides can remain in the ecology for a long, long time, nor do they know what damage to her body and offspring is, as early as 2022, in "Surfboard Company" learned that "some pesticides greatly increase people's risk of cancer and lead to reduced reproductive capacity, and some of these pesticides take decades to completely disappear from the ecosystem." Not only this book, but Silent Spring also mentions that the dangers of pesticides are long-lasting and far-reaching.
When I saw this sentence, I remembered the children I saw when I went to the local special school before, and the little girl I met who was bullied by boys but couldn't speak. After all, eating foods that lack certain bacteria can lead to a lack of essential vitamins, such as vitamin B12, which is important for brain function. And some of these children can be recovered by conditioning, such as some children with ADHD, real Chinese medicine can be cured by regulating the spleen and stomach! Instead of taking Western medicine for many years is useless!
Back to hollow vegetables, consumers want to buy "perfect" look of food, the taste is tender and sweet, etc., and these are the favorite of insects, those who have grown vegetables know, today I want to talk about the summer season and almost out of season vegetables hollow vegetables. Hollow vegetables are most tender when they first come out, and they get harder the further you go.

I started gradually not buying anymore. Because the hollow vegetables under the heat are too hot, the poles are basically hard states, and the hollow vegetables are out of season from the beginning of June of the lunar calendar, and the hollow vegetables from the cuttings on the balcony can eat young leaves, but pests have been found, such as a small number of red spiders, you can see if you can eat until a few months or whether you can raise flowers and seeds.

The above is the season in May, although the hollow vegetables bought have large leaves, the green leaves are medium, not shallow or deep, there are almost no wormholes, more tender, but the vitality is not strong enough, and the stems do not grow too many root systems. This hollow vegetable is said to have been grown by mountain people and tied with straw. No preservative, because after a period of time slowly shrinking, you can also see one or two yellow leaves, instead of keeping it as it is, I have bought bagged hollow vegetables to know, it is still green food, the leaves are super large, the hollow stem can have finger thickness, I judge that it should be a hydroponic dish raised by nutrients.
When food is grown only to make money, and not to consider people's health as the starting point, it will go astray.
Deep vegetable planting will understand, some vegetables that need a lot of water, after dehydration is like this. Hollow vegetables planted only with soil are more likely to have all kinds of bugs, densely packed especially now in summer high temperature, planted in soil and water, such as in gutters, depending on the water quality. It is also necessary to consider the overall microclimate of the environment, the temperature is not absolute.
In high temperatures, such as now in July, it will be yellow leaves, because it is almost out of season, and it is out of season for those who like to eat tender. Wormholes are indispensable, the poles are much harder, and you can see the "scars" that have been gnawed by insects. Another possibility of yellow leaves is that hollow cabbage needs more nutrients such as carbon to bloom and set seeds, and the fallen yellow leaves can become the most natural fertilizer.

The incision is not rotten and bad, if you use the hollow vegetable hydroponics you bought, you know that the internal structure of the pole is not solid enough, it is easier to rot and soften, and the large-leaf hollow vegetables that do not keep fresh are more likely to be dehydrated, and the leaves are dark green, then there is too much nitrogen fertilizer, and eating more is not friendly to the body.
In the high temperature, the leaves are natural, and when I go to buy vegetables on the weekend, I see Aunt Wu, a small farmer, cleaning up the leaves of hollow vegetables on the spot. The hollow vegetables she sells have also been hard since last month, as have okra, and the larger ones are basically woody and have a very hard taste.

This is planted by my aunt without pesticides, I arrived home last weekend, so I put it indoors without putting the refrigerator, poured out the water of the previous day every day to water the vegetables, sorted out the leaves, and then sprinkled water to make the basin have some water, just like flower arranging, but there is no need to prune the bottom. This large pot of hard-stalk hollow vegetables can be eaten for several days. Compared to the market-bought leaves, the color is lighter, the leaves are small, and the pole is the natural appearance of hollow vegetables coping with hot days. The size of the leaves depends on the variety, because the hollow vegetables I start with seeds are large leaves. The cuttings grow all small leaves of hollow vegetables.

There are also occasional bugs. What worm, I'm still studying, because it's a bit primitive.

Hollow vegetables are eaten by insects for sure, and then, after being eaten, a substance will be produced to protect themselves, and selling looks is not enough! Kind of resembles the stalk of a bean that I accidentally broke. The last article has a picture, this is the self-healing power of plants found in deep vegetable cultivation! Plants with enough tenacious vitality can defend themselves against foreign enemies. In addition, it is expressed by growing a root system, and it wants to continue to survive.

Just like the sweet potato vines planted deep on my balcony, inserted in the water for hydroponics, strong enough to produce the root system in one day, dense root system in a few days, will not rot and rot without changing the water, and plants with strong enough vitality can do this

And such a hard pole, compared to the very tender stem of the previous month, is more chewy, and it is not the hardest now, and it gets harder and harder the further it goes, because it is necessary to reproduce offspring and bear seeds to avoid being eaten.
It reminds me that perhaps modern teeth are not strong enough, partly because of a lack of exercise and food. For example, the current food is becoming more and more refined, removing some so-called rough, poor taste, hard, preference for soft, tender, sweet and so on. There are also various operations for producers to cater to consumer preferences. The truth is that hard food does not wear out teeth, but accidentally mixes sand.
Pros and cons of pesticide-free slow long hollow vegetables:
1. "Not good-looking", the loss is large, but relatively long, the leaves are yellow, eaten by insects, hardened stems, naturally yellow without black and smelly, (under the right conditions, rich in oxygen-rich living water planting environment. ), growing more slowly.
2. Will bring its own bugs, do not exclude microbial bacteria, there are holes and leaves. But this also comes with good bacteria.
3. It has the taste of hollow vegetables, and you can eat the difference by tasting it carefully and chewing slowly.
4. Stronger vitality, hot days, one day roots.
5. Sustainable vegetable growing, which can be propagated by cuttings and more, is a live food.
And such yellow leaves, just enough to put into earthworm compost, pesticide-free is healthier!

Slow-growing hollow vegetables, even if they have been blistered for a long time, are very natural rot, not the kind of rot that will turn dark like some so-called green foods! It smells like a plant, there is no smell. This is also used gradually, that is
Finally, to test whether a food is good or not, do not add any seasoning or only add a small amount of salt, do not put oil and stir-fry at high temperature, but simmer for a short time (cooked with the moisture that comes with the dish), chew slowly and swallow, taste to see if the taste is right, and then look at the juice.
The kind of hollow vegetable that can cook the juice of green sediment, I bought this situation before, and I felt strange when I looked at it, and I may need to dig deeper. From the details, the taste should be the taste of hollow vegetables (plant flavor) to whether the juice of the dish is abnormal after cooking.
Through comparison, you can know which one is slow, there are no various operations, and you eat healthy food. Your body will know! Such foods contain natural bacteria, which are beneficial to the diversity of the flora in the body.
So, will you buy this pesticide-free food that sells in appearance? (This article just wants to provide a different perspective on what real pesticide-free vegetables are, and why producers spray drugs, not all they want, sometimes consumer preferences are also part of the reason.)
Statement: Do not sell vegetables, do not sell vegetables! My aunt didn't grow vegetables to sell them in order to be pesticide-free. Using fertilizers such as enzyme bean dregs, her dishes are mainly eaten by her own family and sent to relatives and village elders, because my aunt is a devout Buddhist and does not care about doing good deeds, mainly because she can't finish eating. And she's busy, not a full-time vegetable farmer.
