Recently, many fans sent me private messages, asking if the Huoshan Yellow Bud in my hometown is on the market, I said look at my IP address, I know that it has not been listed, I was already in my hometown at this time last year, and the early varieties of tea have begun to be picked at this time last year, but why didn't I go back this year?
Early varieties of tea trees
I am relatively sensitive to tea, especially like to observe some details of tea trees, in recent years I have told a lot of tea farmers who sell tea green, I said have you noticed, in recent years, the color of the early varieties of tea has changed, at the beginning of the early varieties of tea buds out of the color of emerald green, in recent years gradually turned into yellow-green, and our local varieties of tea color is very close.

Secondly, there is also a very significant feature is that in the first few years, the early varieties of tea trees were significantly earlier than the local group species, but in recent years, we have found that the advantages of this morning market are becoming less and less obvious, and last year I found that some local groups were listed earlier than the early varieties. At that time, I told a lot of people who grow tea, and I said that the early varieties may have degraded in us.

Why does this phenomenon occur? The fundamental reason is that one side of the water and soil raises the other side of the people, and oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges.
The climatic conditions and soil of a place are the most important factors affecting the growth of tea trees, some time ago, some netizens asked me, what is the germination agent? I said that it is a kind of foliar fertilizer, this foliar fertilizer can promote the germination of tea trees, and after germination, it can reach the standard of picking in a week, why am I so clear? Because more than ten years ago, I heard that someone in our hometown did experiments, and found that it did not work at all, what is the reason? It is determined by the special climatic conditions of our Dabie Mountains.
Tea plants are planted in groups
Throughout March, it was very cold in the mountains in the morning and evening, and even snow fell at higher altitudes some time ago. In April, when we start picking a lot of green tea, there is even frost in the morning. In such climatic conditions, even if you spray foliar fertilizer, it will hardly work, so our hometown has never seen this so-called green bud agent sprayed on tea trees before the tea season.
Including the early varieties of tea trees on the market is getting later and later, the color of early varieties of tea is more and more inclined to local varieties, the most fundamental reason is that the climate conditions and soil are determined. Yellow-green tea has a slightly lower chlorophyll content, more polyphenols, and a relatively low protein content, which is the result of a combination of soil composition and climatic conditions.
This year, the advantage of early varieties of tea trees is even less obvious, because this time last year has been mined, this year, according to our hometown tea farmers, it is expected that there will be four or five days at the earliest, that is, a day or two around April 1 There may be a small amount of picking, and at this time, a small number of local varieties of tea trees can basically reach the standard of picking.
Today, the early varieties of tea planted in many places are actually the same, for example, this variety called "Shuchazao" in many places in our Anhui region is very similar to Wuniuzao, but it is also planted in Anhui, Huangshan area, Lu'an area, and Anqing area The time of listing is not the same, which just proves that the most important factors affecting the growth of tea trees are climate and soil.
