The second solar term of summer marks the beginning of summer, when rainfall increases, temperatures gradually rise, and crops enter the stage of vigorous growth. Small full, small full, wheat grains gradually full. The small full solar term is the small full season when everything is not fully filled, but it is slightly full. Xiaoman, containing the expectation of Yingman, but also with the sweetness of the unripe. The difference between the north and the south in the small full solar term is larger, and the rainfall in the small full season in the south will increase, and there is a saying that "small man, the river is gradually full". The temperature rises rapidly in the northern Xiaoman season, which is the season when you give a little sunshine. Soon it will be the small full solar term, this year's small full solar term is May 20th, as the saying goes, "a year of drought and flood to see the small full", so what is the sign of the rain on this day? Let's take a look.
What is the Little Full Solar Term?
Xiaoman is the second solar term of summer and the eighth of the 24 solar terms. At this time, the weather began to become hot, with less precipitation in the north and more precipitation in the south, which began to manifest itself as hot and dry in the north and hot and humid in the south.
For the small full solar term, there are actually two meanings. One is related to climate precipitation, which means "rain surplus". During the Xiaoman season, the rainfall in the south increases, the precipitation is frequent, and the fields, lakes and rivers are full of water, so the abundance of rain is described as Xiaoman. The other is related to agricultural wheat, there is little or no precipitation in the northern region during the small full season, and the grains of summer crops such as wheat planted at this time begin to be full, about the late stage of milk maturity, but not fully mature, so it is called Xiaoman.
The reason why the climate is different in the north and south during the Xiaoman season is that the warm and humid airflow of the ocean is more active at this time, which meets the cold air from the north and south, resulting in abundant rain in the southern region. In the northern region, the dry and cold air is stronger than the hot and humid, resulting in less rainfall and faster temperature rise.
Therefore, in the small full season, there is a lot of rain in the south, the temperature is gradually rising, the weather is hot, and there is a lot of sweating.
Why is there no full solar term?
Among the 24 solar terms, there are many solar terms that correspond to each other, such as the big cold behind the small cold, the heavy snow behind the light snow, and the big heat behind the small summer in the summer, but there is no big heat after the small full solar term, why is this?
It turns out that after Xiaoman, you can plant rice and harvest wheat one after another. From the perspective of reminding agriculture, the solar term after Xiaoman should focus on the "plantable" of rice, rather than the "big man" of wheat, so the solar term after Xiaoman is called mango seed, also known as "busy planting". In the small full season, the grain will be ripe and unripe, and everything will be in just the right state.
As the saying goes, "a year of drought and flood looks at Xiaoman", what is the sign of rain in Xiaoman?
The meaning of this sentence is that the various weather characteristics of the Xiaoman solar term are related to the subsequent drought and flood. Xiaoman rains, which means that there is more rain in the later period, which is conducive to the growth of crops; Xiaoman does not rain, which means that the earth has less rain and the temperature rises faster in the later period, which is very unfavorable to the growth of crops. What is the sign of rain on this day? In fact, the agricultural proverb has already given the answer.
1. The small is full, and the yellow plum rain is less
This agricultural proverb is mainly popular in some areas of the Yangtze River basin on the mainland, saying that if it does not rain on this day, it means that the warm air in the south is strong, the cold snap in the north is weak, and the temperature will gradually rise, indicating that there is less rain in Huangmei. The Huangmei season is a time when the rain is more concentrated, and if the rainfall becomes less, the weather is dry, which is not good for the growth of crops.
2. Xiaoman is very worried about no rain, and everything is never half harvested; If the autumn equinox rains, it will be difficult to keep the fruit
This agricultural proverb is mainly popular in the Heilongjiang region of the mainland, although it seems very long, but it is easy to understand, which means that if it does not rain in Xiaoman, the harvest of crops will be seriously affected and the yield will decline. If it rains on the autumn equinox, it will be difficult for the crops to ripen when they bear fruit in time, and the yield will not be good.
3. Xiaoman does not rain, and bears the water field dam
This agricultural proverb is popular in the Guangxi region of the mainland, which means that if it does not rain during the small full solar term, then the fields are dry, and you need to carry water to water the fields.
4. The rivers are full if they are small, and the rivers are not satisfied with the drought
This agricultural proverb is spread in the Jiangxi region of the mainland, which means that the precipitation is abundant in the small full season, and the water level of the rivers is relatively high, if the precipitation is less and the water level of the rivers is low, then it means that the weather is dry and rainless, which is not conducive to the growth of crops.
5. The rain is not raining, and the sun is big
This agricultural proverb is spread in Henan, Anhui and other regions in the mainland, which means that if it does not rain during the Xiaoman solar term, then the dog days are very hot, and the weather is less rainy and dry, which is not conducive to the growth of crops.
6. Xiaoman has rainy wheat harvest, and Xiaoman has no rain wheat lost
This agricultural proverb says that if it rains during the small full solar term, the wheat will be harvested, and if it does not rain during the small full solar term, then the weather will be dry and rainy, and the wheat yield will be reduced and the harvest will be poor.
7. Small full rain, grain and rice fat
This agricultural proverb says that if it rains during the small solar term, then the crops in the field will thrive and the crops will be harvested well.
8, Xiaoman is dissatisfied, and Mai is in danger
This agricultural proverb says that if it does not rain and the rivers are not full, it will be very unfavorable to the growth of wheat, and wheat will face the possibility of reducing yield.
These agricultural proverbs are the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients based on the planting experience at that time, and do not necessarily have a scientific basis, but have a certain reference value. Regardless of whether it rains or not, everyone must prepare for irrigation, be alert to the drought, pay attention to the weather forecast in time, and avoid crop reduction. Do you think the saying "a year of drought and flood looks at a small man" makes sense?
