Chapter 174 Nursery, Nutrition Group
A python-patterned honeydew melon, eating at one time, actually improves the physical fitness and is wasted a lot, which is equivalent to spending 2,000 raw stones, and it is a collective luxury.
Leave 54 seeds smaller than pine nuts.
The big head commanded the worker ants to collect them and dry them.
The banner cloth was the main point and distributed it to 10 pieces of cattails, big heads and red rice, and the remaining 24 pieces belonged to Baizhu.
Only 300 raw stones of white bamboo are deducted, and it still has 600 raw stones to control. Banbu's plan is to allow it to evolve twice as soon as possible to catch up with the growth rate of the other five bamboo rat warriors.
...
As the rainy season passes, there is a new farm work in the territory that needs to be busy - sow bamboo seeds.
During the dry season last year, many bamboo species were harvested through drought stimulation.
In the plan of Banbu, it is necessary to sow colorful bitter bamboo, colorful red bamboo, cloud-silk gold bamboo, golden thread bamboo, spot bamboo, and li bamboo on a large scale. These bamboo species are the key experimental research objects for the next few years.
It is also necessary to sow hybrids of colorful bitter bamboo and colorful red bamboo on a small scale, and hybrids of golden thread bamboo and cloud thread gold bamboo. The purpose of sowing hybrids is to observe the hybrid effect.
Banbu accidentally searched for a "soil" method for cultivating plant seedlings from human inheritance memory.
Very rustic.
A square and long flat land was specially developed as a breeding nursery.
Use slag, slurry water, clay and humus to create nutrient soil.
The front paws of the bamboo rat warrior are slightly flexible, and the mixed nutrient soil is kneaded into mud balls with a diameter of about 5 cm, called "Nutrition Ball".
Put a bamboo seed in each nutritional group and place it neatly on the breeding nursery.
The number of bamboo seeds that need to be sown exceeds 10,000, which has a large project volume and requires joint efforts.
Banbu and Daxiong are responsible for opening nurseries, digging soil, transporting and mixing nutrient soil.
The seven bamboo rat warriors are led by the Rat King and are specifically responsible for the nutrition group. After the preparation, they are placed neatly in the nursery.
The big head commanded the worker ants and put the seeds into the nutrition group.
Finally, a layer of floating soil is sprinkled on the strip.
This breeding method has three benefits:
Improve seed germination rate and seedling survival rate.
After germination, after about half a month, the quality of the seedlings can be distinguished through the growth of the seedlings, and the elimination of those particularly poorly grown seedlings is a more secure way to select seeds.
Young plants grow on nutrient groups, which is very convenient to move and will not harm the plants, making it easy to control the row spacing of plants.
Compared with direct landfill seed sowing, this is a more refined cultivation technique.

In the thick spring, ordinary cockroaches in the territory gradually became active and began to reproduce in large quantities.
According to last year's method, Banbu protected male cockroaches as much as possible and expelled a large number of female cockroaches. In the end, only about 100,000 were left to maintain the proportion of male and female cockroaches in the territory.
Due to the large number of Li Zhufeng warriors, the breath released scares away all kinds of birds, snakes and rats, and ordinary cockroaches are all over the mountains and fields, thriving freely.
Banbu even considered asking the big head to command the soldier ants to remove a group of ordinary female cockroaches. Later, he thought about it and felt too cruel, so he gave up and let them fend for themselves, focusing on taking good care of the little cockroaches in their territory.
In the new year, the first batch of egg sheaths were hatched one after another. Banbu spent time and careful observation to compare with the juvenile cockroaches hatched in the Fengling territory at the foot of the mountain: the juvenile cockroaches born in their own territory have a slightly strong physique and a larger proportion of males.
Knowledge is power. Banbu is very confident and a little proud.
However, within a few days, problems followed one after another, and the newly born juvenile male cockroaches tried every means to escape from their territory.
Banbu tried to separate them and feed them alone every day, but it still didn't work. He would run out if he was not careful.
After repeated thinking, Banbu roughly speculated that it was because the number of male cockroaches in his territory was saturated and the nature of the new male cockroaches migrated to other places.
After several experiments, this situation cannot be changed, so I simply let it go: they cannot escape from the Li Zhufeng range anyway.
...
The two fast-growing species of tree life, both white jade mulberry and rayon fruit, have a height of more than 1 meter.
The white jade mulberry ears are ears, three flower ears, and small white flowers bloom. This summer, the striped cloth can harvest some delicious mulberry fruits.
The Yingri Fruit Tree also has 16 small bulges, which are its flowers, which are very hidden. You should be able to harvest 16 Yingri Fruits this summer.
The output of white jade mulberry and rayon fruit, including the Xuncao species and various bamboo species, mainly supplies big-headed and six-headed small bamboo rat warriors. The growth and development of various common-life plants year by year can offset part of the expenses.
Nowadays, Banbu, Big Bear, and King Rat, mainly rely on the fruits condensed by the seeds given by God, in order to grow rapidly.
To support foreign races, they can help do a lot of things and help the territory develop and prosper, but in total, the monthly expenditure is also a considerable amount.
...
Late at night, the call of spiritual power came from the foot of the mountain:
"Master Banbu Mountain, we are the Yuzhu caravan. Can you go up the mountain?"
At the end of the spring, the Yuzhu caravan arrived late.
"Yes, please!"
Following the Jinping Mountains and coming from the southeast, Banbu guessed at a glance that the guy first went to the Yangti Mountains, then took a detour and entered the Jinping Mountains through the Shurong Mountains.
After a long time, I came late.
Banbu shook his wings down the mountain to welcome the caravan.
Yuzhu is still a senior L9 soldier, and she still brings the two young followers named "Poria" and "Qingzi".
On the back, there was also very little cargo carrying, a typical poor small caravan.
The insects are poor and the ambitions are endless. On the contrary, this guy named Yuzhu is very ambitious. He takes a long detour to the Sheepshoe Mountains, and must have wanted to get a batch of big yellow banyans to purchase.
"Banbu, the yield of the seeds given by the Blood Thorn God must be very good last year, right?" Yuzhu was also proficient in the hypocrisy of business, and this was a question that he knew the truth.
As early as the Sheepshoe Mountains, I had clearly found out the specific yield of the blood spinous fruit last year, and even the number of blood spinous leaves for it by the banner cloth and the price to be sold, etc.
"Not bad! There will definitely be more this year." Banbu greeted enthusiastically: "Yuzhu, go, go up the mountain first, and you can taste the quality of the blood thorn."
Yuzhu said: "Banbu, you asked me to bring a little Red Cockish soldier over last year. I lived up to expectations and carefully selected them. I spent a lot of effort to find a soldier who is particularly suitable for Li Zhufeng."
Looking forward? Not only did Yuzhu, Banbu almost forgot this.
"Yuzhu, you're worried." Banbu asked, "It's especially suitable for Li Zhufeng? What do you say?"
Yuzhu said: "It is called tuzhu, it likes bamboo! And its life species are all preserved intact! The only flaw is... it is a bit naughty, you educate yourself well."
"Like bamboo? It's rare!" Banbu was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "It's better to be naughty and lively, so he can get along well with other soldiers on the mountain."
“I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult.”
The little flaming spider soldier named Fuling suddenly said, climbed onto the back of Yuzhu quickly, picked a large bamboo tube, and pulled out the blocked hay.
A little red cockroach soldier climbed out quickly, stood on the bamboo tube, turned his body, shook his tentacles, looked around, then locked in Banbu and saw the towering peaks in front of him.
"Wow! So many bamboos!" The little soldier named Tuzhu exclaimed repeatedly.
"Fu Ling, is this what you are talking about Li Zhufeng?"
Before Fuling answered, Tuzhu asked Banbu again: "Wow, what a black cockroach warrior! Are you Banbu?"
Banbu's tentacles twitched and replied, "That's right, my name is Banbu, welcome to Lizhu Peak."
Duzhu turned his head and saw the purple bamboo planted at the foot of the mountain, and continued to exclaim: "Wow! That's purple bamboo?"
Banbu was in a better mood and replied happily: "Yes, purple bamboo, a very rare and rare bamboo species."
"It's so beautiful!" Baizhu flapped her wings and flew towards Zizhu. While flying, she asked, "Can I go over and take a look?"
"..." Banbu replied, "Look."
