How to store garlic? Master these five methods for easy preservation
1. Hanging storage method. When harvesting garlic, strictly select the garlic intended for hanging storage, removing heads that are too small, have rotten stems and leaves, are damaged, or have been exposed to moisture. Then spread them on the ground to dry until the stems and leaves become soft and yellow, and the outer skin of the garlic is dry. Finally, select 50 to 100 garlic heads of uniform size and braid them, hanging them under a cool, ventilated, rain-sheltered eaves to air-dry and store. 2. Pile storage method. After harvesting garlic, remove scattered cloves, insect-damaged, moldy, and injured heads, tie them into bundles of 50 to 100 heads, and

How to keep fish fresh? These five methods are very practical
Fish is usually kept fresh in the refrigerator, but this often changes its original flavor. To solve this problem, there are five methods: 1. Perilla leaf preservation: wrap the fish in perilla leaves and place it in a cool place; this can extend the fish's freshness, but it should not exceed 24 hours. 2. Wet grass preservation: soak rice straw or other weeds thoroughly in water, place the live fish in the middle, sprinkle water once every 4 hours, and cover the fish's eyes; the fish can live for 12 hours. 3. Wine drop preservation: drop a few drops of high-proof liquor into the fish's gills or on both cheeks to make the fish drunk and fall over, then place it in a ventilated

How can the efficacy of fishery drugs be improved? These five methods must be mastered
Improve the binder The binder must be highly sticky, otherwise the drug is easily lost in the water. Standard wheat flour is a good binder material. For swallowing fish, it is best to make pelleted medicated bait or ball-shaped medicated bait for feeding. Add a feeding attractant Fish have a keen sense of smell; even if 1 gram of alanine is dissolved in 1 million liters of water, fish can still detect it. For example, if strongly aromatic Chinese herbal medicines such as star anise and Angelica dahurica are ground into fine powder as a feeding attractant, and mixed into fishery drugs at a ratio of 10%-20%, or added to roasted soybean powder, wheat flour, etc., all have obvious attractant

How to keep oyster mushrooms fresh? Introduction to five common preservation methods
Fresh storage: Fresh oyster mushrooms picked after harvest are difficult to sell in the short term due to market influences, so the fresh storage method can be used. The storage time of fresh oyster mushrooms at room temperature is greatly affected by temperature and air humidity. When the room temperature is 3°C to 5°C and the relative air humidity is around 80%, fresh mushrooms can be stored for one week. When the quantity of mushrooms is small, the oyster mushrooms can be placed in a jar containing a small amount of cold water and the jar mouth sealed tightly; even if the temperature reaches 15°C to 16°C, they can be stored for about one week. The oyster mushrooms can also be completely immersed in cold water, but the water must be clean and hygienic, and the iron content of the water should be less than 2 milligrams per liter

How Should Garlic Be Stored? Five New Methods to Teach You
There are many methods for storing garlic. Depending on the storage purpose and conditions, methods such as hanging storage, heap storage, burial storage, radiation storage, and chemical treatment storage can be used. They are specifically introduced as follows. 1. Hanging storage method: When harvesting garlic, the garlic intended for hanging storage should be strictly selected, removing those heads that are too small, have rotten stems and leaves, are damaged, or have been affected by moisture. Then spread them on the ground to dry in the sun until the stems and leaves become soft and yellow, and the outer skin of the garlic is dry. Finally, select 50 to 100 garlic heads of uniform size, braid them, and hang them under a cool, ventilated, rain-sheltered eave so they are air-dried and stored.

How to kill scarab beetles? Five effective control methods
The larvae of scarab beetles, commonly known as chicken-manure grubs, gnaw at the roots of seedlings. Besides biting through lateral roots and the main root, they can also strip and devour the root bark completely, causing missing seedlings and broken rows, and in severe cases even disastrous damage. Adult scarab beetles feed on both leaves and flowers, and they reproduce extremely quickly, so they can easily harm seedlings. They are a common major pest in forestry. The period when adults cause rampant damage is roughly from June to October, and this is the best time for control: it both controls the damage caused by adults and keeps the next generation's population density in check, yielding twice the result with half the effort.

How can the efficacy of fishery drugs be improved? Master these five methods
Improve the binder The binder must be highly sticky, otherwise the drug will easily disperse and be lost in the water. Standard wheat flour is a relatively good binder material. For swallowing fish, it is best to make pelleted medicated bait or ball-shaped medicated bait for feeding. Add a feeding attractant Fish have a keen sense of smell; even if 1 gram of alanine is dissolved in 1 million liters of water, fish can still detect it. For example, if strongly aromatic Chinese herbal medicines such as star anise and Angelica dahurica are ground into fine powder to make a feeding attractant, and mixed into fishery drugs at a ratio of 10%-20%, or added to roasted soybean powder, wheat flour, etc., all have obvious feeding-attractant effects

What to Do About Embryo Resorption in Sows? Five Prevention and Treatment Methods to Help You Solve It
In pig farming, a low farrowing rate in sows is a common problem. Besides a low fertilization rate, early embryonic death during development followed by resorption by the sow (commonly known as embryo resorption) is also an important cause. This difficult problem can be solved through the following methods. 1. Strengthen the feeding and management of open sows: 3 to 14 days before mating, increase protein feed and energy feed, and add minerals and vitamins at the same time, so that they enter the optimal mating state more quickly; for open sows in poorer body condition, a longer period before mating

Five practical methods to protect wheat seedlings from freezing and cold
When the severe winter comes, doing a good job of protecting overwintering crops such as wheat from the winter cold and taking preventive measures is an important guarantee for obtaining a bumper harvest. According to different field plots, the following five methods can be used to prevent freezing and protect seedlings. First, spreading grass to protect seedlings. Some varieties with strong spring habit are sown relatively late, emerge sparsely, and have fewer tillers. For such field plots, cover them with crop straw such as wheat straw and rice straw to keep them warm, promote tiller growth, prevent freezing and strengthen seedlings, so that the wheat seedlings can safely overwinter. Second, applying fertilizer and water to the roots. For field plots where wheat seedlings have shallow roots and few tillers

How to reduce contamination in edible mushroom inoculation? Five practical methods to help you solve it
Autumn and winter are the golden seasons for producing edible mushrooms, but every year, inoculation contamination causes economic losses of around 20% for mushroom growers. Using the following 5 methods can reduce the inoculation contamination rate. 1. Bottled fermented material: Fill fermented material 1 to 2 cm deep above the culture medium at 4 cm from the bottle mouth, then sterilize. Its advantages are that contaminating bacteria are less likely to infect the culture medium, and the spawn age is consistent. 2. Wheat grain germination method: Let wheat grains germinate before bottling and sterilizing. That is, let the wheat grains used for spawn germinate all at once, with sprouts 1 to 2 times the length of the wheat grains, then fully sun-dry and store. One day before making the spawn, soak the wheat grains for 12 hours and directly bottle and sterilize. Its advantages are that the process of boiling the wheat grains is omitted, mycelium grows quickly, and there are fewer contaminating bacteria. The contamination rate is 2% to 3%.
