In this article, we will refer to how to plant and care for roses of Ms. Nguyen Hong Nhung (Hanoi), she has found a special way, can take rose cuttings (from rose branches to root). with just a glass of water. As a result, she had a 3m2 balcony covered with brilliant roses that everyone had to almost rub. Illustration. Choose branches First, at the stage of choosing branches, Ms. Nhung said that in order to cut a rose in the country, we must choose the right branch. People should only choose the branches of the cake, which are dark green, about the size of a chopstick, and have flowers. It is imperative to do so to ensure that the rose can flower and not be “deaf”. When cutting branches for cuttings, you should cut about 20cm from the flower. Absolutely do not take young branches because they will not be able to root. Branch handling When we have chosen the desired branch, we cut the bevels at both ends so that the branch is only about 15cm. Note that on the cuttings, there must be about 3-4 eyes for them to take root. Its eyes must be as fat as a grain of rice, but if the eyes are too small, it cannot take root. It is advisable to remove some leaves to reduce the thickness but not to cut them, because the leaves play an important role in the synthesis of substances to create new roots. Use root stimulant Originally, persimmon branches already have hormones, but if soaked in a normal environment, the rose branches are often influenced by the external environment, so the roots have not yet grown and died, so using intensive root stimulants also brings benefits. high efficiency. Another mistake when cutting roses with water is that people use drugs containing a lot of phosphorus, himid acid … These are stimulant drugs for plants with available roots, but with unrooted rose cuttings, it prevent roots from growing. Therefore, Ms. Nhung advises people to only take medicines containing root-forming hormones such as Indole-3-butyric acid or NAA (bought at pharmacies). Use pure water as a cutting medium We should use pure water for cuttings, put in a transparent plastic cup that will be convenient to monitor the rooting rate. You just need to mix 500-700ppm NAA solution into the water. Use a small plastic cup to hold and plug the rose branch directly into it. Spraying after cuttings After 3 days of incubation, the humidity should be reduced to about 90%. So use a tall plastic cup and close the lid. If you used a small cup before, now you can completely combine them into 1 and put them in a large cup. After 5-10 we will spray growth stimulants and foliar fertilizers. 10 days later, spray again. Note, for each cutting, only spray 2 times, if too many roots will die and if too little, the branches cannot take root. This is the result of cutting a rose with water in about half a month Thus, after about 10-20 days, at the latest, persimmons will take root in 30 days. At this point you can bring them to the ground as you like. After 1 month, the persimmon tree will begin to bud and have buds. So 2 months after the start of cuttings, you already have a beautiful, fragrant rose pot in a corner of the balcony.

Waterpipe tobacco is dried full of sugar in Vinh Bao The season of “harvesting” waterpipe tobacco starts from the end of May and lasts until the end of June. It is no longer as bustling as it used to be, but these days, stepping into the barn of “mutual love” in Tien Lang (Hai Phong), Everywhere is filled with the pungent smell of pipe tobacco. Many households give up planting because they work too hard In the middle of the hot summer afternoon of June, Mr. Nguyen Tien Su, in Ly Hoc commune, Vinh Bao district, Hai Phong city is still working hard with his wife and children while trying to make new Thai medicines – morning exposure. The rectangular screens have an area of ​​​​about 2m2, filled with waterpipe tobacco. The pungent smell of pipe tobacco rose in every corner. Pointing to dozens of rolls of waterpipe tobacco lying inside the house, Mr. Su said that after days of planting and caring, it was time to break the medicine and cut it. If there are drugs, they must be incubated and stored carefully in the house. In those days, people had to go out in the yard, in the summer to sleep, to make room to brew pipe tobacco. Each batch of pipe tobacco will be incubated for about 4-6 days. “Waterpipe tobacco can’t be soaked in rain, drying with dew only has time and stages, so when brewing, you have to spend an area in the house for the medicine, people can sleep outside,” said Mr. Su. According to Mr. Su, pipe tobacco is a “specialty” that is grown in many places, but the most delicious is the water pipe grown in Tien Lang, Vinh Bao. This is considered to be the land that produces tobacco to advance to the king. “The land here does not grow rice, but grows waterpipe tobacco. There are many houses growing 1-2 samples of waterpipe tobacco. If cared for well, each pipe tobacco tree also gives 50-70kg, selling at current market prices from 100-200 thousand VND/kg, special types up to 700-800 thousand VND/kg, some types up to both million VND/kg. With a value many times higher than that of growing rice, many households have given up growing waterpipe tobacco because it is too hard, “said Mr. Su. Keeping the “fire” of the profession Ms. Vinh, from the same commune of Ly Hoc, said that compared to the old days, the production of waterpipe tobacco is easier now, thanks to the machine, there is no need to cut by hand. But the stages of pressing the tops, breaking buds, watering, picking leaves, drying dew, drying in the sun, incubating … still have to be as complete and thorough as before. “Growing waterpipe tobacco is 3-4 times more economical than growing rice, one tree of medicine can give 10 million dong. But every day I have to go to the field to press the tops, break the buds, water, pick the leaves, and then spend the whole house on the potion, I go out to the yard to sleep… It’s so hard, so many people quit their jobs,” said Vinh . Mr. Su added, after hard care for about 4-5 months, it is time to harvest waterpipe tobacco. Waterpipe tobacco, after being broken, will be pulled out and rolled up. The healthy leaves are used to make clothes, and the torn leaves are used to make intestines. The roll of pipe tobacco is 2-2.5m long, about 20cm in diameter. After rolling up, is to arrange the waterpipe tobacco close to each other and keep it indoors or on a cool shelf to incubate for 4-6 days, until the tobacco leaves from the inside to the outside are golden, then proceed to cut the medicine. “Each roll of medicine must be the same length and size before it can be put on the slicer. That’s why people who make waterpipe tobacco must be very careful in rolling up the tobacco, arranging the leaves so that they do not break. It takes 45-60 minutes for each roll to manually cut medicine, now it takes only 5-10 minutes to finish one roll,” said Mr. Su. After cutting, the pipe tobacco will be shaken evenly, then dried. Waterpipe tobacco is dried on the screen, on the floor must be evenly hand, to avoid lumps, it will not dry evenly, leading to bad smell or damage. If it rains, it is not possible to dry the medicine, it must be dried, using dry straw to smoke at the bottom until the fiber dries. When the batches of waterpipe tobacco are completed, cover with blankets and nylon to keep the heat for the tobacco to dry evenly and the next day in the sun, continue to dry until it is dry and golden. “The burning will make the color of the pipe tobacco not as yellow as the sun, but it will increase the smell of smoke, making the pipe tobacco more delicious, richer and more sought after by buyers,” said Mr. Su. Ms. Vinh still remembers, more than a decade ago, every time during the tobacco season, the families exchanged labors to harvest the medicine. At the end of a working day, families will gather to have dinner with a “fun like a festival” atmosphere. Waterpipe smoke will spread in the afternoon that evening, men and even women can smoke, older women will pick up pipe tobacco, place it in betel leaves, and eat areca pieces to make them more spicy and warm. hot. “Today, wage jobs are paid, the exchange of jobs and shared meals are no longer available, so the scene of men sitting and smoking by the cup of tea at the end of the day, and women eating betel leaves and adding medicinal fibers. But every season when the water pipe comes back, I still feel happy because the cultivation of waterpipe tobacco in recent years has been stable, the medicine has a good price, and people’s lives are getting better and better,” said Mr. Su. The “capital” of medicinal plants in both area and quality belongs to Kien Thiet commune (Tien Lang district) and Ly Hoc commune (Vinh Bao district). These two communes are adjacent to each other, separated by the Han River. According to data from Hai Phong Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the two districts have nearly 2,500 hectares of waterpipe tobacco, with a total output of 3,264.6 tons in 2020. The productivity of waterpipe tobacco reaches 1.6 tons/ha, many households earn 500-600 million VND/year from waterpipe tobacco.

Hops are an indispensable ingredient in beer production – a wonderful drink that is loved by every country. However, few people know that hops are also used to eat with the most expensive prices in the world. The hops, scientifically known as humulus lupulus, are shaped like the tops of asparagus and are only for the rich to enjoy. In the past, when the beer industry was new, young shoots that did not bloom into flowers were considered waste. Over time, what used to be discarded has become the most expensive vegetable in the world with a price of more than 1,000 USD/kg. The reason why the price of hops shoots is so high is because of the scarcity of this plant. Hops sprout only once in the spring, between March and April. Moreover, the life time of hops shoots is not long. Just a short time after the hops sprout, the hops will quickly perish if not harvested. The expensiveness of hops buds also comes from the sophisticated harvesting process. Hops do not grow in rows, so harvesting must be done entirely by hand. The harvester must carefully find the buds growing in the foliage. They are so small that it takes thousands of hops to fill a bag Garden owners also have to depend on the weather to have a reasonable harvest schedule within 14 days of hops sprouting. They are quite picky about habitat, so they are usually grown only in England and Belgium. Having a shape and taste similar to asparagus when eaten raw, some people think that the hops buds, if eaten raw, are quite bitter, tasting like green beans, but when cooked, it has a very distinct flavor. After being harvested, most of the hops are used by luxury restaurants to cater to privileged diners. Hops shoots can be used for salads, noodles or baked… according to the preferences of the buyer. Sautéing garlic is also an option that many people who have eaten hops appreciate. For many chefs around the world, hops are considered a great ingredient to prepare the unique dishes that make them famous. Please watch the video: The strangest shaped trees in the world.

Not delicious, sloppy eating but really, sometimes when I’m not around the office during lunch time, I still remember that industrial spring roll strangely. It’s not that eating a lot becomes a habit, but perhaps because of that spring rolls, it reminds a lot of memories. During the days in Hanoi, also without this snack, a delicious banh gio is really the “splendid paradise” of the stomach. Especially on winter afternoons, when it’s a bit drizzly, let a hot piece of spring roll melt in your mouth. Away from Hanoi for more than 20 years, I don’t know if the “guerrilla” banh mi shop at the corner of Tran Xuan Soan – Ngo Thi Nham intersection, near Hom market, is still for sale or not. Once upon a time, it was our snack mecca, literally. In the afternoon, despite the hustle and bustle of people, we young people stopped by, kicked the car against the car, “pleased her for a cake” and sat down on a small wooden chair and sipped. Hot, fragrant cake, add a little spicy chili sauce, enough to dispel the cold of the drizzle. If the day is “sizzling”, add a piece of cinnamon rolls, it’s really delicious, not only at the level of “warm hearts of soldiers” anymore. By the time he entered the south to set up a business, at first, many times when he wanted to eat spring rolls, he was exhausted. But it’s hard to find a banh gio in the right style of Hom market. Then also discovered that Minh Chau spring rolls house sells delicious spring rolls, North standard. But unfortunately, in Minh Chau, only a few minutes in the morning, the spring rolls are gone. Later in the afternoon, they also sell but they sell out soon. Buying spring rolls there often turns out to be a miracle. Eating a piece of fragrant, soft, greasy, rich spring rolls, I suddenly remembered my childhood. Opposite the house, there are Mr and Mrs. Chi who specialize in selling spring rolls. Their son was the same age as us, loved like a thin egg. We still tease him: “Everybody in your family is muscular when sitting. When you stand up, your thighs are like toothpicks”. The reason there is such a joke is also because of the sight of them sitting and pounding their legs with their hands all day. Two hands swinging the pestle continuously. Working like that, biceps are not billowing. But sitting in one place forever, hands are sometimes bigger than legs. Referring to the profession of spring rolls, when it comes to banh gio, we must admit that our ancestors calculated real talent. Their basis is enough to be the standard and most basic lesson of those who do business and production in any era, any business model. The tiny spring rolls, held in the palm of the other hand, turned out to have a great meaning. It is full use. It is a product that brings added value in the whole production cycle of the people who make spring rolls. Remember the story about a teacher who filled a glass jar with gravel and asked his students, “Is the jar full?”. When the student replied “It’s closed”, the teacher poured sand into the jar again. Continue, after the sand is water. That story we certainly heard boring ears. But in this “spring roll lesson”, it’s not boring at all. The house making spring rolls will definitely use the ingredients of meat and leaves to wrap the cake. A pound of pork has a fairly large volume, with its diameter also having to be about 10cm and the length of the cylinder also having to be 20 to 25cm. So many pounds of ham put into the cooking pot, is it like a big bunch of pebbles put into a glass jar? Then in the process of wrapping the sausage, there will certainly be leftover leaves, shredded leaves, and shredded meat. And so those leftovers are used to make small, pretty spring rolls, as if sand is added in a glass jar. Then, besides banh gio, there is also a bun. The cake is also small and pretty like that, also using leftovers and scraps like that. Those superfluous, petty things can actually be sold. But surely, it will only bring the cheap value of a mere waste product. However, when combined together in the shape of a spring roll, it is placed in a new position, as solemn as the hot, fragrant pork rolls. It is in place of another product line, sold at a very different price. His father is really talented. The ingenuity of starting from good eating is full, well shuffling is warm has become a basic and acumen custom of business people. And in fact, except for industrial spring rolls production facilities, there is no heirloom sausage house that does not sell additional by-products such as spring rolls, pancakes… at all. It can be said that if they are rich by doing that job, it is not the sausage that gives them that wealth, but rather the traditional tradition that has been brought back from generation to generation. How many people peeled away a plate of spring rolls for breakfast, lunch and thought about the way that cake came out of the oven to relate to the work they are doing? It’s like the story of a young tailor I know. She never throws away the rags. But she uses it to sew beautiful doll dresses, make small key chains and sell them online. And I myself was very surprised when I heard her say “That dress you sewed for that woman, the salary is four hundred thousand. But the rags of that dress were thrown away, I made 1 doll shirt and 2 keychain. In total, I sold millions of two.” One million two versus four hundred thousand. And most importantly, that million and two come from what is considered waste. But I always believe, that girl will succeed. Not because of sewing but because of the very scientific calculation that she has. Doing business requires studying and the learning pool is huge. We will easily be eager for the new, with the modernity of the world out there, but let’s not ignore the old lessons that our forefathers have learned. Just like that spring rolls, it has opened up an extremely interesting process. It is a process of experience and not only the experience of a particular person but of many lives. That experience is as precious as any other knowledge out there, and most importantly, it’s not written into a textbook or textbook. It only opens to those who are contemplative, like to enjoy a snack with the discovery of the stories behind that no one has ever told.

Documentary image of the mutiny “Munity on the Bounty”. Touching Legend Sake has the English name breadfruit, or bread fruit, because after being cooked, this fruit has a surface like a loaf of toast while the smell and taste is like a potato. The mulberry tree is a flowering, woody plant in the mulberry family. Sake is grown for fruit, with a very high yield, each tree can yield from 150 to 200 fruits per crop. Sake fruit can be processed into many delicious dishes and is loved by many people. In it, the people of the French Polynesian island still tell the legend of the famine that occurred on the island of Raiatea. The story goes that, once upon a time, a family of six, in a desperate search for food, had to eat wild ferns in the valley around the cave where they lived. Unable to see his loved ones starving, the husband told his wife that he would bury himself outside the cave and transform into a flowering tree to feed his children. One morning, the wife woke up and her husband was nowhere to be found. She knows what happened. After looking around, the wife discovered near their place a tree that grew very fast, its branches laden with sake. Hawaiian mythology also circulates a similar story about the origin of the sake plant. Accordingly, sake is derived from the sacrifice of the war god Ku. After deciding to live in seclusion from the common people as a farmer, Ku married and had children. His family lived happily until a famine hit their island. When he could not see his children suffering forever, Ku told his wife that he could free his children from poverty, but to do this he had to leave them. His wife reluctantly agreed and after she agreed, Ku was sunk into the ground where he was standing until only the top of his head could be seen. His family waited around the place where he had stood day and night, crying and drenching the ground until suddenly a small tree bud appeared in the very spot where Ku had stood. Very quickly, this small bud grew into a tall, leafy tree and fruit. The Ku family and their neighbors ate deliciously, helping them escape starvation. This plant is the sake tree. The fruit of the sake in Africa. Today, this place is called Mahina but many locals still call it Tua-uru (meaning sake valley). Currently, the sake fruit, also known as the uru fruit as the locals call it, is an important part of the people’s diet and their culture. On the island of Polynesia, wherever you go, you will see tall trees with waxy leaves, sometimes heavy with fruit, each the size of a ball or maybe larger. Sake fruits are used to decorate roadsides and houses. In the market stalls, round and rectangular Sake fruits are lined up next to coconuts, bananas, soursop and passion fruit. On the more than 100 islands that make up the archipelago of French Polynesia, sake is a staple food. The name of this fruit comes from the fact that when it is ripe, this fruit contains a lot of pulp, if cooked, it will smell like freshly baked bread. The riper the Sake fruit, the sweeter it is and can be processed in many ways such as finely ground, boiled, grilled or fried with the pulp, even eaten fresh. Some locals call it the “Tree of Life” because it is so useful, both the fruit and the young leaves are edible; Wood is very light, can be used to build houses and make canoes. The bark is even used to make clothes. The Sake tree has been brought by the Polynesians and planted in their explorations throughout the South Pacific for thousands of years. When British explorers learned about this highly productive and nutritious fruit, it was taken around the world. Today, the sake plant is found in many tropical low-lying areas in more than 90 countries. Legendary mutiny Referring to this fruit, many people will immediately remember the mutiny that happened more than 200 years ago. Number is, in 1768, when Captain James Cook set sail aboard the British Royal Navy ship HMS Endeavor, British botanist Sir Joseph Banks also followed. During that three-year expedition, they stopped for about three months in Tahiti, Polynesia. Here, when witnessing the rapid growth of the Sake tree, which requires little care and produces a very high yield of starchy fruit, the two were quickly intrigued by the prospect that this fruit would eventually be used for food. slave farming in the West Indies region of the Caribbean. Upon his return to England, Mr Banks – who later became President of the Royal Society, the world’s oldest national scientific organization – presented King George III with their findings. The botanist even offered a prize to anyone who succeeded in transporting 1,000 sachets from Tahiti to the West Indies. Nearly 20 years after Captain Cook’s original expedition, King George III appointed Navy Captain William Bligh to lead the Sake expedition, to Tahiti. On November 28, 1787, Captain Bligh sailed with his crew aboard the HMS Bounty for an ambitious mission. Their journey had a rough start. Heavy rain and strong winds caused the trip to be significantly delayed. Once they reached Tahiti, Mr. Bligh and his crew had to wait another 5 months for the trees there to be big enough to be taken away. However, by this time, new problems arose as Bligh’s sailors had become accustomed to island life and Tahitian women. Many of them don’t want to leave. So on April 29, 1789, just a month after crossing the South Pacific to the West Indies, his friend Fletcher Christian and 18 other disgruntled sailors forced Bligh and his supporters to board a boat. 7m long boat and pushed them out to sea, throwing all the sake trees on that boat to rob the ship. This mutiny on the Bounty has become a legend. Bligh and his crew miraculously survived thanks to their instincts and great memory. It was thanks to this excellent memory and instinct that the Captain and his crew were able to travel 3,618 nautical miles (approximately 6,701 km) in 48 days, reaching Timor – an island located in Southeast Asia. From there, Bligh quickly returned to England, where he was honored and acquitted of all wrongdoing. Two years later, he once again sailed to Tahiti and this time he fulfilled his mission. In fact, some of the trees believed to have been brought by Bligh in the early days are still bearing fruit in Jamaica.

According to Ms. Ha, a small trader at the 365 wholesale market, she usually sells vegetables every day. About a week ago, she started trading young crocodiles for sale. Due to the beginning of the season, the number of crocodiles purchased is not much, only 10-20 kg/day. These are young, small and sour, slightly acrid, but due to the scarcity of crocodiles, many housewives buy 1-2kg to eat. Crocodiles at the beginning of the season begin to be sold Crocodile price is only 40,000 VND/kg, much cheaper than last year’s price “Last year, I sold crocodiles at the beginning of the season for 60,000 VND/kg. But this year, due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, the price of crocodiles also decreased much, only 40,000 VND / kg. These are young crocodiles, which I bought from families in My Duc, Chuong My, Ung Hoa, “said Ms. Ha. Ms. Ha said that although young crocodiles at the beginning of the season are sour and a bit acrid, many guests especially like them. In addition to cooking sour soup, soaked in boiled water spinach, many housewives who love snacks also like young crocodiles with sugar or soaked in fish sauce. This small trader shared, in about a month, crocodiles in the North will enter the main crop. At that time, the crocodile was bigger and firmer, and thicker. The price of crocodiles when in the main season also halved, only about 20,000 VND/kg. Currently, this small trader also said that every day she sells crocodiles at the beginning of the season about 20kg. There were days when customers asked to buy more, but she did not have anything to sell. Talking about the experience of choosing to buy fresh and delicious crocodiles at the beginning of the season, Ms. Ha said: “The first 10 crocodiles in the season are almost 10, no need to carefully choose each one, they are still delicious. Buyers only need to choose large fruits with slightly lumpy skin and thick pulp to get a lot of sour meat. Avoid choosing fruits with dark skin, bruised and shiny skin because they are too young and can’t be kept for a long time. Preparing to harvest crocodiles Mrs. Do Thi Hue, a housewife in Ha Tri 1, Ha Dong, Hanoi today went to market 365 and also chose to buy 1kg of crocodile at the beginning of the season. Mrs. Hue said, her whole family liked the sour taste of crocodile more than lemon and tamarind. Because the frozen crocodile stock had just ended last week, today when I went to the market, I saw that there was a sale of alligators at the beginning of the season, she rushed to buy 1kg for 40,000 VND. “The first crocodiles in the season are mainly young crocodiles and alligators, so you can buy sour fish soup or boiled water spinach soup to get a very delicious and refreshing bowl of soup. My grandson likes to eat young crocodile with fish sauce. Therefore, I bought 1kg to eat, bought it all over again. Because young crocodiles at the beginning of the season don’t last long, they get damaged quickly,” Hue said. This housewife in Ha Dong also said that from now until the end of the crocodile season, her house still has to buy many more times. Especially near the end of the season, when the crocodile is in the period of the cake, has the most meat and the most acidity, she often buys 10 kg of crocodile to shave off the shell, wash it, then let it drain and put it in the freezer cold gradually. “With this method, my family has crocodiles to eat all year round. In addition, I also soaked a few pots of crocodile water for the whole family to drink in the summer. Or at the end of the ripe crocodile season, I take advantage of making the crocodile shell to eat gradually. It is very convenient and delicious to eat crocodiles any way,” commented Ms. Hue. From mid-May, early season crocodiles are also sold by many small traders on the online market at the price of 35,000-40,000 VND/kg. The topic of selling alligators is also very popular, a lot of housewives come in to inquire and order.

Orchid nursery nursery Di Linh – the result of the project of breeding In-vitro fake crane orchids by the Center for Science and Technology Application (under the Department of Science and Technology of Lam Dong Province). The technique of propagation by plant tissue culture (In-vitro) is no longer strange in Lam Dong province in general and Da Lat city in particular. The application of this technology to propagate the species of Orchid Di Linh was first deployed by the Center for Science and Technology Application. The project was completed, completed and accepted by Mr. Phan Quoc Chinh, Deputy Director of Lam Dong Center for Science and Technology Application and his colleagues. To select the original source of quality seed, the people who carried out the project had to collect Gia Hac Di Linh orchids in Da Lat city and Di Linh district, in orchid gardens that met strict standards. Sampled plants must have an average height of 30-40 cm, have 14-16 pairs of leaves, average trunk diameter of about 4mm and be planted in plastic or terracotta pots. Each tree has 4-5 fruits and the physiological ripening rate is not equal. Selected fruits that should be dark green and physiologically ripe, of the specified size, without cracks, were collected for inclusion in the sample. After cleaning and disinfecting, samples of Di Linh falcon will be propagated in-vitro according to the following summary procedure: Initial culture stage to create buds and clusters of buds; rapid multiplication stage; rooting stage to create a complete plant. These three stages take about 28 weeks, then the seedlings (5cm tall, 4cm long roots, good growth, dark green leaves) are brought to the nursery to plant and take care of. After about 24 weeks, the plant can be grown with a height of 5-7cm, with 4-5 leaves. According to Mr. Phan Quoc Chinh, plants grown in an In-vitro environment must ensure the conditions of temperature, humidity and light intensity according to certain cycles. In addition to the results of creating a series of fake crane orchids, the project also built a standard process for propagating this plant by the In-vitro method and can be transferred to other units. “During the implementation, we tried to add ripe banana pulp, coconut water to the culture medium. The results showed that shoot formation and shoot growth also increased faster than normal, “- Mr. Chinh said. Very cheap price Seedlings of Phalaenopsis orchids are extracted and put into nutrient bags to be raised in the laboratory before being sent to the nursery. After completing the In-vitro propagation process, the first 500 orchid seedlings were brought to the nursery at the Don Duong Experimental Station (Don Duong District) and continued to be tested on many different types of media within a short period of time. 3 months. As a result, the rate of plants living outside the nursery reached 90%. Among the types of substrates put into the experiment, the coir fiber medium helped the plant grow best, the height of the tree reached 5.6 cm; The root length is 3.70 cm, the survival rate is 95% and the tree has a large stem, dark green leaves, many leaves. According to Mr. Nguyen Nhu Chuong, Director of Lam Dong Center for Science and Technology Application, after the acceptance of the project, the Center continues to propagate about 3,000 plants to supply domestic and foreign markets at an export price. selling for only about 25,000 VND/seedling. “The method of tissue culture in the laboratory makes it possible to propagate many times larger numbers than natural breeding. Therefore, the price that the Center is selling to the market today is normal,” said Mr. Chuong. From the research results of the topic, Lam Dong Center for Applied Science and Technology has developed a baseline standard for the Di Linh Giac Giac orchid seedling and was continued by the Sub-Department of Cultivation and Plant Protection. take. Thereby, the genetic resources of rare forest orchids originating in the locality are preserved and developed. A Di Linh Fake Orchid is eligible for sale for 25,000 VND / tree, very cheap compared to the current market. According to Mr. Ho Anh Dung, Vice Chairman of Da Lat Flower Association, the quality of In-vitro seedlings will ensure higher uniformity and superiority compared to traditional methods, serving the conservation of seed resources. and commercial purposes. The first-line mother tree has been carefully selected, which will help the seedlings to preserve the best characteristics of the mother plant, not only the Di Linh orchid but also precious plants such as Ngoc Linh ginseng, Camellia flower .. .

After irradiation, samples of the fake crane orchids were taken to the separation room to be cultured in nutrient solution for a certain time. (Photo: Nguyen Dung/VNA) In Lam Dong – the “capital” of high-tech agriculture of the country, the application of new science and technology in agriculture is increasingly widespread. Especially for the plant breeding industry to preserve rare genetic resources as well as to develop commercial varieties of these plants. Wild Orchid Di Linh is one of such trees. They are not only mass-produced, but also irradiated to create mutations on demand. Di Linh fake crane – a “famous” orchid of orchid players inside and outside Lam Dong province, often sought to buy with many different prices. However with In-vitro technology As modern as it is today, for the first time, the Center for Science and Technology Application (Lam Dong Department of Science and Technology) has successfully studied the process of mass propagation of this plant. Mass breeding The technique of propagation by plant tissue culture (In-vitro) is no longer strange in Lam Dong province in general and Da Lat city in particular. The application of this technology to propagate the species of Orchid Di Linh was first deployed by the Center for Science and Technology Application. The project was completed, completed and accepted by Mr. Phan Quoc Chinh, Deputy Director of Lam Dong Center for Science and Technology Application and his colleagues. To select the original source of quality seed, the people who carried out the project had to collect Gia Hac Di Linh orchids in Da Lat city and Di Linh district, in orchid gardens that met strict standards. Sampled plants must have an average height of 30-40 cm, have 14-16 pairs of leaves, average trunk diameter of about 4mm and be planted in plastic or terracotta pots. Each tree has 4-5 fruits and the physiological ripening rate is not equal. Selected fruits that should be dark green and physiologically ripe, of the specified size, without cracks, were collected for inclusion in the sample. A seedling of the fake crane orchid has had a mutation: the color of the leaves, the stem has turned white or purple. (Photo: Nguyen Dung/VNA) After being cleaned and disinfected, samples of Di Linh imitation crane will be propagated in-vitro according to the following summary procedure: initial culture stage to create buds and clusters of buds; rapid multiplication stage; rooting stage to create a complete plant. These three stages take about 28 weeks, then the seedlings (5cm tall, 4cm long roots, good growth, dark green leaves) are brought to the nursery to plant and take care of. After the next 24 weeks, the plant can be grown with a height of 5-7cm, with 4-5 leaves. According to Mr. Phan Quoc Chinh, plants grown in an In-vitro environment must ensure the conditions of temperature, humidity and light intensity according to certain cycles. In addition to the results of creating a series of fake crane orchids, the project also built a standard process for propagating this plant by the In-vitro method and can be transferred to other units. “During the implementation, we tried to add ripe banana pulp, coconut water to the culture medium. The results showed that shoot formation and shoot growth also increased faster than normal, “- Mr. Chinh said. Very cheap price After finishing breeding process In-vitro, the first 500 orchid seedlings were brought to the nursery at the Don Duong Experimental Station (Don Duong District) and continued to be tested on many different types of media within 3 months. As a result, the rate of plants living outside the nursery reached 90%. Among the types of substrates put into the experiment, coir fiber media helped the plant grow best, the height of the tree reached 5.6cm; The root length is 3.70cm, the survival rate is 95% and the tree has a large stem, dark green leaves, many leaves. A Di Linh Fake Orchid is eligible for sale for 25,000 VND / tree, very cheap compared to the current market. (Photo: Nguyen Dung/VNA) According to Mr. Nguyen Nhu Chuong, Director of Lam Dong Center for Science and Technology Application, after the acceptance of the project, the Center continues to propagate about 3,000 plants to supply domestic and foreign markets at an export price. selling for only about 25,000 VND/seedling. “The method of tissue culture in the laboratory makes it possible to propagate many times larger numbers than natural breeding. Therefore, the price that the Center is selling to the market today is normal,” said Mr. Chuong. From the results of the study, Center for Applied Science and Technology Lam Dong has carried out the development of basic standards for Gia Hac Di Linh orchid seedlings and received by the Sub-Department of Cultivation and Plant Protection. Thereby, the genetic resources of rare forest orchids originating locally are preserved and developed. According to Mr. Ho Anh Dung, Vice Chairman of Da Lat Flower Association, the quality of In-vitro seedlings will ensure higher uniformity and superiority compared to traditional methods, serving the conservation of seed resources. and commercial purposes. The first-line mother plant has been carefully selected, which will help the seedlings to preserve the best characteristics of the mother plant, not only the Di Linh orchid but also precious plants such as Ngoc Linh ginseng, Camellia flower./ .

Making a rootstock nursery: Choose sandy soil, favorable irrigation. Plow and smooth the land. Clear weeds, combine into beds 1m wide, 20cm high, furrows 25-30cm wide. Seeds are obtained from local varieties of mangoes, preferably with the seeds. Remove the outer bark and peel off the seed coat. Sow each seed in turn on the bed surface 2-3cm apart, then dredge the soil in the trench to cover the seeds, about 3cm thick. Finally, make the canopy of the canopy to cover the sun and rain for each nursery bed and water it regularly to keep it moist. About 20-30 days later, depending on the weather, the seeds germinate and remove the plastic net covering the bed. When the tree is about 20cm tall, the buds on the top turn green, proceed to the throne immediately (uproot each plant and plant it in the potting medium). Mango is a multi-embryonic tree, 1 seed is sown for 3-5 seedlings. So it is necessary to take the throne in order, old, hard, strong trees take the throne first, young, weak and soft trees take the throne later. Note: As soon as the tree’s buds have just turned green (old locs), don’t let the tree grow a second time to take the throne. Pull the plant onto the pot gently, avoiding breaking the roots. Peeled seeds can be purchased from specialized mango seed establishments in the South, to sow seeds for the rapid multiplication of large numbers of seedlings. Newly born mango orchard. Photo: H. Tien. Electing a rootstock tree: Choose a 12 x 14 black poly bag with a drainage hole at the bottom. The potting medium consists of small soil, mixed with micro-organic fertilizer, quantitative, 1m3 of soil + 120-150kg of microbial organic fertilizer. Close the growing medium 2cm from the mouth of the pot, gently pluck each rootstock planted in the middle of the pot, then cover the pot with soil to cover the roots, then arrange each pot next to each other on a high, drained bed. Fertilize, water to keep moisture and prevent pests for the nursery, until the tree is about 1m tall, then proceed to transplant. Mango seed garden and vegetative sowing beds for grafting. Photo: H.Tien. Choose a hybrid: Depending on market demand or seed production contract with partners, to conduct grafting from Australian, Thai, 4-season or Yen Chau mango varieties, etc. The mother plant is free from pests and diseases, with good fruit and good quality. And only use grafted eyes on branches that grow across the canopy downwards, do not take branches, branches, and branches that grow loosely to water the canopy. Seedlings are collected, need to be cut into segments/sections with 3-4 leaf nodes/sleeping eyes. And also take only the branches of the same color as the cake. Do not take branches that are too old. It is best to take the old bud, after grafting, the seed will sprout quickly. Note: After the cuttings are cut, they need to be tied into bundles, with the roots and tops in the same direction, then wrapped in a damp cotton cloth, stored in a cool place, to gradually graft in 1-2 days. Mango trees after grafting. Photo: H.Tien. Joint technique: It is best to apply the technique of grafting branches. The season to conduct, should start from February-March or July-November of the lunar calendar. 25-30 days before transplanting, it is necessary to increase fertilizing for healthy, resinous and well-functioning rootstocks, increasing the compatibility between the grafted eyes and the rootstock. How to combine: On the rootstock, cut off the top to the point where the stem has a cake color (about 40cm long), but need to leave some leaves for photosynthesis. After using a specialized knife to cut the bevel from the root up, open a grafted mouth with a length of 2.5-3.0cm, a wide cutting angle of 25-30 degrees. On the base of the seedling, also cut open a similar graft, but in the opposite direction and the angle of the cut is 65-60 degrees wide. Apply the grafts of the grafted branch and the rootstock to each other, both stretch and combine the twisted nylon strip like a rope and wrap 5-6 times tightly around the graft, finally flatten the grafted nylon strip. , cover the entire stem and graft, so that rain and air do not penetrate inside. After transplanting about 20-30 days depending on the season, the seed eyes will sprout. Care of seedlings after grafting: About 2 months after grafting, the sprouts are 15-25 long, the buds have turned green, can be released from the garden. During this time, it is necessary to water enough moisture, fertilize NPK balance, thoroughly remove the wild sprouts that grow outside the graft. Timely monitoring and control of some pests and diseases such as anthracnose, leaf spot, mango planthopper.

Model of cuttings to propagate bougainvillea in Phu Dong – Gia Lam, Hanoi. Photo: H.Tien. – Select cuttings: As mentioned above, bougainvillea is a very easy plant to propagate asexually by cuttings. Except for the tops of the trees, the tops of the branches are younger than the color of the cake, the rest of the trunks on the tree can be rooted. However, for cuttings to achieve high survival rate, it is necessary to choose cuttings ≥3 years old, 20-25 cm long, 1-2 cm in diameter, with 3-4 spines (sleeping eyes). If combined with rooting stimulant, the percentage of surviving branches after cuttings will reach over 85%. Note: The cuttings must be very flat, smooth, not bruised. Should use a sharp knife to cut around the base of the branch, remove a small part of the skin that is scratched, helping to increase the rate of rooting. The branches after cutting need to be arranged at the base and tops in the same direction, to avoid confusion when cutting. For seedlings with a diameter of ≥3cm, it is necessary to cut bevels on both sides of the base to create a 3-4cm long wedge shape, to increase the permeability of root stimulants and increase the survival rate. The bougainvillea branches after rooting were transplanted and planted in plastic pots. Photo.H.Tien. – Cutting medium and cutting techniques: Collect fine sand along the river, bring it to dry in 2-3 big sunlight for sterilization and clean fungal diseases. Then spread the sand in a 15-20 thick layer in a cool and drained place. Dilute the cuttings according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Dip each bunch of rootstocks into the solution for about 1 minute. Lift it out, wait for the bunch of branches to look like water, then proceed to plug each base of the branch into the sand (prepared in advance). Distance of cuttings 5 ​​x 5 cm/1 branch. Water regularly to keep moist the sand substrate and seedlings. After 20 to 30 days of cuttings, the plant sprouts roots, sprouts, then transplants into pots. – Choose pots and growing medium: Should choose a type of black paper plastic pots for easy transportation of vehicles for long distance consumption. Pot size, 30 x 35cm, with bottom drainage hole. The growing medium according to the weight ratio includes, 70% arable land + 15% white rice husk + 13% chicken manure + 2% lime powder. Mix the medium well and incubate for 3-4 months to close the pot to plant the seedling. Note, gently pluck the seedlings, dig up the soil about 4-5 cm deep in the middle of the pot, then compact it. Then place each pot 60 x 60 cm apart on the agricultural tarpaulin-covered field, helping to drain water quickly, avoid local flooding, and prevent fertilizer from seeping into the ground and polluting the groundwater. Bougainvillea is a sun-loving plant but does not tolerate high humidity. Water only when the potting medium turns dry. – Plant care on pots: Apply NPK 13+13+13+TE periodically every 25-30 days. Dosage, 1 kg of NPK root for 30-15 pots of bougainvillea, depending on the actual growth of the plant. Combine spraying fertilizer Atonik 1.8 through the leaves, stimulating the plants to grow in balance, accelerating sprouting. When the sprouts reach more than 20 cm long, press the tops to create a canopy. Leave branches on the tree 20 cm long and 3 young leaves. The cutting of the tops of branches should be carried out regularly, so that the tree can soon achieve a luxuriant canopy and increase the harvest value. The bougainvillea has five colors thanks to the technique of grafting branches. Photo: H.Tien. Pest control: The bougainvillea tree is basically not infected with pests and diseases. However, under commercial production conditions, leaf anthracnose can occur. It is necessary to keep the garden well ventilated and promptly drain water when it rains. Absolutely do not let the garden floor and potting medium get too wet. On cloudy weather days, air humidity ≥ 80%, anthracnose room can be sprayed with one of the drugs, Score 250ND, Rocksai Super 525SE, Cure Super 300EC, Help 400SC, Nevo 330EC… instructions on the package. – Export from the garden: Paper flower cuttings, planted from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, have been sold to the market. If you prolong the care period for larger trees, they will sell for a higher price. In addition, it is also possible to bend, create canopy for the tree into artistic poses or add different flower colors to the tree, the business value will be more than doubled.

One of the steps to graft the branches to renovate citrus varieties. Photo: H.Tien. Steps taken before transplanting – On the garden of sour grapefruit varieties or low quality indigenous grapefruit varieties (real grapefruit): Choose plants that are 3-7 years old, grow well, be free of pests and diseases, especially have no stem borers, no germs. leaf rot yellow leaf disease, greening leaf yellowing (Greening) and Tristera’s disease. Then, cut down the entire canopy to the stem or branch with a diameter of ≥ 2cm, leaving only the ends for eye grafting in the position of the stem with the color of the cake, the same size as the top of the chopsticks. The number of branches left for grafting should be arranged evenly 0.5 m on the tree canopy as a mesh. Grafting season can be carried out all year round. It is best to graft in 2-3 months and 9-10 months. Note, stop watering and fertilizing on real plants 15-17 days before grafting; do not extract and graft trees into the rain. – On the mother Ruby grapefruit tree, choose a tree that grows balanced and free from pests and diseases as above. It is advisable to choose mother plants grown in a net house to prevent insects, to avoid completely dangerous diseases such as Greening and Tristera. Then, select branches under 1 year old, have rounded stems and are tilted from horizontal canopy upwards, then remove all leaves, leaf stalks attached and remove the tip at the position of the stem color of the cake. Continue to cut the branches to divide the seedling into branches containing 4-5 leaf axils, 7-10 cm long and have a flat color. Technique of grafting the branches (also called grafting, grafting wedge) – At the base of the seedling segment, use a specialized knife to cut 2 opposite beveled slices, 2-2.5 cm long to remove 2 stem parts at the base of the seedling and open a wedge-shaped composite end. At the predetermined graft head on the phylogenetic tree, split a line 2.5 cm deep at 1/3 of the tip diameter to open a grafting mouth, insert the wedge-shaped graft head into the grafted mouth that just opened above. Ruby grapefruit has been successfully grown in our country. Photo: TL. Then, stretching and twisting the nylon strip, twisting the rope, then wrap 5-6 rounds tightly around the graft. Finally, pull the grafted plastic strip flat, completely covering the seedlings and grafting spots, so that rain cannot penetrate the grafting marks and keep the seedlings from dehydrating. After about 10-15 days (depending on the season), the grafted eye will sprout. Must eradicate in time the sour grapefruit sprouts growing outside the grafted eye. Note choosing self-destructing polypropylene tape. – In addition to improving the seed by grafting wedge into the branches mentioned above, it is also possible to graft wedge into the cross section of the branches of much larger size, or graft windows, small wooden eyes along the trunks. tree, trunk. However, these grafting methods have certain limitations, compared to the method we introduced in the previous section, such as, small eye grafting with wood, only taking the seed eyes open, the tree will grow long. , time for exploiting business results is slower … Take care of real plants after grafting Spraying to draw amulets when the eyes are like sprouting is 0.5-1.0 cm long. Except for red spiders, soft aphids, leaf hoppers and plant diseases, during the period when eyes are like spreading branches and canopy. Fertilizer for 1 root: 0.2-0.3 kg NPK 13-13-13 + TE, fertilize periodically once a month. Foliar fertilizer sprayed evenly 7 days / times. Decomposed chicken manure 20-30 kg + 2-3 kg of microbiological organic fertilizer, fertilizing when the grafted eye has reached about 15 cm long branches. After 1-2 years grafting and improving, Ruby grapefruit trees have been exploited for business. From this stage on, the steps to take care and control pests and diseases are similar to other current pomelo seedlings. Ruby grapefruit is one of the elite citrus varieties of Thailand, which has been imported into our country. The variety has the advantages of strong growth and development, beautiful fruit shape, good resistance to pests and diseases, red fruit, thick and thick pods, fragrant sweetness, no seeds … Grapefruit is equivalent to or slightly better than that of our country’s green skin grapefruit. , depending on farming techniques and ecological conditions. Ruby grapefruit tree is easy to distinguish from other grapefruit varieties thanks to the small leaves and branches, smooth hair.

Plump One of Phu Tho’s specialties is palm palm, processed from a small glutinous palm variety, for a flexible, fragrant part. After picking, people wash the palms and heads by boiling for 5 – 10 minutes to soften, then take out and enjoy. The steps are simple but require workers to be experienced because if they are done too carefully, the brush will be crushed and lose fatness; if not well, the brush will be embarrassed. Palmina is a popular dish, often served with garlic fish sauce. In addition to the red palm, the Phu Tho people also make palm salt into a melon or warehouse with fish. Palm leaves rice ball To have a fragrant and sticky palm leaf rice dish, choose a delicious rice cooked with rain water. After blowing the cooked rice, a wet towel was pulled out, then grasped tightly, rolling it thoroughly so that the rice ball was round, firm but still soft and supple. Before that, people had to choose the leaves of the rice cakes (young leaves), cleaned, dried and heated to soften. Next is to cut the palm leaves into square pieces and wrap the split rice balls, tie the ends up, then roll over and over. Rice is held with palm leaves for a sweet, fragrant flavor that can be kept for a few days. The palm leaf rice ball is often dipped with sesame salt or eaten with dry roasted pork, salted eggs … Palm silkworms Palm silkworm is a dish that only Phu Tho has. 1 week before processing, people cut a palm tree and then drop into the trunk about 20-30 silkworms to eat them until they are fat, the skin turns yellow and white before they can be processed. The first is to drop silkworms in a bowl of diluted vinegar to let them get rid of dirt, and prepare spices including salt, chili, pepper, and MSG. Then, people skew the silkworms through the bars of a small brush and grill over charcoal. When the aroma emanates from the grilled silkworms, the yellow brown color can be enjoyed. Grilled palm silkworms will taste better when enjoyed while still hot.

Braised potato bud is a traditional dish of the people.

Potato buds here are not sweet potato buds, but buds of varieties with vertical (some places also known as sheaths or sepals) such as yams, galangal potatoes, sweet potatoes, spotted potatoes … which are common in the village. Every countryside has it, easy to grow, easy to take care of, and has many economic benefits and values.

The tuber is used for boiling or stir-frying to make soup. Along the way, potatoes are used to raise pigs, they often eat quickly. And the potato buds (except for the speckled potato, which is a very itchy potato that few users use) bring the soy sauce warehouse for us to eat very delicious soup, with a strong flavor of the countryside.

Potato buds that are not available all year round are only seasonal and for a very short time. Potatoes are usually grown from November of the previous lunar year to May next year, then harvest. The time from when the potato grows to mid-April, the potato grows and gives birth, so it is not picking buds. It was not until early May 1-2 weeks before harvest that they picked potato buds to both feed and for the dwarf potatoes to focus on nourishing the fat tubers.

To have sweet and non-itchy sweet potato buds, from preparation to cooking operations must be very meticulous, careful and attentive. Experience when picking potato buds is to choose the leaf buds that are still tightly wrapped and then bring them out to dry in the light sun for a little re (usually picking in the early morning, drying at noon to cook).

Before cooking, wash it and then fold it into a clay pot in layers, on the bow spread a turn of copper crabs, peeling off the bib and muzzle. Take 2 bamboo cross-pinned crossbones on the top of the pot so that the buds are not inflated when they boil. Take a delicious scoop of soy sauce, dilute with water, add the potato buds and cook. When effervescent, pay attention to reduce the heat, only give effervescent five. Absolutely do not immerse the chopsticks.

Watching when the water in the pot is exhausted gradually, use a water bath to dilute it with water with a little more lard (called row water), sometimes using a scoop to water it gradually. Just boil it almost dry and water the goods in, doing so from 4 to 5 times is nine. At this time, you can take the chopsticks dipped in to check the light salinity to adjust to fit. Then, depending on the large or small soup pot, more or less, you can add 1 or 2 longitudinal fruits that have been cooked, wash off the shells, seeds, then strip on top and add a little more water to cook. shallow is fine.

Lift down the pot and open the pot to cool down. When using the pin to lift the chopsticks, carefully pick each potato bud in the bowl, it looks like each potato bud on the outside is still hunted, but the inside is softly ripe, giving off a sweet aroma of vertical, crab, sweetness and flavor. typical taste of copper potatoes, it is unforgettable to eat.
