Spring, it isThe 24 solar termsOne of which is also called "DaChun", "state" is the meaning of "start", China in spring as the beginning of the spring, every year on February 4 or 5, the sun arrived at longitude 315 degrees for spring, departure pulled seventy-two hou the: "the first quarter, stand, JianShi also, from summer to winter."The ancient "four vertical", refers to the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons, its agricultural significance for long "spring, summer, autumn harvest, winterizing", sums up the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River during the process of agricultural production and climate relations.

The meanings

English: pinyin: li ch ū n spring begins

Across China's vast and complex geographical conditions and climate difference, the four seasons are short, therefore, although the "four vertical" can reflect the climate characteristics of the four seasons in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, "" the specific meaning of climate was not significant, cannot be used all over the country.In the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River soil release dates since spring;Spring begins first syndrome should be "the east", the basic are the same, but as a symbol of spring, lost too early.China climatology, often in daily average temperature stability of the every five days beginning days from the date of 10 ℃ above divided into spring, it does not accord with spring meaning in the lower Yellow River.Although made a spring, but in most of south China is still very cold, "snow is too late spring scenery, so wear a family tree for fly".Early February, the real into the spring only in south China.But this classification method is more practical.Spring after the rise of temperature, spring busy season started back in most regions of the country.stateThe Spring FestivalGas, south east Asia westerly jet has begun to weaken, winter climate is coming to an end.But the north west wind basic did not change, the intensity and position of Mongolia cold high and the Aleutian low is still relatively strong, strong wind of jianghuai region is still the main weather.But in the strong cold air gap.PianNaFeng frequency increased, accompanied by obvious process of the rise of temperature.

The ancient saying

Fifteen (15) days of spring can be divided into three syndrome in ancient China: "one hou the east, two hou sting vibration in the beginning, three hou fish negative accompanied ice", said the dongfeng gifts, the earth began to thaw.Spring begins after five days, secluded in insect slowly wake up in the hole, in five days, the ice began to melt in the river, the fish to swim in the water, and at this point on the surface of the water and not completely dissolved of borneol, like fish was negative with floating in the water.Since the qin dynasty, China has been to spring as the beginning of spring.Spring comes up from the astronomical division, in nature, in people's mind, spring is warm, charactizing a fine spring day.Spring is the growth, no-till seeding.In climatology, spring refers to a syndrome (5 days for a syndrome) average temperature 10 ℃ to 22 ℃ slots.

Climate differences

To spring, people clearly feel the day is long, the sun warm.Temperature, sunlight, rainfall, which is often in the turning point of the year, tend to rise or increase.Doing accelerate crop condition, water consumption increases when bolt rape and wheat jointing stage, should be timely watering fertilizer, promote growth.Farmer's saying a reminder "spring rain that was up early and sleep late" DaChun were also started.Although made a spring, but in most of south China is still very cold "the snow is too late spring scenery, so wear a family tree for fly".These climate characteristics, when arranging the agricultural production is should consider.

People often look for spring information: love the willow that poked its head on the bud, "tender in soft golden in silk";Ahead in the dirt, grass, waiting for "born again when the spring breeze blows";And for seizing the new harvest in the field of hard work, is use both hands to create a real spring.Spring throttle is also popular with farmers in the solar terms, because it brings the warm, offers hope.Therefore, about the spring weather is saying a lot.Such as based on sunny no rain in the spring weather. The rain well, "spring sunny, a sunny spring", etc.;Streaming based on rain and snow have "made the spring rain, Yin was wet to the qingming festival", "DaChun under the snow, the one hundred - day still rain", etc.;Based on lightning has "made by lightning during the Spring Festival, surprised zhi rain without rest", "spring begins a loud thunder, January day", etc.;Based on changes in temperature of the "spring, a spring";Based on wind of spring north wind much rain ", "spring dongfeng recovery early, late spring west wind pick up" and so on.

Spring throttle to prevent cold cold and rain and snow weather influence on Spring Festival, the countryside, we need to work quickly to Vietnam DongZuoWu field management, cultivating scarification, topdressing striking root fertilizer, anti-freezing BaoMiao.

The first day and spring which is a year of the first lunar month

Think spring is the first thing:

Spring is the first of 24 solar terms so ancient folk are in "spring" this day is a holiday, equivalent to the modern "Spring Festival", the lunar calendar the first day referred to as "the first lunar monthNew Year's Day".(two years of the republic of China) in July 1913, as the "Spring Festival", yuan shikai to formulate the lunar New Year's day begins to execute the following year (1914).Since then, a summer said at the Spring Festival, has been down ever since.So the animal sign shall be calculated starting from the spring, rather than on the first day of the first lunar month.

Think that the first day is the first lunar month of the first formula:

"Spring" can only say that spring is coming, do not represent the first day of the New Year, New Year's day (on) is the first day of the New Year."New Year's day" in ancient China always refers to the farmers (xia, Yin) through the first day."New Year's day", "yuan" refers to the beginning, is the first point, the beginning of every number is called "yuan";"Dan", pictographs, the above ", "on behalf of the sun, the" a "represents the horizon below."Denier" as the sun rises from the horizon, symbolizes the beginning of a day.People put the "yuan" and "denier" two words together, is extended to the first day of the New Year began.In AD 1911, the leadership of xinhai revolution, sun yat-sen overthrew the rule of qing dynasty, the republic of China was established.The provincial chief representative meeting in nanjing, decided to use the Gregorian calendar, put in the first month the new moon of the lunar calendar is called "Spring Festival", the Gregorian calendar on January 1, called "New Year's day".But was not officially announced and naming.To the sun in early January 1912 as the temporary President in nanjing, in order to "summer line is so suitable season, from the western, so statistics", set the first lunar month as the Spring Festival, change to the Gregorian calendar on January 1, known as the "New Year", at but still called "New Year's day".After the republic of China, while on January 1 as New Year's day, there were only organs, schools, and foreign business of foreign firm big firms such as just 1 day vacation, people do not admit, delay still bear the ancient old habits to lunar month for the New Year, so the old Beijing's streets and folk are no celebrations.The first day is the first evidence that the first lunar month

New Year's day is a word begins with three sovereigns, tang fang xuanling and others write the Book of Jin upload: "xu emperor for Meng Chun in yuan, at that time is: New Year's day in the spring."That call on the yuan, the first for the denier.

The word "and" New Year's day originated in southern dynasties, people Xiao Ziyun dielectric jas poem: "the new New Year's day, four gas Wan Shouchu today.";Song dynasty wu self "dream Liang Lu" volume one "on the" entries: "the ShuoRi day, New Year's day, common for the New Year.First section sequence, this is the first."

Ancient Chinese New Year's day, is not a general "Gregorian calendar" -- the Gregorian calendar on January 1.Liberaty month day of New Year's day in China, on the first day, the first lunar month shang dynasty in the month of December, the zhou dynasty in the month of November, qin shi huang unified the six countries after the first day of New Year's day in October, since all previous dynasties down intact (shiji).In the beginning of emperor han wu yuan, sima qian created "the beginning calendar", this again in the first day for New Year's day, the first lunar month and took provisions, say again so "a summer", has been used to the xinhai revolution.

About the Chinese zodiac

Spring is called "Spring Festival" in the past, but the spring just be taken from you name, doesn't mean the spring is the New Year, read history knows that the common sense, it's just that some people don't understand, handy into spring is the New Year.Remember the real New Year is day, don't make a mistake you zodiac!

Spring convention

Spring begins with the animal sign

Now according to the lunar calendar, known as a summer in the past, according to legend founded in dynasty, shang, zhou, qin dynasty although have change, also has nothing to do with the spring;And from the beginning of the emperor, specifically with a summer the first day for the New Year, the first lunar month in use today, again has not changed (only the perfect and accurate).Recently, the Internet is the lunar New Year from when sparked debate: have said lunar New Year from the date the spring, has said that since the first day is the first lunar month.Chun-sheng ye, said professor lunar should from spring, namely on February 4.

Calculate zodiac must see spring begins first proposed the "Chinese zodiac year begins with spring" point of view of professor chun-sheng ye is the core of this debate.Yesterday evening, the reporter called his phone, he has just finished another media interview, phone in the voice a bit tired."My view is very clear, the Spring Festival starts from the first lunar month, but calculate zodiac must start with spring."Chun-sheng ye said firmly, "the real and this is not what new ideas, you open any an almanac, are so marked on it."Chun-sheng ye told reporters that in the first lunar month every year the Spring Festival is the modern to decide."In 1912, sun yat-sen, announced the abolition of lunar calendar calendar.A decree in 1914, the then President of the republic of China yuan shikai, rules first lunar month is the Spring Festival every year.Before that, the traditional spring as the beginning, earlier had the winter solstice as beginning.""Chinese zodiac year should, therefore, is the spring as the starting point, because spring ranked first in the 24 solar terms, according to the beginning of spring, also marks the arrival of the New Year."Chun-sheng ye said, "and because of this, spring is not only a solar terms, it is a holiday.Ancient Kings will be held in the spring the day ritual activities, in order to calm in the New Year.In the lunar calendar is a solar term and festivals like this a lot, such as the qingming festival, winter solstice, etc."A lunar year in sa to mutually because of a leap in July, according to the lunar calendar this year has 385 days, in addition to have a spring in head, late December 17 and a spring (February 4, 2007).If the chun-sheng ye's point of view, there will be an interesting phenomenon: Chinese New Year's child have three animal sign - before the 7th dayroosterAnd the seventh day to December 16Belong to the dogThat month, after seventeenIs a pig."Yes, such two head spring of year will appear such circumstance.This kind of situation is not uncommon in the lunar calendar, basically more than ten years there will be a time."Chun-sheng ye said, "if it more accurate, July 7th in lunar calendar in children born after 25 points belong to the dog, because spring is in the moment.""So you also should pay attention to, in addition to the years' their chicks', another batch of 'young piglets born late."Chun-sheng ye laughed.Some researchers agree as a home of their authority, chun-sheng ye got part of the house of folklore agree with point of view."Chinese zodiac and calendar are two systems, Chinese zodiac should be backdated to spring."Beijing normal university Chinese department professor Xiao Fang said.Singapore, honorary President of easy to learn Chen Yaokuan also agree with this view, he said, according to Chinese calendar calculation,Chinese zodiacCalculation has relationship with Chinese era, so in the theory of "Chinese era, calculate 24 gas", must wait until the "spring", is the beginning of a new Chinese zodiac.Professor at Shanghai normal university humanities college dean Sun Xun tells a reporter, do reading, is indeed the spring as the beginning of next year, and from the habit of people, or look for the first lunar month is the starting point, because of easy to remember.Then produced a contradiction between, this contradiction for most people, influence is not big, but for some people, especially the "embarrassment" time to avoid having a little trouble.Professor sun know a friend, born in 1972, the year as spring begins early, catch on the first day of the first lunar month ahead, my friend was born before, the first day after spring.Home elders who all think that he is a pig, but to face reading there, he was "change"Belong to the ratA.

Farming guide

A summary and vegetable crop

___________ spring greenhouse vegetables management

Spring greenhouse vegetables is refers to the harvest time in early march to July of melon seeds.Most of the varieties of vegetables after the spring into the vegetative stage, solanaceous fruit vegetable vegetative growth and flowering results at the same time.

Do a good job, fostering the following:

(1) heat preservation and antifreeze.Early spring chilling injury and frost damage occurs in two aspects: one is plant grow, the increase of the water, fat, artificial management make plant cold hardiness of dropped significantly.Spring begins and there is still a bigger cold snap, make the solanaceous fruit vegetable producing frozen in greenhouse, chilling injury.Therefore, to continue to do a good job of cold-weather antifreeze.Solanaceous fruit vegetable have larger growth, must be carried out within the greenhouses 2 membrane covering.Melons for easier than solanaceous fruit seas, in addition to the use of two membrane covering, but outside the shed all round the skirt pile of straw bundle membrane position, strengthen resistance around the greenhouses of cold air invasion;Still the melon seedling in seedling stage, the night curtain can cover on the small tunnel sun-shade net, straw or non-woven, enhance the capacity of heat preservation;In case of strong cold air coming, must be freeze protection measures.

2 well ventilated breathe freely.After spring, along with the sunshine time, temperature, relative humidity increases, in order to reduce the plant diseases and insect pests, satisfies the requirement of melon seeds growth environment conditions, must be seriously do a good job in relative temperature and humidity management depends on the weather changes and plant growth condition, ready to open the door and jie film ventilation, close the door and cover film thermal management.

(3) to do a good job of protect flower and fruit.Low temperature affects more vegetables varieties fertilization results, prone to falling fruit drop.On the production at present, the method to improve the fruit, is a form of plant growth regulator with flowers or besmear in the ovary, applying plant growth regulator should be used according to the instruction manual, prevent excessive concentrations, the adr.The second is using artificial supplementary pollination.

(4) to do a good job of prevention and cure of diseases and pests., increase along with the rising temperatures and relative humidity inside the greenhouse vegetables are prone to mould, epidemics, blight and aphids.Prevention and control of diseases and pests agricultural prevention and control should be adopted, the combination of management such as well relative temperature and humidity, reduce relative humidity, furrow pave grass, water, fertilization timely pruning, diseased leaflets, spraying pesticide prevention.

This spring greenhouse vegetables seedling

Melons in electric hotbed block before and after the spring sowing, choose early maturity, high yield, to carry out the degree of small, internodes short, suitable for intensive step-stone, female flowers appeared earlier and the dense, easy flushing, weak light, good low temperature resistance, moisture resistance, disease resistance and other characteristics of good varieties.

C. greenhouse fruit engraftment

(1) solanaceous fruit.Such as tomato precocious cultivation, in the spring after engraftment.

2 melons.Stage, respectively, after the spring planting in plastic small tunnel or plastic big tent sheds to cover cultivation.

4. Outdoor vegetable cultivation management

(1) mainly completes the fertilizer application, after the rain water drainage, a big bowl of beans, etc.Ripe vegetables to harvest in a timely manner.

2 cruciferous vegetables (such as Chinese cabbage, green vegetables, carrots, etc.) in farming, to do a good job in fertilizer and the field of mixed in order to ensure the quality of seed purity and.

Second, the fruit trees the soil profile

___________ citrus

(1) a young tree: complete orchard garden and repair irrigation and drainage systems, manure and other work.Complete the plastic clip, long autumn tail short section, excessive tree spares to the overlapping branch, dense branches, short section water sprout;Small old trees in front of the green germination short cut.Heavy fertilizer, using the orchard interplanting green manure, open hole, deep dish scarification, ridging tree at the same time.

2 result tree: make pruning and heavy weight.Pruning: years of fertility and weak tree pruning to restore the tree potential, for the purpose of the spring pin stirring, cut off weak branches, branches and twigs of diseases and pests, short section has been the result of the branches.Between hydrophobic plexiform "broom" branch, bore "leave" weak branches (2-3 inches with 2-3 bud branches) short section;Fertilization: enlarge hole content, heavy fertilizer, dig to ditch, 60 cm deep, 40 -- 50 cm wide, long groove depending on the canopy, soil into manure, compost, 25-30 kg phosphate 0.5-1 kg, bran fertilizer 1-1.5 kg, 0.5 kg of lime, green manure as fertilizer source is applied into the;Spraying on the leaf fertilizer: with urea, compound fertilizer 0.5% or 0.3% can be combined with disease-resistant spraying.

2. Yang mei

Pay special attention to the plastic clip.Clip to improve within canopy light is given priority to, the upper and peripheral to thinning, lower or bore fruit set using the short section, update.Give priority to with light cut, and strive to crown ventilation pervious to light.Trees give priority to in order to update aging.The young tree is given priority to with plastic, cultivate high tree.Pays special attention to the new garden development at the same time, the seedling planting appropriate deep covered (the graft), plant after timely watering, and weeds, and survival.

3. Loquat

In the spring after spring fertilizer by installments.Adult trees, to promote the growth of spring shoots and fruit growth, fertilizer rate accounted for about 30% of the total annual fertilizing.Plant 20 kg human excrement, 0.8 -- 1 kg ternary compound fertilizer.For lack of boron loquat garden, flowering spraying 0.1% borax solution.Young trees, give priority to in order to expand the canopy, thin ShiQin, strain rare human excrement 10-15 kg.To increase fruit weight, enhance tree ShiYao fruit thinning, generally in the spring after the middle of February to march (stable temperature over 10 degrees), divided into 2 to 3 times.Hydrophobic besides the first cold fruit, deformity fruit, fruit diseases and pests, again depending on the species, tree potential strength to determine the amount of fruit, select and remain development strong, fruit to uniformly distributed in the canopy.

Three, summary of livestock farming

___________ attention to do a good job of column shed to keep warm.

2. Do a good job in cattle BaoBiao in feed green hay at the same time, increasing bran feed.

3. Hares is strong heat preservation ability, but in the process of hair, pay attention to only pull bust hair, prevent cold sick.

4. Special attention should be paid to the young livestock and poultry insulation work, prevent the animal gastrointestinal diseases and respiratory diseases.

⒌ livestock drinking water is strictly prohibited drinking ice water or cold water, it is advisable to had better use warm water or well water.

Pictures to do a good job of preventing livestock outside the source, especially before and after the Spring Festival, the pig market increases, special attention should be paid to circulation field and livestock epidemic dynamic of market, at the same time, pigs, cattle, sheep and other cloven-hoofed animals have not epidemic prevention, livestock to recharge animal vaccines.

Folk chun

The ancients will spring as the 24 solar terms.Spring day, at seven o 'clock in the evening when looking at the stars, the bucket handle of the big dipper point to the northeast, the azimuth Angle of 45 degrees, the ancients called the direction of gen (gossip).

Folk chun activities is also very busy.Spring day, courtyard houses and farm yard to high hung "spring complications", each door frame should be labeled as a couplet written in red paper, such as "laugh a warm spring breeze", "four seasons peace shu new scene", or "snow harvest, eight party in delight", "spring", six contract and so on antithetical couplet, the court also the interior walls covered with "spring-heralding", "yichun" and "f" word, make the view of the college, a piece of red, appear the awaken of spring thick, also symbolizes the auspicious.Adult children to put on clean clothes, women face wipe on Yan powder, a head with written words everyone in the spring of red velvet flower, or with color where, cut the symbol of the spring has to ChunYan flowers and birds such as hairpin on the bun, also some with red paper cut a cock shapes on the door, because chickens and "ji" homophonic, are auspicious sign."Yee cut cut red wonderful spring scenery, GongMeiDian willow is day.Yao basket CaiYan in red first, golden ray of the morning chicken not studying."The classical poems are write spring scenery full courtyard, happy winter jasmine.

Spring, in addition, some villages and towns "YingChunHui", often find a teenage boy disguised as a magistrate, wearing paper palace clothing, garment paper cap, pedal paper boots, rode on a cattle, to the sacrificial altar, lead the people pray bless good crop weather, the grain and make it plentiful and beating drums, along the waySet off firecrackersIn early spring day.

Old Beijing and peasant to find a boy, wear tsing yi dai qing cap, standing in the field, and then the peasant, bang the drum from the in the fieldThe childThanks to come back to meet, called "spring-heralding".Has so far been farmers to write "chun fu" or "spring home boom" red banners posted on the wall, and on the fruit or spring plate, await the arrival of spring.Because of these winter jasmine etiquette, decoration and costumes and play cattle, so the spring is also referred to as "DaChun".

Spring also known as "harbinger."Now there is still the old customs in the countryside, which consists of a hand on the small drums, singing of good will, send you a ChunNiu figure from door to door.On the red paper printing ChunNiu figure, with a year 24 solar terms and, holding the cow cultivated land, people call it "spring posts".This send ChunNiu diagram, its meaning is in urge to remind people, spring, speed up farming, don't miss a good spring day.This send ChunNiu figure of the vulgar, recorded in the "age of yanjing record" : "spring day, does not show into the hills throne, suitable tianfu into ChunNiu figure, to rise back to the office."In old Beijing folk bedroom wall, also often stick with ChunNiu figure and 24 solar terms WenTuBingMao New Year pictures.Visible harbinger of common were very popular in the imperial palace and ancient urban and rural areas.

Bite is refers to the spring, spring spring plate, eat the ripening, eat spring rolls, chew carrot, a "bite" revealed many of the festive food.
