It's the rice planting season again, and it's the season when the raspberries are ripe, and it is a very happy and interesting thing to go back to the countryside to hunt for raspberries in the mountains.
When I was a child, Qingjiang Crane was grazing cattle in the mountains, and I was fascinated by picking raspberries, which caused the "disobedient" cattle to "make a fuss" and gnaw other people's corn seedlings, and as a result, I lost money.

When I was a child, Qingjiang Crane did not know what raspberry was, only knew that the rice planting season, this kind of "mountain bubble" (commonly known as rice planting bubble) that grew on the mountain field was the peak season of picking, and it was necessary to seize the time to pick "all-weather", otherwise it would not be a few days later, and the rice planting bubble would fall to the ground and rot because it was overripe, which was a pity.
Later, when I went to junior high school, I studied Mr. Lu Xun's "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Study" in the textbook, and Qingjiang Crane knew that the rice planting bubble we often praised was Mr. Lu Xun's raspberry.
Needless to say, the green cabbage, the smooth stone well bar, the tall honey locust tree, and the purple mulberry; Needless to say, the cicadas are singing in the leaves, the fat wasps are crouching on the cauliflower, and the light and agile Ye Tianzi suddenly rushes from the grass to the clouds.

Raspberry is the taste of spring, have you tasted it:

The fruit of raspberries is aggregate and red or dark red, golden yellow or purplish-black, but predominantly red or dark red raspberries. It is shaped like a small wine glass, and the surface is covered with a layer of fine fluff, hence the name "raspberry".
Raspberry prefers a warm and humid environment, and grows mostly in mountain areas such as mountain slopes and river valleys, and is a mountain fruit. However, in foreign countries, raspberries have been used as special fruits, and they have been improved and cultivated, called "golden fruits", realizing a gorgeous turn from "local chicken" to "phoenix".
Raspberries bloom in spring, while the fruits ripen in early summer (Nitakayama ripens in early to mid-May). There are two main ways to reproduce raspberries: seed propagation and cuttings propagation. If you want to carry out artificial wild transformation of "home" growth value-added cultivation, it is best to use cuttings to propagate seedlings, and a small amount of artificial cultivation can use the method of ramification propagation and seedling raising, which can shorten the seedling formation time, enter the fruiting period of raspberries early, and increase planting income to achieve planting benefits (economic and social benefits).
