The Spring Festival is approaching. Tianjin Gegu turnips sell well.

At present, it is the peak sales period of Gegu radish, and vegetable farmers use the greenhouse to keep the radish warm, so that the growing season of radish can be extended to the end of winter and sell at a good price before the Spring Festival.

As the saying goes, "if you eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, you don't need a doctor to prescribe a prescription." With the Spring Festival approaching, it is the peak selling period of Gegu radish again. Han Baolai, head of Yuejin vegetable base in Gegu Town, Jinnan District, said: "A large temperature difference between day and night is particularly effective in converting sugar to our radish sweetness, and it makes the radish greener and more crisp."

Gegu radish has its unique characteristics, the local people once summed up a jingle, "look at the surface, round, feel, smooth, heavy in the hand, fell to the ground 18." Not only that, Gegu carotene is also famous for its green and pollution-free. Han Baolai said: "in our early planting, the fertilizers used were all organic fertilizers purchased from other places, including chicken manure and cow manure, all pollution-free pesticides, biological pesticides, fixed-point procurement." According to our years of experience, there is still soil quality. Basically, during the period of management and protection, diseases and insect pests are basically invisible. "

In the prosperous Longyuan Agricultural Park in Jinnan District, with the Spring Festival approaching every year, Gegu radish has become the darling of members scrambling to buy. Ma Xiaoli, head of the park, said: "Jinnan District, Tanggu and Dagang are not too far from our park. It is convenient for everyone to come to see, pick up and eat radishes. Whether it is the Spring Festival or usually, it is a very good gift for relatives and friends."

How to keep the picked gegu radish fresh? Han Baolai, the person in charge of Yuejin vegetable base in Gegu Town, Jinnan District, introduced their preservation experience. "if it is in an outer packing box of radish, put it in a cool place and the temperature should be controlled between minus 4 ℃ and 7 ℃. The storage temperature of radish without packing box should be between 1 ℃ and 2 ℃ to 7 ℃. Under these conditions, Gegu radish can be preserved for more than half a month. "
