This purple vegetable is known as a natural beauty product with seeds that touch the soil and produce a lot of results.

At the end of September of one year, it was time for the harvest of "moth eyebrow bean". Of course, moth eyebrow bean is just the name of our place. I don't know my friends, what's your name? And its scientific name is lentil, moth eyebrow is originally to describe a woman's slender and beautiful eyebrows, lentils are also curved and long, although it is a little fat, but it is still very vivid.

What we grow here is a kind of purple lentil, which is more purple than white lentils, while purple food itself is rich in natural anthocyanins and selenium, which has strong antioxidant capacity and is called "natural beauty products". Regular eating can delay aging, but also improve immunity, cancer prevention and anti-cancer effect.

It is said that purple lentil is a kind of vegetable that is easy to feed and high yield. we usually plant it on the edge of the vegetable garden and leave it alone after watering the seeds. It will climb along the fence all the time, even if there is no fence, as long as it is supported by a tree, it will continue to climb, some up to 6 or 7 meters high.

In the future, we will no longer buy seeds to sow seeds every year. Maybe the seeds fell last year, and a large area will grow along the old place. So in rural areas, we basically don't specialize in growing this kind of vegetable, nor will we water it and fertilize it. It just doesn't matter, but it grows a lot year after year, and if the family can't finish it, they send it to their neighbors to eat.

We eat purple lentils, mainly for hot stir-frying, washing and shredding, and then stir-fry with fat or belly meat with more fat. This kind of lentils boiled in lard and then fried is really delicious.

It is very easy to grow purple lentils, it is very adaptable and resistant to barren, the general garden soil can be planted, the most suitable growth temperature is between 18-30 ℃, summer grows quickly, September-October fruit, but not resistant to frost, probably when it gets cold in November, it will not bear fruit again.

Although the drought tolerance of purple lentil is very strong, it also needs appropriate watering during the growing period, and the soil is mainly slightly moist. The fruiting ability of purple lentil itself is very strong. If you apply enough basic fertilizer at the beginning of planting, and then apply some farm manure during the growing period, it will make it more high-yield and better quality.
