In addition, after long beans are planted, they can be erected for their growth according to the requirements of growers. After hanging, it is easy to pick fruits and control pests and diseases.
2. Long beans can be planted in the open air twice a year, once in spring and once in summer. What I planted in summer is called a little red and cold cowpea. Its pods are much shorter than spring cowpea and full of meat.
3. In terms of nutrients, long bean is rich in vitamins B and C, which is an indispensable micronutrient for human growth.
4. People like to grow long beans, is it because they can be cooked, or they can be made into sour cowpeas to eat, or they can be scalded with boiling water, dried into Jiangdou Gan, and burned with pork in winter. With the help of the smell of pork and Jiangdou Gan, it can be described as a food with unique flavor and excellent taste! So it is favored by more people.
