The ginkgo tree is known as an ancient "living fossil", and such an ancient plant has also aroused people's curiosity, and the ginkgo tree is full of white fruits, which has also aroused people's curiosity. Sometimes when you walk down the street, you can see white fruits that have fallen into the ground, so why do these fruits fall to the ground but no one picks them up and eats them?
If you want to talk about the history of the development of the ginkgo tree, it may have to be traced back to about 300 million years ago, and it is also the only surviving species of ancient ginkgo plants so far, when the age of the ginkgo tree was still in the ancient Carboniferous periodIt is precisely because of the long age that it is called a "living fossil".
After so many winds and frosts, the plant has survived, and it has also experienced the Ice Age, when the world suddenly cooled, and many plants were on the verge of extinction, but only the ginkgo tree survived smoothly, until nowThe ginkgo tree has also been known as a symbol of good luck.
The leaves of the ginkgo tree are also very special, in the summer it looks green, and the really beautiful time is in the autumn, the autumn ginkgo tree looks golden from afar, in addition to being good-looking,It can also be used as a medicinal herb. The shape of the leaves is also very special, like a fan that turns yellow when it matures, which has a very beautiful meaning.
Because the meaning of the ginkgo tree is good, and it looks good after growing into a towering tree, it is also liked by foreignersNowadays, in North Korea, Europe and the United States and other countries, there are ginkgo treesIt can be seen that the ginkgo tree has gone international, especially in autumn and winter, and the yellow ginkgo tree on the roadside is really beautiful.
But the seemingly perfect ginkgo tree is actually extremely troublesome in the process of propagation and propagation. Because ginkgo trees are divided into male and femaleIn other words, the two sexes are different, and the reproductive organs they have are also different. Therefore, if you want the ginkgo tree to bear fruit, it must be pollinated by the reproductive organs, and it will bear fruit only after the pollination is successful.
In the past two years, the number of ginkgo trees has increased, which has also solved the problem of plant endangerment. Someone was passing under the ginkgo treeThese well-grown ginkgo trees will always be found, and they will always have white fruitsIt seems that there is still a certain appetite, but I don't know what the taste is, as a foodie Chinese, naturally want to try it.
However, after trial and experimentation,It was found that the fruit of the ginkgo tree did not seem to be edibleThe main reason why you can't eat it is not because it tastes badbut because it contains toxinsIf you accidentally eat it, it is likely to cause the body to react, which will affect the health of the body.
The fruit of the ginkgo tree contains fruit acidAlthough this chemical product does not seem to be harmful, in fact, after the human body eats it, it will have an impact on people's health, and a small amount of it will not be harmful, but it is afraid that the content will exceed the standard, and it will cause adverse consequences at that time.
Just having oxalic acid is a compound, which has made the fruit of the ginkgo tree have no fate with humans, but I didn't expect that there is a substance in this food, which is also toxicIts name is hydrocyanic acid,There is also a risk of poisoning after eating too much.
These two compounds will not produce a violent reaction after the human body eats them, because the content of the toxin is still relatively small, that is, I am afraid that some people will be greedyIf the accumulated amount of fruit is reached after eating too much, it will have more serious consequences and risksSo when the fruit is ripe, you will see that the ground is full of white fruits.
Because these fruits are indeed poisonous, if the dosage is not well controlled, and it will be harmful to the body after eating, then only you will be injured, so many people will not eat the ginkgo tree after it is ripe in order to avoid this kind of situation.
Don't look at this fruit as poisonous, but a long time ago, people in ancient times had tried it, and they only needed to control the dosage, and it was still good for the bodyBecause this fruit has medicinal value,As long as it is eaten within the dose, it can achieve an appetizing effect.
But if you want to eat this fruit, you have to ask the doctor's opinion, after all, you can't eat the toxin fruit casually, if you really want to eat it, you must eat the treated ginkgo seeds, and the treated ginkgo seeds can still be eaten after eating.
Ginkgo biloba trees need to have a certain growth cycleAnd the growth cycle of this tree is extraordinarily longSince the beginning of cultivation, it takes about 20 years for the fruit to bear fruit smoothly, and only the female ginkgo tree can bear fruit smoothly, while the male does not have this function.
Beginning in March and April, these ginkgo trees slowly spread their leaves, around May, they slowly bloom, and in October, the fruits will ripen, and by the time winter comes, the trees will slowly shed their leaves.
Don't look at the growth process of ginkgo trees is so long, but there are still people who like this kind of tree very much, and even many parks have cultivated ginkgo trees, but through grafted ginkgo trees, flowering and fruiting can be achieved in advanceIt will be able to blossom and bear fruit in about 10 years.
If cultivation and planting are carried out normally, then the time will be slightly longer,It takes about 20 years for it to start flowering and bearing fruitThe stout ginkgo trees that you usually see outside have grown for more than 100 years, and there are even thousands of years old.
If you want the ginkgo tree to bloom and bear fruit earlyIn fact, there are three ways to sow seedsGinkgo trees can be sown in large quantities, the first is the ordinary artificial cultivation method, through artificial pollination, so that the ginkgo trees produce more fruits, and then the ginkgo trees grow in the second year, and then transplant after they come out.
Another way,It is the use of the rod plug method is more troublesomeIt is necessary to pick strong branches first, and then cultivate, and the cultivation environment is also very harsh, once the requirements are not met, the grafting of ginkgo trees will fail.
The last way is to divide the plantThis is also a very common method, usually in mid to late September, the buds that grow will be cut off from the mother plant, and then cultivated and propagated separately.
Although the ginkgo tree is good, the fruit on the roadside is also easy not to eatBecause the fruit is untreated, if you want to taste it, you can eat some of the processed fruit. This can ensure your safety to a certain extent, and at the same time, you can avoid poisoning due to eating toxin-containing fruits.
I hope that while enjoying the beautiful scenery of ginkgo trees in the future, you should also pay attention to these fruits, and remember that things on the side of the road do not easily enter your mouth, which is the way to ensure your safety. **10,000 Fans Incentive Plan
