There are many functions of the gourd, in addition to being edible, it can also be used as a cultural play, there are many fans of the gourd, it is very cost-effective, and you can even harvest it after planting it yourself, process, play with it, and enjoy the process of turning it from a seed into a work of art, so let's talk about it today, what to do if the gourd has cracks.

In the first step, use 502 glue.

Gluing. The gourd is indeed very strong, but at the same time, it is very fragile. After a period of waiting and careful care from the freshly picked green gourd, it finally became more and more beautiful, and I also had feelings for it.

However, if it is a slight crack, it can still be remedied. You can choose to use 502 glue, because it is water quality, the penetration is very good, drip glue from the crack, let it slowly penetrate in, you can repair the crack.

The second step is grinding.

It's not just a drop of glue, if you want to make the gourd cracks not visible, polishing is very necessary. After the glue is dry, gently sanded with fine sandpaper until smooth, and then start to play, after a period of play, the cracks on the gourd are almost invisible. But if it is a more serious crack, then there is no need to remedy it.

Third, look at the extent of the cracks.

Some of them are due to the sun, and small cracks appear, which can be remedied. There is also some gourd will be broken at the waist, if the gourd faucet is still there, you can also use 502 glue for bonding, and then polish and polish the disc to play coloring. For the cultural play gourd, the most important thing is its faucet, there is no need to remedy it without a faucet, it is better to start with a new one.

In today's era, the gourd has gradually withdrawn from the ranks of living utensils, after all, the water scoop and the face scoop are still some distance from the hustle and bustle of the city. So the gourd turned to appear in another form, gourd silk, handicrafts and so on. But if the gourd is not kept properly, it will also have various problems, such as drying, cracking, and so on.

For the cracking phenomenon of the gourd, we have to make a decision according to the actual situation. If the gourd is cracked from the inside to the outside, from top to bottom, the gap is relatively large, which destroys the whole of the gourd. Then for such a situation, there is only one way to endure the pain and cut love.

If the cracking phenomenon of the hoist only forms a small range of cracks on the surface of the hoist and does not affect the overall situation, then it can be repaired. Then consider the specific reasons for the cracking of the gourd, and take measures according to the situation.

Generally, a good gourd should go through the process of glazing, oiling or frying at the same time as it is made, so that the inner and outer surfaces of the gourd can play a role in isolating the air and protecting the coating. As a plant, the gourd has to go through the process from seed to seedling to maturity and then to processing. Therefore, there are mainly congenital and acquired reasons for gourd cracking.

The congenital cause is that the gourd itself is defective, lacking some nutrients, causing cracking. The acquired cause lies in the processing method, climatic conditions, ambient temperature, etc., which causes cracking.

In view of the cracks in the hoist, we can use the method of adhesion. First clean the surface of the gourd with a brush, then wrap the gourd with a drawer cloth, cook it with high-temperature steam, use the characteristics of thermal expansion and cold contraction, make the gap appropriately larger, and then use cotton swabs or small objects to smear and glue at the gap. Then wrap it in a drawer cloth and wrap it around the crack with a rubber band.

Then put the gourd in the shade to cool down and complete the repair.

Gourd products are much more squeamish in comparison. So we have to be careful with every item of it. Can't be sloppy. Only by paying can we gain something.

First of all, look at the size of the gourd crack, if it is just a thin slit, it is relatively simple, first of all, the gourd is forcefully put on the gap. Quickly stick it with quick-drying glue dripping onto the gap.

There is no crack on the outside, but a depression can be seen. It means that the gourd is not growing enough and should be smoked. We can only wait and see if it develops. There's nothing else you can do. Blanching with hot water is not a good idea.

Cucurbits are easy to crack in dry winter, or after accidentally falling.

If the crack is small, does not leak air, and does not affect the appearance, it can be left untreated; Otherwise, you can use the common 502 glue on the market, carefully drop it into the crack, and dry it.

It should be noted that when instilling glue, you must be careful not to drip too much, otherwise the excess glue will condense and dry and be difficult to remove.

1. First of all, maintenance, avoid dry and cold air, and try to use the "mouthpiece gently against the lips and use the method of spitting" when playing.

"Avoid too much saliva into the gourd, do not mouthpiece, let alone bite. 2. Don't let the water of the gourd volatilize excessively, just start from the surface of the gourd to "lock" the moisture. You can use something like vegetable oil, and rub a little on the surface of the gourd to prevent water from evaporating, just a small amount.

3. Drop in when there is a small gap.

502 glue, 502 has the general penetration effect of water, after dripping, it is naturally dried, and the surface is gently scraped with a knife, which can ensure the normal use of the gourd for a long time.
