There is an inexplicable saliva on the leaves of the peach tree, who is playing a prank?

It's peach gum. The light red and yellow viscous liquid prepared by chemical reaction of peach tree oil secreted from peach trees is further dried and crushed into solid granules, which is a light red and yellow transparent solid natural gum. Harvested in summer and autumn, its composition is roughly the same as that of gum arabic, and the natural peach gum varies in size and size, and some are mixed with impurities.

The secretion of peach gum is mainly due to the damage of the trunk of the peach tree or the infection of the fungus, it is the self-defense mechanism of the peach tree, the general fruit farmers call it the flow gum disease, the high incidence is from June to August every year, it is led by the fungus, the rainfall will spread the fungus, as the temperature rises, the tree body flow gum point increases, the disease is gradually serious, the flow gum part is easy to be infected by saprophytes, so that the peach bark and wood become brown and rot, resulting in the weakening of the tree, when it is serious, the branch or the whole plant will die.

This is not saliva but a bacterial perforation disease of the peach, and the leaves are soaked in water at the beginning of the disease with yellowish-white to white spots. After forming a round, polygonal or irregular shape, it is purple-brown to dark brown, about 2-4 mm in diameter, surrounded by a yellow-green halo, and then withers and falls off into perforations.

No one is mischievous, this is its own gelatinous substance on the leaves of the peach tree, even on the trunk of the peach tree, we call it peach gum, peach gum has beauty and beauty. Efficacy.

I have seen an object in the shape of foam like saliva in the leaves or grass, and there is no trace of anyone walking in this vicinity, who spit this saliva? Some say it's a snake spit, but others think it's left by a snail or slug. Farmers should be aware of this phenomenon, and saliva-like foam can often be seen on some tree roots and grass leaves in the wild.

It seems that we have really wronged snakes, but in fact, most of this saliva in the wild is spit out by insects of the cicada family. There are about 2,000 species of insects in the Foam Cicada family, and the common one is the red pattern cicada, which is also called the adult cuckoo or foam worm because of its spitting. The secretions of cicada larvae first form mixed mucus in the epidermal glands of the 7th and 8th segments of the abdomen, then flow into air foam through special valves in the abdomen, and finally form a saliva-like foam body.

This needle-like foam plays a very important role for the nymphs of cicadas. It can prevent dryness and damage from natural enemies. Insects spitting in the wild may sound a little cute, but this insect can be a pest, and the common rice cicada and Liu's intestinal hairy cicada are important rice pests.

The damage of the rice cicada to the rice is manifested by absorbing the sap of the upper leaves of the rice, and the leaves stabbed by the rice cicada initially form angled spots between the main vein and the edge of the leaves, and then the whole leaf gradually turns yellow. Different from the harm of rice seedling cicadas, most of the harm of Liu and Zhang Dou cicadas to rice appeared behind the tip of the leaf in the early stage, and extended rapidly along the edge of the leaf, and all the leaves withered except for the midrib in the middle stage, and the whole leaf was yellow and withered in the later stage, showing soil red. When I was a child, when I played in the fields or mountains, I often saw a lot of white foam on the leaves, a lot of white foam in the grass on the ridges, and raspberry leaves in the countryside.

And these white foams look like saliva, and the children are very curious and ask their grandparents what it is. The answer usually obtained is snake saliva. Poisonous, don't touch it.

But is that really snake saliva?

When you grow up, you find that snakes don't spit. Venomous snakes have only venom glands in their mouths and no salivary glands anymore, and non-venomous snakes have no venom glands and salivary glands at all in their mouths, so they don't produce that white foam at all. So what exactly is the saliva-white foam?

Tree frogs are much smaller in size than regular frogs. Unlike other frogs, which lay their eggs in the water, tree frogs choose plants close to water sources as their spawning sites during the spawning season. The eggs of the tree frog look like much rounder white foam.

A closer look reveals that these foams are actually the eggs of tree frogs. Tree frog eggs usually hatch for about a week, and the tadpoles that hatch are brought into the water to grow according to the rain.

It's not who vomited, it's because of pests and diseases in the plant. Plant insecticides should be used in a timely manner, evenly sprayed on plant leaves, and do not water temporarily during the medication, otherwise it will reduce the efficacy of the drug, and you can spray it several times to consolidate it.

This is because the peach tree is sick because of the prolonged rain, which causes the leaves to be too wet, so it has bacterial perforation disease.

This is because of the special structure of the peach tree, and such saliva will occur when it is about to bloom and bear fruit.

These saliva is the fluid secreted by the peach tree, also known as peach gum, which is a traditional Chinese medicine.

This saliva is actually peach gum.

There are some things that we may see when we are children when they think it is useless, but when we grow up, we find that it is a treasure, such as a slimy thing that we love to pick and play on the peach tree when we were young, when we were young, we don't know what it is, but we just think it's fun, but we don't know that the nutritional value of this kind of thing is very high, which is what we often call peach gum.

When will there be peach gum? I believe that the friends in the countryside know that generally after the peach is ripe or after the rain, there will be a lot of peach tips on the tree, and the peach pulp that grows after the rain, it is very crystal clear, of course, some peach gum is also orange, we used to like to play with peach gum, but now peach gum has become a very popular nutritional product, and many female friends are no strangers to this kind of thing.

How to make peach gum? The taste will be better, in fact, you can put some milk in it when making peach gum, it looks good in style and tastes good, especially female friends especially like peach gum, because the effect of peach gum in beauty is quite good, why peach gum will grow on peach trees? In fact, everything must have its reason for the appearance of things.

The function of peach gum is to promote the healing of branches, so peach gum also has a very big role, that is, to help the branches heal, and its own viscosity is also relatively strong, you may wish to try to pick some fresh peach gum, it is difficult to tear it off when you play with it.

Because there is a large demand for peach gum now, there are many people who specialize in planting peach trees, and the dust state is to be able to collect peach gum, and the peach gum grown under natural conditions is worth a lot of money.

The reason why this **Pai Qingyuan will be faster and faster must be because everyone has demand, which is of course because more and more people know the benefits of peach gum, so its demand will be**.

When we make peach gum, the first step we need to do is to soak it in water, and in the process of soaking, it will become soft, because there will inevitably be some impurities on the peach gum picked from the peach tree, so only after soaking it softly, can the impurities in it be picked out.

After picking it out, you can cook it in the pot, you can put some milk in it when cooking, or you can put some when you cook porridge, and secondly, you can also put some peach gum when you stew soup, which is a pretty good choice, if you like it, you may wish to buy it and try it.
