The viewers in the live stream were completely impressed by Chen Hao's professional knowledge.

"Host, are you a PhD in botany? You explain each flower in such detail, from its variety and habits to its propagation methods, medicinal value, and flower language. You know everything."

"The key is that Tingting can understand it all. The host explains things in a simple and easy-to-understand way, which is perfect for children."

"This kind of education is a million times better than any early childhood education class."

"I've already taken screenshots of the care tips for every type of flower the host mentioned; they're so useful."

"Hey streamer, why don't you start an agricultural training course? I'll be the first to sign up."

In the garden, more than a dozen kinds of flower seedlings were planted neatly.

Roses are on the outermost side, lavender is in the middle, and peonies are on the innermost side, arranged at varying heights and with complementary colors.

Gardenias and jasmine were placed together, while the osmanthus seedlings, still small, were planted in a corner.

Bougainvillea leans against the courtyard wall, while hydrangeas occupy the other side of the semicircle.

I sowed seeds of sunflowers, impatiens, and morning glories, covered them with a thin layer of soil, and watered them.

The garden is starting to look nice and complete.

Chen Hao stood up, stretched his back, and then walked to the vegetable garden.

The vegetable garden consists of four square plots, each one meter wide and two meters long, and the cement paths between the plots were paved yesterday.

He first turned over the soil in each vegetable patch, applied base fertilizer—well-rotted farmyard manure—spread it evenly on the soil surface, and then turned it into the soil with a shovel.

[Ding! Fertilizing and preparing the vegetable garden is complete. God-level planting experience points +128!]

The first vegetable patch was planted with tomatoes and peppers.

Chen Hao picked up the tomato seedlings, twenty seedlings in total, two seedlings per group, with a spacing of forty centimeters.

He dug a hole in the ground, took the seedling out of the seedling pot, put it in the hole, backfilled it with soil, and gently compacted it.

"Tingting, tomatoes like warmth and are not cold-resistant."

The ideal temperature is between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius.

I love sunshine and need to sunbathe for at least eight hours every day.

The soil should be fertile, loose, and well-drained.

Tomatoes originated in South America, the place with the Amazon rainforest.

Originally, tomatoes were very small, like cherries. Later, through selective breeding, they became the large fruits we see today.

Tomatoes come in many colors—red, yellow, orange, green, and purple.

We planted the red ones, the most common variety.

Tomatoes are highly nutritious, rich in vitamin C and lycopene.

It can be eaten raw, stir-fried, or used in soup.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, tomato egg drop soup, tomato sauce, and tomato juice are all delicious.

"Tomato leaves have a smell; if you touch them, your hands will have a peculiar odor."

"Smell it."

Shen Xiaoting touched the tomato leaves, brought them closer to smell them, and wrinkled her nose: "It smells a bit bad."

"Yes, that's the taste."

This scent can repel insects.

Shen Xiaoting suddenly realized: "That's why insects don't like to eat tomatoes!"

"Yes, Tingting is really smart."

Chen Hao picked up the chili seedlings again.

Chili seedlings are shorter than tomato seedlings, and their leaves are smaller and thicker.

He dug holes and planted them one by one, spacing them 30 centimeters apart, a bit denser than tomatoes.

"Tingting, chili peppers like warmth and are afraid of frost."

I like sunshine, but I need to find some shade when it gets too hot in the summer.

It prefers loose, fertile sandy loam soil and cannot tolerate waterlogging.

"Chili peppers originated in Central and South America, and were introduced from there."

Chili peppers come in many shapes—long, short, round, pointed, and lantern-shaped.

The spiciness levels also vary; some are very spicy, while others are not.

"We grow bell peppers, which are not spicy and are suitable for children."

Chili peppers are also highly nutritious, rich in vitamin C, even more so than tomatoes.

Chili peppers can be stir-fried with meat, stir-fried with eggs, or used to make chili sauce.

"Chili pepper flowers are white, small, and beautiful."

The second vegetable patch is planted with cucumbers and green beans.

Cucumbers are produced from seeds and are sown directly.

Chen Hao used a shovel to dig a row of small holes in the vegetable patch, each hole two centimeters deep and forty centimeters apart.

He put cucumber seeds into the holes, two seeds in each hole, covered them with soil, and watered them thoroughly.

"Tingting, cucumbers like warmth, and the most suitable temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius."

It prefers sunlight but can also tolerate partial shade. The soil should be fertile and moist; cucumbers need plenty of water.

"Cucumbers originated in India, the place with many elephants."

The cucumber fruit is green, long and narrow, and has small prickles on its surface.

The cucumbers we eat are young; older cucumbers don't taste good because the seeds inside harden.

"Cucumbers can be eaten raw, in salads, stir-fried, or used in soups. Applying cucumber slices to the face can beautify the skin and replenish moisture."

"Cucumber vines can climb, so they need a trellis. When it grows up, Dad builds a trellis for it with bamboo poles, and it climbs up the trellis."

Shen Xiaoting clapped her hands: "Climb high!"

[Ding! Cucumber planting completed, God-level planting experience points +128!]

Then came the green beans.

Green beans are also seeds, so they can be sown directly.

Chen Hao dug holes and placed three seeds in each hole, with a spacing of thirty centimeters between them.

Cover with soil and water.

"Tingting, green beans like warmth and are not cold-hardy. They love sunshine and need plenty of light to flower and bear fruit. The soil should be fertile and well-drained."

"There are many kinds of beans—green beans, cowpeas, broad beans, and sword beans. We grow green beans, which can be grown several times a year. The beans are green, long, and contain beans."

"Green beans cannot be eaten raw; they must be cooked thoroughly. Raw green beans are poisonous and can cause stomach aches. Cooked green beans are delicious; they're great stir-fried with meat, dry-fried, or stewed with noodles."

"Green beans also climb vines, just like cucumbers, so they need trellises."

[Ding! Bean planting completed. God-level planting experience points +132!]

The third vegetable patch is planted with eggplants and corn.

The eggplants are seedlings, ten plants in total.

Chen Hao dug holes and planted them, spacing them fifty centimeters apart—eggplant plants are relatively large and need more space.
