Professor Song looked at them as if they were greedy ghosts.
Song Tan felt wronged: "I did as you instructed, 500 strawberry plants per unit of land, with a fluctuation of 50 plants more or less."
They had only added 50 more plants, spread over two units of land, which is really nothing.
Professor Song: ...In plain terms, one was equating to two of other people's. They've been farming since spring and summer, they really shouldn't be so inexperienced. But they had previously grown vegetables, like cucumbers and cowpeas, and planting those denser, just extending the trellis would solve the issue.
For peppers, eggplants, and the like, grown outdoors with sturdy stems underneath for ventilation, so there wasn't much of a problem.
But strawberries are different!
They already have a somewhat creeping growth habit, and now they're in greenhouses, where the ventilation conditions can't compare to those outdoors. The leaves are piled upon leaves, flowers upon flowers.
