The timing for planting potatoes, let alone watermelons and cantaloupes, had not yet arrived.
Potatoes and watermelons typically went into the ground toward the end of March, while cantaloupes were a bit earlier. Combining them within the same planting period was also an option.
The present time was ideal for thorough land excavation and deep plowing.
When the watermelons and cantaloupes ripened, Songshi would take charge of selling them. If circumstances turned challenging, he could always turn to Zhao Shu for assistance. Even if Zhao Shu wasn't in the capital, there would be individuals present to manage such matters.
Qiao Xuan meticulously conveyed all these instructions to Songshi, who would put them into action as soon as the weather improved. Of all the crops, potatoes held a special importance, and Qiao Xuan had emphasized this.
