Chapter 10 : Turnip

Presently, we are raising turnips.

From the temperature, it is roughly August. The turnips are growing up quickly and healthily.

Turnips are a plant that are easy to plant and can grow big in approximately 60 days.

In other words, it can be said that it was ideal for us.

As for this turnip, rather than for the sake of eating, it is more useful for putting it to the side to feed the goats and cow.

By the way, it can be said that the cultivation of a turnip was favorable for the time being. If I say that, it is inflexible.......

"Leader! There are also bugs here!" (While Ron is turning over a leaf)

"Uwa, seriously?" (while Roswald peeks in)

"There is no end to this." (while Soyon mutters with a sigh) (TL:check)

"Hii!!" (while Tetora screams lightly)

"....." (Gram silently takes a step and crushes it.)

It is that kind of feeling.

After all, the location in the forest might be bad as expected.

It is a pest heaven.

I take care of it as soon as I find it, but there is no end. I also feel sick.

Anyway, there are a lot of insects around here. In the height of summer, the thicket of mosquitos are also energetically active. It couldn't help but be annoying.

However, I finally found a breakthrough plan!!

"Look at this."

"What is it?"

"This flower's name is [Dalmatian Pyrethrum]. Common name is Pyrethrum."

This flower includes a insecticidal activity ingredient called Pyrethroid. (TL: is this true?)

It is a natural insecticide. Because the action is light, Pyrethroid is safe for mammals.

By the way, it is a material for mosquito-repellent incense.

Because the original place of Pyrethrum is the Mediterranean sea coast; can we possibly grow it? I will think of a solution while I look for it. This world sometimes has strange people (griffon), but the vegetation is almost basically the same as back on earth.

"I found the colony. I have reached a conclusion that the insect will surely disappear; if I sprinkle it on the turnip.

"Is it good with only applying that? That is good. Full approval."

Tetora said joyfully. She has insectophobia.

"Seriously? Then it's all good. Let's go pick it up at once."

Ron also agreed.

Everyone seems to have no objection. However, it is natural.

"Then, let's go!"

I went to the field of flowers at once.

We silently pick flowers in the flower garden.

Though the scene is very romantic, but it is used in an insecticide.

It is a little surreal.

"Tetora, this."

I hand Tetora the Chrysanthemum, which I made in a bouquet form. With this both hands are empty. (TL:check)

"Oh! Wh-why so suddenly......"

Tetora's face reddened for some reason. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
