1. When raising silkworms, how to use the square cluster to cocoon silkworms correctly?

Using square clusters for cocooning is a common method at present. Silkworm farmers can reuse the square clusters, and the operation is very simple. The use of square clusters also requires particularity. If used improperly, double-palace cocoons may appear, lowering the overall quality of the cocoons. Let me talk about two methods of cocooning.

When clustering, the square clusters need to be hung. We need to tie two pieces of square clusters with thin bamboo poles in advance to facilitate hanging them up.

Manual method

First, place the tied squares flat on a smooth ground or a ground covered with film. They can be placed in a single layer or five or six pieces can be placed together. Before the silkworms go on the cocoon, after feeding them molting hormone, about eight hours later, spread a large plastic silkworm net on the silkworm seat. After the mature silkworms gradually climb onto the net, the net can be removed.

Then gently shake the squares to make the mature silkworms fall onto them. Then lift the cocoon pieces one by one and hang them on the cocoon rack, with each piece about 12 cm apart, so that ventilation is better.

Automatic method

In comparison, some steps of the automatic cocooning method are similar to those of the manual method, and the preliminary treatment is basically the same. Before cocooning, sprinkle a small amount of short-cut non-toxic straw on the silkworm seat, then cover it with a plastic woven silkworm net, and then place the square cocoon flat on the silkworm seat. After the mature silkworms climb onto the square cocoon, lift them up and hang them on the cocoon rack. At this time, some silkworms are still in the silkworm seat, and those mature silkworms that have not been cocooned need to be manually operated to cocoon, that is, directly grab them and put them on with hands.

When cocooning, you need to pay attention to many details to ensure that the cocooning process is smoother, such as preventing silkworm urine contamination, excessive humidity, etc. It is best to use the pre-cocooning method, that is, hang the cocooning pieces with mature silkworms on the shelves in the shaded places such as the entrance of the silkworm room and the corridor, and move them into the cocooning room for protection after 80% or more of the mature silkworms have entered the holes. This method can ensure that there are no urine stains on the cocoons and that the hardness meets the standards of high-quality cocoons.

In addition, the light level in the cluster room should not be too high. Clustering is the prerequisite for cocooning. Only by grasping every detail of the clustering process can the quality of the cocoons obtained be good.

The use of square clusters also requires particularity. If used improperly, double-palace cocoons may appear, lowering the overall quality of the cocoons. Let me talk about two methods of cocooning.

Catching silkworms and placing them on the cluster: First, spread plastic film on the ground, spread the double-linked cluster sheet flat on the film, and use the macroporous film to collect the appropriately mature silkworms, with 320 silkworms spread on each cluster sheet. After the mature silkworms have crawled and scattered on the cluster sheet (about 10-20 minutes), lift the cluster sheet and move it to the parallel long bamboo poles at the bottom of the cluster rack. The distance between the cluster sheets is 12 cm. After the lower layer is full, move them up layer by layer in order, and keep the upper and lower cluster sheets aligned in a straight line. After most of the mature silkworms have entered the hole and urinated (about 24 hours after placing them on the cluster), remove the bedding.

You can choose to raise the silkworms in a hanging manner, or place them on a plastic film. You must ensure the density of the silkworms, ventilate them in time, and provide enough food.

2. Dear silkworm farmers, does anyone know where to buy an automatic cocoon picking machine?

Steps to raising silkworms: 1. Place the silkworm eggs in a box and wait for them to hatch. The most suitable temperature is 25°C - 28°C. If the temperature is lower, you can cover the box with a lid. 2. Newly hatched silkworms must be taken care of with special care and fed with relatively tender leaves. 3. Silkworms do not eat or move when they hibernate. On the surface, they are sleeping, but in fact they are shedding their old skin and putting on new skin to continue growing. Silkworms molt four times during the entire breeding process. Each time they molt, they do not eat or move. At this time, try not to disturb them, and do not throw them away thinking they are sick. Each hibernation period of silkworms lasts about one day.

3. Automatic playback of videos on the space homepage

This is impossible. You have to click play.

4. How can I make the photo album I made in 56 play automatically when I put it in the space?

Hello, friend. After making a video in 56, click "Repost to" below the video to copy the FLASH address of the video, and then you can add the FLASH module to the space.

First copy the module address, then open the space, click Decorate Space, add or delete modules, create a new module, FALSH module, paste the module address, remember to remove the original http:// in the address bar first, select None for border, select Transparent FALSH in More Settings, Autoplay, Loop (remember to check Autoplay), click the small triangle in the lower right corner of the module to drag the module to the appropriate size, and then you can save it.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. If you are satisfied with my answer, I hope you can adopt it as the answer. Your help will encourage us to better serve other friends. Have a good time.
