Fern Orlyak. Billet in the Leningrad region

This year, the growing fern was delayed for a week due to the cold start of May. Several of my acquaintances even panicked - they say, there will be no fern in general. But now the very season. Last weekend, we collected 25 kilograms of fern in four hours! It is not only for yourself - it will have to give out, "Pavel Zhirnov shared, Candidate of Agricultural Sciences, Senior State Inspector of the Rosselkhoznadzor in the Trans-Baikal Territory and the Amur Region.

When collecting

The fern will be "in the juice" by about 10 June, and then irrevocably calls. Fern sprouts (academic - rahis) need to tear up to dissolution of the first leaflets. Then the plant becomes too bitter, and no salting will no longer help, the fern will become unsuitable for food. Young, not yet worried sprouts should simply be laid out with a slight crunch - this means that the fern is what it is necessary.

Where to looking for

Traditional places to collect fern in the vicinity of Blagoveshchensk: Sopgia along Novotroitsky and Ignatiev highway - in the area of \u200b\u200bcountry towns located there, in Mokhovaya Paddy. Of course, each experienced collector has its secret places, but also in an easily accessible hopes, it is so much so much that everyone has enough for all winter, "says Pavel Zhirnov.

The fern usually begins to get out of sobes on the southern slopes, closer to the vertices. But then, with warming, descends to the eastern and western slopes, and even in cold hollows - here it can be collected up to mid-June. The fern loves forest glads, and especially the borrowers. Where last year fell in the forest or field, fern usually most.

By the way, this is not a thermo-loving plant. It is growing hardly around the world, does not climb out in the mountains in the desert. In the Amur region, it can be found in the Amur region even in the zones of permafrost, for example in Tyndinsky district.

All will not delement

The collection of ferns by Amuritsa annually does not exceed five percent of the total stock, so it does not cause damage to the form. But the fern need to collect with the mind, tearing off at no more than one fifth of the plants on each glade, otherwise for the next year you will be fruitless for the next year.

Unfortunately, the collection of fern in the Amur region is not put on the industrial basis. But the inhabitants of Southeast Asia fern love, he is present in China, Japan's kitchens, both Korea.

Reader on note

Japanese taught us to fern

Annunciations until the end of the seventies about fern and the layers did not hear. Only Evenks were collected by experienced Taiga. But then massively began to buy a fern through the Russian Far East of the Japanese. Officially, through the enterprises of Soviet trade. Annunciation fern changed the scarce Japanese clothes.

By the middle of the eighties, almost every Annunciation family received a gift from the state of six acres. Then the fern entered our diet already finally - to assemble it next to the site did not constitute problems. And with the appearance of dozen cafe of Chinese cuisine in the city ... Now a rare festive feast is done without a fern salad on the table.

What to be afraid during the collection

First, ticks. Now they are in the forest Pond Prudi. Bite - already unpleasant, and here are also experts Rospotrebnadzor They found ticks infected with encephalitis right in the Blagoveshchensky district. Sick for the fern - prepare well. It is necessary to wear dense clothes that protect the ankles and wrists, a headdress. And enjoy special anti-splash repellents.

Another danger, especially when walking through the forest along the Novotroitsky highway, is an unexploded ammunition. This is now a bunk polygon well fenced and carefully checked. And in Soviet times, there were many and how it fell.

I myself, gathering a fern in the student's student in the area of \u200b\u200b32 km of Novotroitsky highway, stumbled upon a whole glade of flashing inert shells from BMP-1. It was fun to collect the shoots of Orlyak among those who protruding here and there from the ground of shiny aluminum shanks of shells. I was told that one mushroom in the 1980s found a combat anti-tank mine near the village of Canton-Commune and managed to blow it up, shot because of the shelter from the hunting rifle, "Pavel Zhirnov told. - The main rule in such situations is not to touch! No matter how much I wanted to see.
