What does the sign mean when you saw that during the day the dandelion flowers closed? In fact, a lot (however, for those who often rest in nature, this is not an innovation).
If the inflorescences of dandelions are closed: signs
Even in the days of our ancestors, when there were no TVs and experts who would accurately determine the weather, people learned to predict it, observing changes in nature, animal behavior, etc. All living plants are trying to hide from bad weather and bad weather. This is especially known for avid summer residents.
With the advent of heat and the first rays of the summer sun, dandelions begin to bloom, one of its first harbingers. In the daytime, they delight the eyes with their bright color, and in the evening - go to bed and close their buds. These flowers at the same time open their petals, and then at the same time close them. This is a kind of flower clock. For them, you can determine with accuracy which hour now (if you know exactly in which the sun rises in an hour and when it comes in).
What does it mean sign when the dandelion petals are closed during the day? The belief says - it is expected to rain. This will be, by the way, if you relax in nature, you should stock up on umbrellas or complete a walk.
- When a dandelion in the form of a white and fluffy ball in front of a thunderstorm, the wind will not be able to tear the seeds from it. And you will not succeed either.
- If thunderclouds have flown, but the dandelion did not close the inflorescences during the day, the sign says - there is no rain.
- The weather will change to cold if the dandelion closes inflorescences during the day, as the popular sign says.
A sign of the maturity of dandelions is the transformation of yellow buds into white fluffy balls. These white parachuticians can also predict rain. If they easily give seeds, it will soon be rain, because during the rain they will get wet and will no longer be able to spread in the air.
Scientific explanation of signs about the closed inflorescences of dandelion during the day
There are beliefs that are subject to the laws of nature. This applies to dandelions.
There is such a meaning - nastia (movement) - this is the movement of leaflets, buds, plants of plants that are affected by air, rain and other weather conditions. This movement also depends on the state of the environment. Such an example can be sunflower. They turn their flower in the direction where the sun shines.
In addition to these concepts, I also exist and others:
- Thermonastia - changes associated with environmental temperature.
- Photo -names - Changes related to lighting.
- Nicthinastia - changes that are simultaneously associated with temperature and lighting. They occur at night when the flowers are strewn.
Dandelion refers to photo -names. He is able to open the petals when the lighting changes or when the sun rises. There are plants that have the opposite reaction, fragrant tobacco can be attributed to this.
Environmental temperature does not affect dandelion in any way. When changing lighting the dandelion closes the inflorescences And he goes to bed, because there was less light, and not from the fact that the evening had come.
The same reaction to the sky -covered sky. Dandelions feel this and turn off from a lack of sunlight. This is where the belief follows. If you take a flashlight on a cloudy day and shine on a dandelion, it will begin to open after a while.
They cannot foresee the approach of cold weather, since this factor does not affect them. They can bloom when it is cold outside, but the sun shines quite well and brightly. They belong to moisture resistant plants, so they also do not react to dampness. Perhaps it is just not given to people to see it.
Beliefs work as a whole in completely according to the laws: clouds flew and closed the sun for a long time that the dandelion could not quickly close the petals, it will most likely be rain. Do not forget to capture the umbrella.
Dandelions cannot be attributed to unmistakable barometers. Sometimes weather changes and light do not act on them and they make mistakes:
- The evening is approaching. In some parts of the planet, dandelions close their inflorescences at 3 pm, when the street is still quite light.
- They multiply and grow in high grass, where it is quite dark. However, it can be quite difficult for them in these places.
People and dandelions have different concepts when you have to go to bed. For these flowers, sleep time comes already at three hours, when we are still awake and do not want to go to bed at all. But they wake up early enough when six have not yet struck. It is at this moment that the correct forecasts will be whether it will be rain today or not.
Not everywhere now you can find dandelions, especially in summer cottages, because gardeners are fighting these parasites, since they multiply quite quickly. In this case, the weather can be predicted by observing crocus.
When the cooling is approaching, they close their petals, and when they feel that it will rain, they lower the buds. Clover also feels the approximation of the heat, lowering the leaf and collecting them in a heap. When it becomes cold, on the contrary it straightens. Plants perceive the change of weather conditions better than us.
