《天工开物·上篇·乃粒》
靠近湖边的田地，要等到夏季洪水过后，大约六月份才能插秧的。其秧苗应在立夏时节播种，还要播在地势较高的秧田里，等汛期过后才插秧。
湖滨之田，待夏潦已过，六月方栽者，其秧立夏播种，撒藏高亩之上，以待时也。
The fields near the lake should be transplanted after the summer flood, around June. Its seedlings should be sown at the beginning of summer, and they should also be sown in a nursery with higher terrain, and transplanted after the flood season.
