【24 Solar Terms】Time：2023-07-23 Source：本站 Views：4897
The Major Heat falls on July 22,23 or 24. As its name suggests this solar term ushers in a period much hotter than the Minor Heat. The sunshine reaches its maximum, and philotherm plants and crops thrive in the intense heat. The Major Heat is usually in the middle of the hottest dog days.
