Someone has started harvesting! ! This is the rhythm of grabbing. Now people pay more and more attention to health care, and they also have more and more leisure time to buy health care things. As a recognized healthy plant, wormwood is now loved by many city dwellers and farmers, so it is very likely that wormwood will start harvesting as soon as it grows.

In fact, there is not much value in picking wormwood now. If you like to eat green meatballs made of wormwood, it is understandable to choose some dishes now, but if they are used for drying and storage, and reserved for soaking feet for one year or other health protection purposes, it will be many days earlier.

There is plenty of rain this year. Up to now, wormwood has grown quite tall, but it is too immature. It should be said that its nutritional value has not yet reached the best time. Harvesting at this time is tantamount to wasting resources. Old farmers who really understand wormwood will not choose to grab the harvest at this time. The drying effect is not good, and it is of little significance to waste time and energy.

Then someone asked, when should wormwood be harvested in April this year? In response to this question, I specially asked the old ladies in the village. Old ladies in their eighties laughed at me: April crops are not harvested according to the solar terms, because the solar terms will be postponed, so you still harvest wormwood around the Dragon Boat Festival. You still have no experience.

Yes, if the wheat was harvested in April before, but the wheat could not be harvested in the first four months of this year, it would have been possible to wear summer clothes in the last four months. In April this year, the temperature was abnormal. Basically, it was hot for one or two days, and it was cold for four or five days, so clothes were worn indiscriminately. Old people are right. The solar term has been postponed. We should not question the harvest time of wormwood. The harvest of wormwood during the Dragon Boat Festival remains unchanged.

Today is April 24 of the lunar calendar, and there is still one month and ten days before the Dragon Boat Festival. Let wormwood continue to grow for a month. At that time, you can harvest wormwood at the best time: three days before the Dragon Boat Festival and four days after it.

It is best to bundle the harvested wormwood into dozens of small bundles and hang them in a cool and ventilated place where conditions permit. Have you ever seen how to hang wormwood in the countryside during the Dragon Boat Festival? Tie them all up, pass through the knocker, hang them up and store them for a few days.

In other words, the best way is to hang it and dry it. It doesn't need to be dried in strong sunlight. You can choose a ventilated backyard and a place with little sunshine. After drying, cut into pieces and put into plastic bags or cartons, which can be used all year round.
