When can I pick bayberry?

The picking time of bayberry is usually around May.

Yangmeiduo picked it around the Dragon Boat Festival. Myrica rubra ripens earlier in areas with lower altitude and higher temperature. Otherwise, it will be too late. However, the mountainous areas above 1000 meters above sea level mature relatively late, some are lower in May of the lunar calendar, and a few are postponed to June of the lunar calendar.

Matters needing attention in waxberry picking:

1, it is best to wear dark or old clothes when picking Myrica rubra, otherwise bright fruit juice will easily be stained on clothes, and attention should be paid to prevent insect bites.

2. Myrica rubra can be picked and sent directly to the mouth. Bugs dare not touch bayberry, and the rain and dew in the forest have bactericidal effect.

3. Pay attention to safety when picking bayberry on the mountain, and don't climb too high. The taller the bayberry grows, the more delicious it is. If you want to pick the branches of Myrica rubra growing on the top of the tree, you'd better ask the owner of the orchard for a bamboo hook. You can start by carefully pulling the branch over, but be careful, because the branches of Myrica rubra are particularly fragile and easy to break.

4. When picking Myrica rubra, don't pick it with branches, because it will affect the growth of Myrica rubra in the coming year; When picking bayberries, be careful not to pick them one by one greedily, but one by one.

5, to speed up the picking, it is best to bring scissors; Purple bayberry is ripe. It is best to cut it gently along the branches with scissors, but don't leave the handle too long, so as not to damage other bayberry in the fruit basket. When picking, you can put a layer of bayberry and then use a layer of leaves to prevent mutual harm.
