When is the best time to pick tea seeds?

1. Because small-seed camellia oleifera is mostly cold dew seeds, the suitable picking time is about 10 month, while large-seed camellia oleifera and common camellia oleifera are mostly first frost seeds and should be picked after the first frost. It is understood that Yuanzhou District of Jiangxi, Yichun, Fuyang of Hunan and other places emphasize strengthening the management of camellia oleifera picking, and start picking after cold dew.

2. The maturity of Camellia oleifera seeds is generally related to geographical location and fertilizer and water conditions: generally, the planting on sunny slopes is earlier than that on shady slopes, and the planting in low altitude areas is later than that in high altitude areas; Camellia oleifera seeds with good fertilizer and water conditions should mature late, but they have high oil content and good quality. Camellia oleifera seeds with poor soil fertility and less fertilization should be precocious, and the quality of Camellia oleifera seeds is poor.

3. The maturity of Camellia oleifera seeds is also related to climate. If it is cold and rainy, the maturity of Camellia oleifera seeds may be delayed, so it should be picked according to the maturity of varieties. In addition, the same variety of Camellia oleifera should be picked within a week.
