When was the wheat harvested? Autumn? ...

Wheat is harvested from mid-July to late August.

Generally, the wheat in the north is mature, and the harvest is completed from mid-July to late August.

In the northernmost Daxinganling region, wheat ripens in mid-August at the earliest and in early September at the latest.

The northern region is cold, and wheat can't survive winter, so spring wheat can only be planted. Spring wheat is generally sown from south to north from Qingming to mid-May.

Generally, the best period of artificial harvest is the end of wax ripening, when the dry matter accumulation of wheat grains reaches the peak, so it is the best period of artificial harvest in dry farming with good quality, high yield and complete physiological maturity.

Take out the wheat grains and draw them with your fingers. If they are waxy, it means that the wax maturity is 2-3 days earlier than the full maturity.
