Harvest wheat a few days after Xiaoman.

Harvest the wheat in 0/5 days after harvest.

Generally, wheat can't be harvested immediately after 15 days. At this time, the wheat has begun to be full, but it is not yet mature, which is about the late stage of milk ripening, so it is called Xiaoman, which is not yet full. In the last period of Xiaoman, wheat began to mature. Because the harvest time of wheat is mostly from late May to mid-June. Corresponding to the solar terms, the full moon in the 24 solar terms is generally on May 2 1 day in the solar calendar. Therefore, wheat will not be harvested until around June 6.
