Matters needing attention in honeysuckle picking and processing

With the deepening of people's understanding of honeysuckle, more and more farmers have joined the ranks of honeysuckle cultivation. Let's talk about the matters needing attention in honeysuckle picking and processing. Please look below.

The flower picking time is from 9 am to noon 12. If there is dew and rainy days are not suitable, you can choose one with drying equipment. The flowers collected in the morning have strong fragrance, high commodity rate and good quality.

When picking, use bamboo baskets or rattan cages instead of plastic bags or cartons to prevent hot flashes, fermentation of enzymes and protein in the body, discoloration and mildew. Buds and flower tissues must be handled gently to avoid hand pressure affecting quality.

According to the principle of water-removing machine, the drum is lengthened to 5 meters and heated with coal or firewood. The front part of the drum is heated to a high temperature for inactivation, and the second part is braised and dried once by waste heat. Flowers must be treated in time after harvest. Flowers harvested on the same day must be treated on the same day.

Honeysuckle processing must be carried out in the process of picking flowers and drying in the sun, so as to separate according to quality, collect impurities at any time and produce more first-class products. Flowers must be separated when processing, otherwise the quality and price of first-class products will be affected.
