Maple seed is usually harvested in the autumn, when the seed matures from green to yellow or brown. Specific harvest times vary depending on the type of maple tree, geographic location and climatic conditions of the year. The following is some detailed information about the harvest of maple seed:
Observation of changes in the colour of seeds: an important indicator of the maturity of the seed is the change in its colour. Most of the seed mammoths mature from green to yellow, brown or red. Once the seeds are discovered to change colour, they can be prepared for harvest。
Check the hardness of the seeds: in addition to the colour, the maturity of the seeds can also be judged by squeezing them lightly. Growing seeds should feel tougher than soft。
Note the timing of collection: the timing is before the seeds are fully mature but not yet naturally released. If the waiting period is too long, mature seeds may be scattered with the wind or eaten by birds and other animals。
The timing of harvests may vary from one species to another:
Method of harvesting: seeds can be dropped by hand by hand or by hitting a branch with a long pole. For seeds on the ground, clean and clean areas should be selected for collection, avoiding mixing with weed seeds or other impurities。
Post-harvest treatment: post-harvest seed of maple trees needs to be dryed in a timely manner to prevent mold. It may then be decided whether to sow or keep it until the spring of the following year, depending on the demand for cultivation. Long-term preservation needs to be kept dry and in a low-temperature environment。
Attention: when collecting wild maple seeds, please comply with local laws and regulations and do not over-harvest so as not to affect ecological balance。
Knowledge of the specific types of maple trees planted and their growth habits, together with local climatic conditions, and rationalization of the harvest time of seeds will ensure access to high-quality maple seeds。
