Harvest timing and stacking for curving crops and nuts

Curled harvesting risks empty shells and shriveled kernels. If left too long, fodder leaves drop and much is wasted. Lift carefully in friable soil with hand or digger, shake soil from roots, then stack in swall benches or Geld. Open stacks form hollow circles to aid air, cure for weeks, then barn storage, with full curing lasting another month. Nuts must mature fully on the vines to avoid shriveled kernels.
