First Time Flax Growers Get Harvest Advice in Mills County
Farmers in Mills County grow flax for the first time and seek guidance on when and how to harvest. Iowa State College bulletins advise harvest begins when bolls are ripe and the stem upper portion turns yellow, with full harvest as the aroma turns golden. In wet or late plantings, growers should use judgment to maximize ripe yield, sometimes cutting earlier or later as conditions dictate. Harvest methods vary, including winders similar to grains but with reduced bundle tension for flax.
