Detailed Explanation of Licorice Harvesting and Processing Methods (1)
Key Technical Measures for High-Yield Cultivation Choose fertile, loose-textured, well-drained sandy loam soil for planting. Treat the seeds before sowing to improve the germination rate, water the seedlings to keep them alive, and apply sufficient phosphorus and potassium fertilizer every early spring. Harvesting and Processing 1. Harvesting Licorice propagated from seed generally grows for 4 years after sowing, while that propagated from rhizomes can be harvested after 3 years of growth. Harvesting in autumn each year is best. When harvesting, dig up the licorice roots and rhizomes, shake off the soil, and set them aside for processing. 2. Processing Method Dig

Detailed Guide to Harvesting and Processing Licorice Root (Part Two)
For seed propagation, harvest after 3 to 4 years; for rhizome and division propagation, harvest after 2 to 3 years. Digging can be done from late autumn to early winter and before spring sprouting. Those dug in autumn are the best, with a high glycyrrhizic acid content and a firm texture. After the licorice is dug out, clean off the soil, remove the stem base, branches and fibrous roots, cut into sections of appropriate length, sun-dry until half dry, tie into small bundles, then sun-dry until completely dry.
