Guide to the best and correct picking method for tea picking what are the picking criteria for tea

For those who have brewed the original leaf tea, it is not difficult to find that the shape of the tea after brewing is a piece of leaves, but have you carefully observed the size and structure of the leaves and other factors?

It is important to know that the manufacturing process of black tea requires a lot of machines, of which only Yuqing is a step that still depends on manual operation.

The part picked when you are green is the new bud of tea and the 2-3 new buds below, and the stem should be retained.

Among them, one stem with two leaves, we call it "two leaves of one heart"; one stem with three leaves, we call it "three leaves of one heart".

From the number of terminal buds above the branch buds of the tea tree, the third leaf is called the Mother Leaf. Because the top of the branch has a new bud of 5 to 6 mm, the mother leaf is used to represent the gestation of this new bud.

When picking the clover, if you don't carefully cut down the Mother Leaf, there will be only a long and large leaf at the bottom, which is shaped like a fish, so it is also called "Fish Leaf".

When picking the Fish Leaf, you should also pick it along with the new buds next to it (the correct way should be cut off from the edge of the new buds), so as to avoid the waste of nutrients absorbed by the tea trees and enable the new buds at the top to grow.

The tea tree in Sri Lanka grows so fast after picking it that it only takes about 20 days to go green again.

If the leaves are picked in the wrong position and the stems with buds are still a few centimeters left, the nutrients will be lost from the cross-section, and the nutrients will not be smoothly transported to the buds, resulting in a slowdown in the growth of tea. At this time, it may take 30 to 40 days for the next green, which takes twice as long.

Not only that, the tea produced has become fragile and of poor quality, which can not be used to make high-quality black tea.

Therefore, green people not only need to pick tea in the best way, but also must build leaves or withered leaves that do not grow well, so as to create conditions suitable for the growth of new buds.

If the technology of Yuqing is not good, it will have a great impact on the growth of tea, so it can be seen that the responsibility of Yuqing is very important.
