Maintenance of the Coffee Plantillos - Development of the bean - The red bean
Picture:
Not
all green beans will ripen at the same time, making picking the
beans even more of a skilled work, since only the red beans can
be picked for a quality harvest. As can be seen in this picture,
beans mature at different times, in this branch you see the majority
of the beans are red and ready to be harvested, but there are
some green beans still on the branch. These green beans will have
to wait until the next round of picking in this plantillo. Normally
the second round of picking is the one that produces the greatest
harvest of the season. The reason that beans mature at different
times is that not all the coffee bloomed at the same time.
