You are correct! Or any other method you find that busts the pods and lets the seeds come out. Foot abrasion on a tarp upon a hard surface is good for larger batches (or my new plan: stuff 'em all into Brian's chipper shredder,…"

How is your flax coming along? Half my field dried down in early august and the other half still has green on a lot of the stalks even though the pods are mostly brown and brittle. Baffling. If I had a warm, dry spot where I could heap so…"
Susan Kroll and Sergio Moreno's discussion was featuredThe nitty-gritty: growing, harvesting, and processing grains and beans
Hi there! I am growing several different varieties of beans from seeds that Krista gave me, and flax as well. I've grown scarlet runners, yin-yang, and cranberry beans so I think I know how to grow and when to harvest the beans. Flax, however, is a different story! I believe that the seeds are in the little round seed pods and are harvested once the plant is dry, kind of like beans... am I correct?My goodness, flax flowers are just so beautiful!!!!Any pointers as to correctly harvesting…See More
