Crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum) is typically harvested when the flowers are in full bloom, which usually occurs about 70-90 days after planting. To harvest, cut the plants at the base using a sickle or scythe, or with mechanical harvesters for larger fields.

After cutting, the plants should be left to dry in the field for a few days before being collected and stored. Proper drying is essential to prevent mold and ensure the longevity of the harvested material.Boden
