Cynara humilis, commonly known as the wild artichoke, should be harvested when the flower buds are still tight and before they start to open. This typically occurs in late spring to early summer. To harvest, use a sharp knife or pruning shears to cut the bud along with a few inches of the stem. It's important to wear gloves as the plant can have sharp thorns. After harvesting, the buds should be used fresh or can be stored in a cool, dry place for a short period.Bodem
