Saffron production in the world dates back to our beloved country of Iran since ancient times. But unfortunately, in recent years, Iranian saffron has been exported to the world under the name of other countries. In the past, saffron was only cultivated in dry and water-deficient areas, and in recent years, saffron is cultivated in all parts of our beloved country of Iran. Saffron is very water-deficient, and in the spring and summer, when all plants and trees wake up from hibernation, saffron goes into hibernation and wakes up again in October and starts producing flowers and growing. The best time to plant saffron, based on climate and weather, starts in July and continues until early October. Saffron is in the form of bulbs, and these bulbs produce saffron flowers every year and new bulbs start growing next to them. To plant saffron, first the land is plowed about 40 centimeters deep and the soil is enriched with rotted animal manure. After mixing the rotted animal manure with the soil, the entire land is leveled and grooves 20 centimeters deep are created. Saffron is planted in rows. Saffron bulbs are placed in the grooves at a distance of about 10 centimeters. The next row is placed at a distance of about 30 centimeters from the side row, of course, this distance varies from 10 centimeters to 30 centimeters in small and large fields. The time to harvest saffron flowers in November or December varies based on the weather and climate. To pick saffron flowers, you should collect the beautiful purple saffron flowers before sunrise because saffron flowers are of the best quality before sunrise. The flowering period of saffron is about 3 weeks, with the highest production of saffron flowers from the third day onwards, and the lowest production of saffron flowers in the first and last days. The life of saffron bulbs in the ground is 7 to 10 years. When saffron bulbs are planted in the ground, they produce flowers for about 7 to 10 years, and after this period, the bulbs are removed from the ground and transferred to another land. Each bulb that is placed in the ground during this period produces many bulbs next to it, which are added to the production year by year, and after 7 years, the bulbs are removed from the ground, a total of bulbs have been produced, the excess of which is sold and some are replanted in new land.
