4. There are three primary types of plucking, which are referred to as plucking standards.
5. Fine, medium and coarse plucking are all included.
6. Only shoots with two leaves and a bud are allowed in fine plucking.
7. Medium plucking is defined as three leaves pulled from the harvested shoots.
8. While coarse appearing refers to the removal of branches with more than three leaves, damaged leaves may also be removed.
9. Tea plantations witness the process of plucking.
