用于建筑目的的竹材必须在竹秆达到最大强度且[[樹液]]中的糖分最低时进行收获，因为高糖含量会增加[[有害生物|害虫]]侵害的易度和速率。与森林树木相比，竹种生长较快。竹园可以在较短的时间内进行收获，比起树木园林来说。<ref>{{cite book|title=Non-Wood Forest Products of the Philippines|last1=Razal|first1=Ramon|last2=Palijon|first2=Armando|publisher=El Guapo Printing Press, Calamba Printing Press|year=2009|isbn=978-971-579-058-1|location=Calamba City, Laguna|pages=145}}</ref>

竹子的收获通常遵循以下周期：

*'''秆的生命周期''': 由于每根独立的[[秆|竹秆]]需要经历五到七年的生命周期，理想情况下，在完全收获之前，它们应该达到这种成熟水平。清理或稀疏秆，特别是老化的秆，有助于确保新生长获得足够的光线和资源。保养良好的丛可以比未收获的野生丛产量高出三到四倍。与上述生命周期一致，竹子从两到三年到五到七年不等的时间内进行收获，这取决于竹种。<ref>{{cite book |last1=Panda |first1=H. |title=Bamboo Plantation and Utilization Handbook |date=Oct 6, 2011 |publisher=Asia Pacific Business Press, Inc. |page=168}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Marie |first1=Joanne |title=Bamboo Harvesting and Growing |url=https://www.weekand.com/home-garden/article/bamboo-harvesting-growing-18033612.php |agency=Week& |publisher=Hearst Newspapers |accessdate=2023-08-22 |archive-date=2023-06-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230617181605/https://www.weekand.com/home-garden/article/bamboo-harvesting-growing-18033612.php |dead-url=no }}</ref>
*'''年度周期''': 大部分新竹的生长发生在[[雨季]]期间，此时干扰竹丛可能会损坏即将到来的庄稼，而在雨季/生长季节即将开始之前进行收获也可能会损坏新的嫩芽，因此最好是在雨季开始前几个月进行收获。<ref>{{cite web |last1=Hornaday |first1=Fred |title=Harvesting Bamboo: When, why and how |url=https://bambubatu.com/harvesting-bamboo-when-why-and-how/ |website=Bambu Batu |date=22 August 2022 |access-date=2023-08-22 |archive-date=2023-06-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230617212334/https://bambubatu.com/harvesting-bamboo-when-why-and-how/ |dead-url=no }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|author=Jen Lukenbill|title=măng nứa khô|url=https://lamthuongfood.com/mang-nua-kho/|access-date=2022-08-22|publisher=Forestry Department|archive-date=2023-07-09|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230709081507/https://lamthuongfood.com/mang-nua-kho/|dead-url=no}}</ref>此外，在这个高雨量期间，树液水平最高，然后逐渐减少，直至[[旱季]]。<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Hasan |first1=S.M. |title=STUDIES ON GROWTH AND MATURITY OF BAMBOO CULMS |journal=The Commonwealth Forestry Review |date=June 1975 |volume=54 |issue=2 |pages=147–153}}</ref>
*'''日常周期''': 在白天的高峰期，[[光合作用]]达到顶峰，树液中的糖含量最高，因此这是一天中最不理想的时间进行收获，许多传统从业者认为黎明或黄昏在残月时是最佳收获时间。<ref>{{cite web |last1=Schröder |first1=Stéphane |title=When and How to Harvest Bamboo |url=https://www.guaduabamboo.com/blog/when-and-how-to-harvest-bamboo |publisher=Guadua Bamboo |access-date=2023-08-22 |archive-date=2023-06-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230617212055/https://www.guaduabamboo.com/blog/when-and-how-to-harvest-bamboo |dead-url=no }}</ref>
