- Their rhizomes are starch-rich.
- They are often serotinous and can harvest high yields.
- Deep cultivars grow more than 40 cm (16 in) deep.
- Rhizomes of adlittoral cultivars are crisp and good for frying purposes.
- When harvested in July, adlittorals have higher yields than deeper-growing cultivars, but not necessarily when harvested in September.

- Adlittoral cultivars range from 10 to 20 cm (3.9 to 7.9 in) depth and are often premature.
- Adlittoral, deep, and intermediate cultivars are distinguished according to the depth in which the rhizomes grow underground.
- Using pre-mature cultivars, rhizomes can be harvested earlier and sold for a higher price.
- Cultivars can be classified by harvest time or by the depth of rhizomes into these types:Pre-mature (early) cultivars are harvested before the end of July, serotinous (late) cultivars from September on, and mid-serotinous or mid-matutinal cultivars are in between these harvest times.
- Rhizome lotus cultivars produce a higher yield and higher quality rhizomes than seed or flower lotus cultivars. Furthermore, this group grows tall and produces few to no flowers.
- Regarding production area in China, rhizome lotus has the largest area with 200,000 ha (490,000 acres), followed by seed lotus with 20,000 ha (49,000 acres).
- Varieties that show more than one of these characteristics are classified by the strongest feature.
- Lotus varieties have been classified according to their use into three types: rhizome lotus, seed lotus, and flower lotus.
- The finis are taking their talents to South Beach.

- In Japan and on bigger farms, manual labour harvesting is fully replaced by machines.

- In small-scale production, they are harvested by hand using fork-like tools.
- The large, starch-rich rhizomes are easy to dig out of the drained soil.

- Early varieties are harvested in July until September and late varieties from October until March,
- The rhizomes mature to a suitable stage for eating in approximately six to nine months.
- After sun drying for two to three days, they are processed by mechanical tools to separate seed coats and embryos.
- Seeds and seed pods can be harvested when they turn black four to eight months after planting.
- The harvest of flowers is usually done by hand for three to four months.
- Four months after planting, the production of flowers has its climax.
- Flowers can be picked every two days during summer and every three days during the colder season.
- The first leaves and flowers can be harvested three months after planting.
- The stolon is pulled out of the water by pulling and shaking the young leaves in the shallow water.
- For this step, the field is not drained.
- It must be harvested before flowering. Harvesting the stolon is done by manual labor.
- The stolon is ready to harvest two to three months after planting.
- Then a maximum of approximately 4,000 per hectare (1,600/acre) with grid spacing of 1.2 by 2 metres (3 ft 11 in × 6 ft 7 in) are used to plant directly into the mud 10–15 cm (3+7⁄8–5+7⁄8 in) below the soil surface.

- To support a quick initial growth, the water level is relatively low and increases when plants grow.
- One round of manure is applied after ten days, before flooding the field.
- The first step of the cultivation is to plough the dry field.
- Furthermore, tissue culture is a promising propagation method for the future to produce high volumes of uniform, true-to-type, disease-free materials.
- There are several other propagation ways via seeds or buds.
- a small part of rhizome with at least one eye is either planted in ponds or directly into a flooded field.
- In the beginning of the summer period (from March until May in the northern hemisphere),
- The sacred lotus requires a nutrient-rich and loamy soil.
- Care must be taken to fully insulate the tubers.
- preferably in a cardboard box or container filled completely with vermiculite or perlite.
