I was wondering when the best time to harvest chives at.   Can they still be harvested after they bloom.   Can we cut them and just remove the bloom?  Would they still be as tasty or do they loose some of their flare later in season.   Wondering if they get woody to a point they are not longer good to harvest and the plant should just be cut down?

yep  cut them down to about an inch of the ground and they will grow new inside the existing stem
