Bamboo grows to a height of 1.5 meters within the first several months of growth, and thereafter is harvested every 5-6 years. It is cut into strips, and then laminated into flooring planks.

My wood floor in the tropics is without a subfloor. Was lucky with weather, but this is the rain forest. So it got wet a few times before completely covered with the dome installed. The wood finish was put on later, but it would have been nicer and cleaner if the finish was put on before the yurt was erected. Ideally, it would have been covered with a tarp to be dried in. I figured this would hold true for tiles and other types of flooring that may require a subfloor. The only exception I can think of is carpet, which is a bad choice for yurts.

From this standpoint, yurts are no different than any other construction in that the structure should be dried in, with the interior out of any possibility of inclement weather, prior to putting down the floor. The SUBFLOOR must be done ahead of time as it is what the yurt kit will sit on, but NOT the floor itself as implied in the article.
