Great video❣️
I try to sort & place on a parchment lined cookie sheet by size.
That way the drying is more uniform.
I stack my cookie sheets; sitting them at an angle on top of one another.
I can get 6 sheets in the oven at a time.

Thanks! I usually dry mine in the dehydrator, but I have so much this year and only today to dry it.

Hi, do you know if you can do peach leaves like this?

[@dirtygnomesgardens1667]

I've never tried it but I think it would work fine. I know I wouldn't hesitate to do this with hibiscus leaves.

[@kinb2318]

Thanks for the reply. I did do it with peach leaves using your method. It was helpful! Thanks@@dirtygnomesgardens1667

Does basil return?

[@dirtygnomesgardens1667]

No, it's more of an annual. It will go to seed and pop up in other places sometimes.

Are you using F of C as degrees?

[@dirtygnomesgardens1667]

This is F.
