    Hi. Great video. I pray I'm able to plant and grow mine in zone 6b this Spring. I have an air fryer. It has multiple temps. Perfect for drying.

    I have the Excalibur dehydrator. It has an herb setting. I use that for drying the leaves. I use the Hamilton drying the power because the blower is at the bottom and the blower on the Excalibur is at the back side.

    Can you also freeze the leaves in Zip Lock freezer bags? Or hang dry stevia on the stems and then take the leaves off?

      Hi tennesseenana, I have not put my stevia in the freezer, or dried. Some herbs do well with that, but I have not tried it with Stevia. I will have to research that. My favorite is with the tincture way, using the vodka and the cooking the alcohol out.

    I have a Cosari dehydrator and love it! My Stevia seeds have germinated (12 out of 50 seeds) and I’m hoping they thrive until I can put them outside. An indoor plant would be nice too.

      I will have to check out that dehydrater. Where are you located? I have to start some stevia, it's amazing how sweet it is. after trying both methods of preserving the stevia. I definitely prefer the liquid. I think my germination was low last year. But starting more again, for this year. I had about 12 plants last year and it did great in the garden.

      @@flyingbytheseedofmyplants1948 I’m in Iowa, 5B last frost date of April 29. I’d like to put a few in a planter on my deck where I can wheel them around and find shade on super hot days. And tuck one in my raised garden bed.

      I like the idea of using a planter pot for stevia, I might do that too. Sounds like a great idea. I am trying to figure out what I am planting where, and doing the pot would open more space in my raised beds. @@juliepoolie5494

    Where can I buy stevia plants?

      Hi Sandy, typically a garden center will have plants. I started all mine from seed. I bought the seeds from Johnny's seed company. I did start them in February. But if you need starts to transplant, I would check anywhere that sell herbs.
