RE: My Herbal Medicine Cabinet, and Then Some
I always cut heavy veins out, because of the chance of them not drying properly and molding in the jars. They also take up a lot of room, and cutting them out doesn't mean much loss of the plant.
Im considering doing that actually. These mullein leaves are REALLY well insulated lol
I lost a bunch of herbs that way this summer. Echinacea flowers mostly. I underestimated their moisture content big time with those big seed heads.
I never tried to dry the whole head, just the petals.... Or the leaves, with veins cut out...
