I agree with Jan - it is important to really dry them out and i have found the oven the best way but make sure they are crispy dry or they go mouldy. I keep mine in jam jars and Douwe Egberts coffee jars and they seem to keep well, My one lot i dried end of september and still ok. Herbie and Daisy wolf it down straight away so i don't waste any

thanks, clearly going wrong waiting on mother nature. I will try oven or maybe separate heat emitter. I've been pretty useless for such a simple exercise so far. CB

Thanks John. After my initial comments on the price of weeds I have taken on board everyone's comments. I will try at some stage as they would not touch my dried weeds and flowers. If they do like them I will tell the forum. Won't be for a few months, I have fresh weeds galore!

Jan I think its Horsfields in general, mine wont touch them and will always go for fresh and go for days without caving in. John's product does look very tasty though I must say, CB
