There is both a science and art to selecting the perfect harvest time. You may need to do some
experimentation to learn what works best for your plants and drying conditions.
Select only flowers or seed pods in perfect condition since blemishes or fading will only be emphasized
when dried.
Harvest plants with long stems at least two to four inches so you have plenty of room for bundling.
Harvest flowers when they are dry. Usually late morning time is best when the dew has had time to
evaporate, but it has not become so hot that the flowers are looking wilted.
