So, Just so you get an idea of what I'm up against-
This is the main curing area for burleys, fluecured, and aircured varieties. My wife has got her hand up to give perspective.
This is my sun cure rack as full as can be. Notice the white leaf of one variety, Almost the entire plant were white like that. That is a mystery plant that came from Mad house marked as izmir but is not izmir, not sure what to make of it, it has properties of a burley and fluecured variety. It certianly was a striking plant being the only white leaf amongst a sea of green.
This is where I have to put the rest of the sun cured for the time being. They will end up on the rack eventually. I still have a lot of suncured varieties to harvest.
Ones that are nearing the finish of air curing are going into the honey room for finishing so I can make space under the porch. I have a heater on minimum to keep it warm and dry.
On another note, my whole half rack under the porch came down today in a collosal cluster F!*& of noise and shatterd leaf. wasn't tobad though. We are heading back into sunshine with a breeze and it's getting really dry now with humidity at 20%, some leaf will dry green for sure with that. The weather outlook is calling for a warmer and drier than usual fall so at least I have time. I'd rather a few leaf dry green then to lose it all to mold or rot.
