Dehydrating 2010

As long as the nights remain above 80* and humidity is below 60% (=basically here in Phx means 'not raining') then you can continue to dehydrate outside.
EDIT: GRAIN DOES NOT NEED THOSE TEMPERATURES - STILL TESTING FOR LOWEST WORKING TEMP.

This week I have a box of pears that I bought when the forecast was predicting clear and sunny for days/weeks. However, they have done surprisingly well despite the higher humidity putting pears onto my list of fruits that can be dried successfully. :)

Give it a try! Dehydrate some fruit in your backyard this year! Banana slices are easy for anyone since many of us regularly find 'overripe' bananas in our homes. They do, however; take longer than one day to dry. Just leave them until they are leathery and yummy :)
