What's the best / easiest way to dry or make hemp suitable for use in pva bags? I know you can but pva friendly hemp in the shops but it's about 100x more expensive than if you cook it up yourself or even buy it pre cooked.
Thanks

If you dry it I think it will float. If you put off the juice and give it a coating of salt it should be ok in pva. Use the juice elsewhere too good to throw away.

Salt. If your using pva mesh it does make it go a bit rubbery and hard to work with. And does cut down on the melt time. But the bonus is salt is probably an attractor in itself.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
