FAQ

How do I harvest responsibly?

Choose abundant species, avoid protected areas, and take small clippings. We cover local guidelines in every workshop.

How long does pressing take?

Most botanicals flatten in 2–3 weeks. Thick blooms can take longer; we prefer patience over heat to preserve color.

What paper should I use?

Uncoated, absorbent blotter or heavyweight watercolor papers wick moisture while preventing imprint transfer.

How do I prevent mold?

Replace damp layers during week one, keep the stack in a cool, dry spot, and avoid sealing fresh botanicals in plastic.

Any safety considerations?

Use trimmers carefully, keep desiccants away from children and pets, and wash hands after handling unknown species.
