It has been about a week or so since I started the powder. Used to look like this.... A week later, after sitting on my drying rack and cutting into smaller pieces, the roots were dry enough to blend into a powder with a small bullet blender. A dehydrator would have been ideal but it was not actually needed with some effort and patience. That was really it though, now the real test is to try it in action, but for now it will be tucked away in my first aid kit until I have some blood to stop. TADAA!
