Comment: per . Any sourceable information about the effects of drying on potency, etc., or about significant methods of drying can easily find a home in Spice#Handling spices or some similar place. There's no such information here, however

Comment: This is almost a classic case of a badly-written article on a |verifiable and |notable topic, which can be improved through the normal editing process.  Admittedly, it is mostly "hot to" cruft, but |that can be fixed

Comment: Would fail , except that it's nowhere near good enough for that. This is poorly and carelessly written, although proof-reading could fix that. More seriously though, there's just no content here. ''"This moment in time for collecting is different for each plant."'' tells ''nothing useful'' to the level of an encyclopedia article. We can do better, and we should start by ruthlessly throwing away anything this poor

Comment: Clearly not a suitable topic per . The only references listed are a WikiHow article and an article titled "How to dry herbs" from about.com! Neither one qualifies as a |reliable source. The only way to fix this article would to make it about the history and use of dried herbs and spices, and that information would be far more appropriately included in those articles directly
