Drying river cane?
« on: February 12, 2011, 12:49:16 PM »
Is there any secret to drying cane?  Do you need to apply anything on it to prevent it from cracking?  Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks..

I have been tols....Time nothing applied in a shady spot out of the sun, or a jerky dehydrator!

Keep it in a dry shady place ( garage) . It will dry fine naturally and will lose the green color in a few months.
