I leave them out as long as it remains dry, wait for the roots to crisp. We have rain forecast Thursday so I shall move them on racks in the shed for a couple of weeks to allow the necks to dry
I do believe someone on here hangs them out like washing

Is that me your referring to Admin ?  Tongue

Lying out in the rain or humid weather doesn’t work in Ireland but hanging in a poly tunnel with air movement does.

The greens have all dried up nicely and tightened up at the neck, used some the other night and they were lovely and firm.
