I think you're going to find japs just a little too thick for good
drying at low temps.
Freeze/dehydrate/freeze/dehydrate works good if you don't want to
bump
up the heat too much.

Just trying to give the unit a good work out, I knew that drying
Jals
would be about the hardest. If I can get it done with just a light
bulb and a fan
JohnT said that he believed that drying at 140F 'might have' killed
germinatiion
If I can get the job done at 120F and still have viable seeds that
would be a plus... 120F is not that unusual in NM, TX, AZ and CAL.
right??
Just a different thought
