| Drying frames | Referring to wood or metal frames upon which a plant press is placed. The heat source can be propane gas, light bulbs, heating strips, or hot plates. The opening in the top of the frame should be covered by a wire mesh to make sure that nothing falls onto the heat source and catches fire. The size of the frame depends upon the number of specimens collected each day and the distance from the plant press to the heat source is determined by the intensity of the heat source.
