The Small Plant Drying Rack is a low frame of sticks and twine for drying herbs and other small plants. The in-game tooltip says it is used to dry smaller plants like herbs, peppers and flowers.

It belongs to Farming and foraging. Fresh herbs from the garden or the woods go on the rack and come off dried. The rack also turns Grass Cutting into Hay for farm animals. It is one of the first stations a gardener or forager builds. The Large Plant Drying Rack covers grain, flax and hemp. The rack is built from the build menu.

How to Build Small Plant Drying Rack

The build is called Small Plant Drying Rack and sits in the Farming build menu. It takes four Long Stick, four Twine and two Nails. A hammer, a saw and a drill are needed, and all three come back after the build. A crude saw works in place of a full saw. A wood drill, metal drill or a poor wooden drill all count as the drill.

The builder needs Carpentry level 1. The build gives 10 Carpentry XP. The recipe is known from the start.

Once built, the rack has 100 health. Each level of the builder's skill adds 20 more.

The Small Plant Drying Rack recipe is in the Farming build menu. It needs Carpentry level 1.

How to Use Small Plant Drying Rack

Clicking the rack opens its drying window. The plants go in, and the drying is started by hand. The rack then holds them until they are dry.

Each load takes up to twenty of one plant. The same number of dried pieces comes back out. Only plants counted as small fit this rack.

Crafting Recipes

Kitchen herbs make up most of the list. Dry Basil, Dry Chives, Dry Cilantro, Dry Oregano, Dry Parsley, Dry Rosemary, Dry Sage, Dry Thyme and Dry Mint all work here. Dry Habaneros and Dry Jalapenos dry hot peppers.

Wild and medicinal plants also dry here. Dry Comfrey, Dry Common Mallow, Dry Broadleaf Plantain, Dry Black Sage, Dry Chamomile and Dry Wild Garlic cover the forager's finds. Dry Lavender, Dry Roses and Dry Marigold dry flowers. Dry Poppy Pods and Dry Hops are on the list too.

Dry Greenpeas and Dry Soybeans dry legumes. Dry Grass turns Grass Cutting into Hay, which is useful to anyone keeping animals.

None of these ask for a skill level, and all are known from the start.

Every recipe made at the Small Plant Drying Rack is listed with what it uses up, the tools it hands back and the skill it asks for. A "Yes" under Learned means the recipe has to be learned before it shows up.
