• Thanks greenwood, I do actually have some good B12 supplements but if I find myself near a Lidl, I may drop in. (If not only to pick up that huge bag of spinach you say they do!)

• kimciotola, other than eating animal based products, vit D can only naturally be sourced from the sun. I live in the North West of the UK and have an office based job which doesn't allow for me to get enough sunshine. I'm not a fan of supplements bu…

• Just been looking into this myself as tests have shown I'm deficient in vit D. It's pretty hard trying to weight up which supplements to go for.

• lilabet, I know exactly what you mean about guessing the drying time. I still have this problem now and even if I'm making the same thing, it's different each time. I tend to dehydrate stuff at the weekends when I can be around to keep checking. It'…

  in Can you stagger your dehyrating batches of foods? Comment by sv3
• Unless you're dehyrating really strong flavoured food, I don't think it would matter to stagger different things at different times. I've done it before and not had any issues. hope this helps!

• Some great advice above but thought I'd throw in my 2 pence worth. On a Sunday evening, I sit down and come up with a few meal ideas for the week. I don't always plan an exact schedule, but at least a rough idea on a few things I'm going to prepare.…

• Unless you're planning on doing a LOT of dehydrating, just get a 5 tray. I only have a baby 4 tray one and it's fine for me. :-)
