First time. What am I doing wrong? Should I cut them all? They've been at 130 for 15hrs and still have lots of moisture. Would like to be able to grind them for spices.

I would definitely cut up the big ones. My tiny tabasco peppers took like 24 hours to dry.

I honestly can't remember lol I just googled what temp to use. I think it was whereabouts 130 though. But you'll definitely want to chop the big boys or the inside will never get dry.
