harvesting and drying river cane
Pat B:
No it is not necessarily a bad idea unless it caused the cane to crack. If you put the other ones in the sun they will turn tan color. It is the sunshine that makes them change color. Just because they are green now doesn't mean they are not dry.
I usually leave my cane bundled in my utility room for at least a month before I begin to work them. They are green when I take them out but soon turn tan as more sunlight touches them.
