[cw10126z-vdynedrps.jpg] The Harvest in Vekkie's loving paws
Vekkie very gently directs the Condensed DyneDrops from the Leaf into the appropriate Vial.
Once collected, Vekkie will cap the vial with its natural cap; the one from which it grows out of the main stem of the Vine.
Later, this cap may, if desired, be burnished and sealed to resemble the cap of a vial of insulin.
Sometimes it's a good idea to do that, if the vial is to be delivered very far away. However, for a delivery closer by, the original leaf-like cap may be left on the vial, without burnishing or hardening. The natural leaf-like cap will keep the DyneDrops safe for shorter trips, very close by.
Once the Vials have been sealed, they are ready to pick, and can be set aside for delivery on the next mission Vekkie and her team undertakes.
