My experience making the herbarium

Hello, I made my herbarium the first year of career, in 2015. It was the first time I made a herbarium, I had about six months to do it quietly, but as a good chilean I leave it at the last moment to do it. I remember that I started to collect the first plants near my house on the Panul Hill of La Florida. At that time I had too much time and I took it easy, but then I let a lot of time pass and  I had to start collecting the other plants very quickly. The last plants that collected very hurried I was badly pressed, but fortunately they served me for the final presentation.

The plants that I had the best, the most beautiful, had collected with plenty of time to spare on a field trip in the "Cajon of Maipo". The first time I went alone and the last I gather them with some friends, most of them collect in Santiago due to the time and the rest manage to get me with university colleagues who traveled to the south.

The last month I was busy doing the herbarium at the last moment, it was a miracle to finish it on time. In summary it took me about two months to finish completely, but it did not stay the way I would have liked it. At first I liked to do it, but the last month was a martyrdom.
