A "prefect shed" for me is a shed where every bit of skin is removed. This would include the very small pieces at the tip of the tail, the eye caps, and all oif the skin everywhere else.

An "imperfect shed" is just not a perfect shed, there could be a piece at the tail or something of the like. In my instructions, I do not guarantee a perfect shed, as it may still be an imperfect shed, but see below.

A bad shed, like the first shed I had with my corn, is one where the skin does not come off all in one piece, but rather in much smaller sperated pieces. I do guarantee you that if you provide a shed box, and maintain a high humidity in it, that you will never get a bad shed when using a shed box properly.
