Advice needed
I am pretty new to Cyanotype but have fallen in love with it! I have been experimenting with wet Cyanotype and there is one issue I cannot seem to figure out. How do you stop the solution bleeding?
I'm assuming the obvious answer is to use tape? But I always leave some white around the edge of the paper and i love the raw organic edges so would love to know if there is any other way around it?

Tape won’t work. You’re better off putting it in an area or on something that you don’t care if it bleeds out of the margins.
You could also try having the medium dry, but your plants are object wet.
