making plantain salve with beeswax and olive oil small tins www.amazon.com/dp/B082SZD113/... beeswax amzn.to/3dCJZQe Southeast medicinal plant book amzn.to/452iapS
Justin I just made 13 containers of plantain salve 2/18/24. I let it sit in oil for over 2 months strained the oil added my bees wax from my honey bees and added some essential oil. Everyone I give it to loves it. I’ve been making it for years and it’s great for stings and itchy skin. Great video.
Hey Brother, the focus thing going on totally did not take away from the fact that you made another great video. I think it bothered you more than anyone else would have even noticed. These videos are too valuable to worry about the focus. You did great things in this video, glad you posted it.
You dont know how close i came to hitting the delete button after i was done editing and proof watching it. It was simply because i thought it might teach someone something that i didnt. If it had been a fishing video it woulda been gone
Justin I sure appreciate you going to the trouble to help us learn to make your salve. I like your no-nonsense explanations and the way you took the mojo out of this simple time-tested remedy. And I especially enjoyed your beautiful Southern drawl. I’m in NC and people are ashamed to sound Southern or country around here anymore. It’s a sad reality. Everyone wants to sound like soap opera people or something. Anyway, much abliged. 😁
I slipped and fell looking for twigs to put in my container gardens, looked up and saw a beautiful comfrey plant! Have never seen one in the 'wild.' So excited. Will be making a salve with plantain and comfrey! Thanks for the info.
I am very new to medicinal plants, I’m absolutely blown away by how many plants most people spray with weed killer are actually very healthy and healing. I have plantain growing all over the place. I’m going to see if it’s the correct plant. Thanks for the video. I’ve enjoyed it.
Good day Justin, people who argue needs ta realize plant matter is in alot of over the counter, and preescribed medicine, ,before big pharma , small time docs, memaws , our granny's, n great gran daddies, all knew how to use these medicines , they are noo different. I thank the Good Lord he pointed me to your channel. I learned lot of good things. So you keep up the good work Sir, and God Bless you and all your family. Have a blessed day.
I chewed up some plantain and put it on a bald hornet sting. The pain stopped almost instantly. I didn't know how to make the salve, so thanks for teaching me!
Instead of putting cold water in to replenish, have a separate pan of water that will be boiling to just keep adding to your existing water. Might shorten your time of cooking
@@user-ms1uz7th1w A spit poultice is when you stick one of the leaves in your mouth and chew it up pretty good to release the plant juices, then take the chewed leaves and put it on the sting, bite or wound. You can do that wherever you are if you get a sting and can find the plant nearby.
Hello from Ontario Canada 🍁 I pour this into chapstick tubes and carry it when I go out in nature or walks. Great for spider and mosquito bites when I’m out. Love your video. Thank you. 😇❤️
One year a couple of people gifted me a couple of french presses. I hung onto them in case my main one for making coffee broke but you just made my salve making so much easier with that comment. This is a great video and I'll be saving ro make my own plantain salve this year. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for sharing, Justine. Watching your video reminded me of an old saying "Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day, show him how to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime." Again, thanks so much for sharing; it is truly appreciated and may God continue to bless you and yours!
Love this kind of material. So informative, inspiring and encouraging. Makes me think “I can do that!” I laughed at the spoon handle comment. Been there, done that! 🔥🥄LOL
I love your video, and your son is adorable! Thank you for this. So many people have no idea just how important plantain is. It's one of the best medicinal plants out there, and most people just dismiss it as a useless weed. It's great for bug bites, but will also draw infection out of wounds, cuts, blisters, any sort of broken skin. If there's any pus in there, it will start to heal in, no joke, less than 24 hours. Plantain has antimicrobial properties, so the wound won't reinfect. Amazing plant. And, it's edible. Young leaves add zest to a salad. So thanks again for this video about it, and showing people how to make a salve out of it.
As you were identifying, I went in my backyard along the driveway and found plantains. Pulled the stem off and saw the strings you explained. I have been foraging a lot just around the house and found A LOT of natural remedies. Thank you for this video. I cant wait to make this salve.
I like what you said about your are not the kind of person who thinks his way is the only way. Been considering making several different kinds of salve dandelion, lavender, and now, Virginia plantain. I’m going to try your infusion process with coconut oil. And then pouring that concoction into the tens because coconut oil will solidify at room temperature. Hopefully that will work. I’m so glad you’re here. Keep sharing with us. I’m very grateful.
I'm so glad I came across your channel! I don't know where you're from, but I could listen to you talk all day. I had family in eastern Kentucky growing up, and oh how I've missed hearing them! I'm learning about medicinal plant use, and now it feels like I'm learning with family, thank you!
The video brought back so many memories. I grew up infarms that my father owned and we had everything . Horses, cows, pigs, chickens, dogs, pigeons, a mule, donkey, turkeys etc. Hearing the hens announce laying eggs and the rooster so proud. Priceless! Thank you. I learned something new today. Blessings to you and yours!!!🤙🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Ty , & enjoyed ya sense of humor I will make it scene I have it growing in my garden ,p.s finally found someone who says oil the ways I do ,that's fantastic 💓🍃
The authenticity of this video is the best! I have those up in NY too. Never knew you could use them but I'm definitely looking at weeds different from now on.
Omg now that was an experience!! Could hardly wait for the next word… u did very well, very informative, how, when, from where…and that hillbilly? drawl was phenomenal! Congrats! Thnks 4 the experience!
Hi Justin! I am new to your channel and loved the way you taught all of us to make Plantain Salve. Thank You so much! You gave some great advice and I loved seeing your Sweet little guy! I am going to make some of this salve this week! Now I feel like I’m ready!
I came across you for looking how to cook wild lettuce. I've been talking it for years. But I buy it already cooked. Thanks for sharing this.keep on keeping on 😊
Thank you sir for your informative, entertaining video. I plan to make the plaintain salve and follow your instructions. Thanks and keep making your videos; we will keep watching. First time I watched you, and enjoyed, and am motivated by what I saw. GOD BLESSES THE WORK OF YOUR HANDS!!! AMEN.
Just found your channel. Im lovin your video. Im in the process of making me a medicinal garden. Plantain was too of my list. Cant wait to make this salve.
Im glad I found your video! I put some plaintain in some olive oil over the summer and forgot I had it tucked away until just now!😆 I wonder what else I squirreled away for balms ans salves...I guess id better go check...after i watch the rest of your vid though lol
You can also fold up a kitchen towel, or cloth, so the glass is insulated, and doesn't explode. It's rare, it happens! I had 2 broadleafs just turn up! Pretty excited!
Hi Justin, thank you for this wonderful tutorial!! it was very helpful, now I know how the plantain plant looks like 😊❤. I usually do salves for my use ,family and friends only, and I usually put a few drops of vitamin E in the batch, and mix well before I pour into the containers. Vitamin E is an antioxidant and prevents the oil from going rancid, so your salve can last a little longer( it also wonderful healing properties). But it is not a preservative, this has to be clear😊. Thank you again, I just suscribed to your channel!
I just simmer the leaves in a frying pan for a few minutes, and it works wonders . I haven't tried just water it might work as good something to think about, I love plantain ❤
I just found you tonight! I subscribed and I had the best time watching your video! Can’t wait for the next one. And I’m hoping I can grow plantains in AZ!!
Put a piece of muslin ( or an old t-shirt cut to the size you need) into your straining sieve. After pouring your plant material & oil into the cloth lined sieve, pick up all the corners of the muslin. Start twisting the muslin. Continue to twist to get as much of the oil out as possible. Squeeze the ball of plant material. I strain into a measuring cup of appropriate size. That makes it easier to pour the oil into your containers. As he said, you can make do with what you have. It will work out. GOD bless
I just found your channel! Plantain is an amazing and resilient plant. I live in northern Saskatchewan, Canada, and it grows prolifically here as well.
Thanks for the great video ! My wife and I enjoyed it very much. We have been wanting to do something with the plantain, we have it growing all over the place up here in Ct. Might have to wait just a bit though, It's been so hot and dry lots of plants are not looking so good. We finally got a decent rain today and hopefully some more for tomorrow.
We are finally getting rain here in Mississippi as well. Glad you guys enjoyed the video. I try to keep things entertaining by just being me but also informative. Thank yall for watching
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors Ya, that's what I like about your video's entertaining by just being yourself. My wife really likes your son on there with. And so do I, That's what I did with my son and he grew up to be a hard worker, doing with my grand kids now too.
I use a 2oz. Pimento jar I saved. I bought a case of them when they went on sale $.50 a jar. Too use for seed saveing and other uses. Dried violet flowered teas.
I made some Plantain salve ,using dried powder form which i grinded very fine mixed with cocoa butter it's not very smooth but works will be trying your version soon thanks excellent.
I've made a spit poltice with plantains for ground bees and I'm allergic, the pain went away in like one - two seconds and it never swelled, left it on for about two minutes and all was good!
Thank you sir for providing us with this important knoledge we have this plant in sweden aswell and i picked it today myself and i put it on my 3 day old wound who already healed, after 1 hour it began to pulsate inside the wound i figure it helps the healing process, awsume help liked and subbed thanks for this nice video

What is your email? I’d like to get some ty.
What kind of essential oil?
I like frankincense oil
Awesome 👍, I'm going to try it your way. Did you use the root too?
Also, couldn't we just leave the plantain in the oil?
@@joycehaines2055suggestion if you use lemongrass oil, 1. It smells fantastic. And 2. It acts as a repellent, a real good repellent.
Hey Brother, the focus thing going on totally did not take away from the fact that you made another great video. I think it bothered you more than anyone else would have even noticed. These videos are too valuable to worry about the focus. You did great things in this video, glad you posted it.

@@SpiritoftheOutdoors lol....I'm glad you didn't delete
Switch to manual focus while at a steady distance.
I know this plan name goat ear mean shkorblang we eat this plan

Plantain, yarrow and mullein grow aaaaallll over my yard. Never tried the salve making! Thank you. I’m Northwest!
سلام میشه ب فارسی برام ترجمه کنید ک ب چه درد میخوره و چه روغنی اضافه کرد

I am watching all the way from Jamaica🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Does this variety grow there too?

I just found this fella and I believe I like the way he thinks
Welcome to the family

Thank you . Im glad you found this channel as well. It wouldnt be any fun without all of you and i enjoy reading comments and responding to them

Yours is easier....😂

i got a french press at the thrift store for $3 or so. I prefer making my coffee in a moka pot. I made my first salve yesterday. fun.
Thank you bro for making video us southern boys can understand.❤️
Yup
😅
Thanks! Glad to see people using it fresh, too. Sometimes you don't know you need it until you need it.
That is right. I prefer many plants fresh. The other medicine is for preservation primarily
People get rid off this plant from their lawn with herbicides not realizing the benefits of this plant. Great informative vid about the plantago
Thanks so much for sharing, Justine. Watching your video reminded me of an old saying "Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day, show him how to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime." Again, thanks so much for sharing; it is truly appreciated and may God continue to bless you and yours!
Love this kind of material. So informative, inspiring and encouraging. Makes me think “I can do that!” I laughed at the spoon handle comment. Been there, done that! 🔥🥄LOL
Gotta keep it entertaining
🤣 when you give advice about the spoon getting hot🤣 priceless. Love ya brother and will be doing this. Thank you and God bless!
😂 i hate dry boring videos 😂
If you use a toothpick and swirl it around in the hard salve, it’ll soften right up so you can spread it out.

I’m growing them in New Mexico. I just give them a drink once in a while during the dry season before the monsoon rains come.
