Good morning Kaye: As always, thank you for the very informative videos. Also, for mentioning about our Canadian governments plan to limit and ban natural supplements. I was not aware of this. I looked up Bill C-47 which is now in effect and it is most definitely onerous and draconian. The new regulations deal with tax amendments and inflationary control measues among other things. The herbal remedies part was thrown in as part of this bill without any public consultation. Part of these amendments, at the discretion of the powers to be, will require herbal remedy manufacturers to go through the same exhaustive testing as is the case with drug manufacturing companies. (We've seen how well that works. Thalidomide comes to mind). There's much more to this, however said, the rules are very loose and open ended and subject to changes and additions by "Order in Council ", which means no public consultation, at any time as they see fit. It's going to become prohibitively expensive for natural supplements manufacturers to market their products, and they'll more or less be legislated out of business. This bill has the full backing of the pharmaceutical companies, no surprise there. They cannot have people running around thinking for themselves and taking personal responsibility for their own health, especially if it cuts into their profits. Again, more of our freedoms being stripped away from us. Thank you for stepping up and doing what you do and sharing the knowledge you've garnered over the years with everyone. Greatly appreciated. (Also, got a kick out of the sparing match between the cats as you were doing your video. Hilarious!) All the best!
The cat footage made the overall video length longer, but I thought it was entertaining and people love cats, so... I'm going to pin this comment so people can see I was accurate in my reporting. Thanks!
@@Latebloomershow You’re very welcome Kaye: While we don't have a lot of control over some of the overreach we're subjected to nowadays, bringing it out into the open and discussing it will hopefully increase awareness and help initiate a change for the better. This is not the Canada I grew up in. Have a great day.
Most don't know this but our enemies are the Royals. They own everything. The Masons are their movers and shakers and make things happen locally. They also torment those that go against them. Most also don't know that like ying and yang, black and white (masonic colors) there are good masons and bad masons. Good masons don't even know the "hidden hand" within their cult that they think is "good." Search gold fringes around the American flag. We are owned by the Brits. (Royals) We have been "captured" a long time ago.
Finally had the opportunity to test Yarrow for its clotting capabilities. Was mushroom hunting and my daughter accidentally cut her finger, it was pretty deep and was bleeding heavily. We grabbed some yarrow growing on the trail and it immediately stopped the bleeding and also took her pain away. The most amazing benefit though (that I wasn’t aware of) was how quickly her wound healed! It probably could have used stitches but after two days it looked like a scratch. Never seen anything like it. Definite must have in any medicinal garden. I planted a very large medicinal garden for preparedness. It’s so beautiful and I absolutely love watching how it is evolving. I think everyone needs to grow the basics, not sure what’s co in but I do know it’s not good. Grow your own food and medicine.
@@Latebloomershow it’s a long list! Self Heal, Elecampane, ashwaganda, astragalus, licorice root, marshmallow root, comfrey, wormwood absinthe, mugwort, sweet Annie wormwood, holy basil, echinacea, yarrow, lemon balm, mints, feverfew, several sage’s several thyme’s, kitchen herbs (also all medicinal) valerian root, bergamot, calendula, borage, cleavers, nasturtiums, hyssop, chamomile, clary sage, lavender and I know I’m missing a lot. What I did was take a square 44’x44’ and I broke that into 4 squares where I have grass walking paths going around it so I can walk barefoot. I can’t even tell you how amazing and beautiful this garden is. Full of life. It was a lot of work but well worth it. Strictly Medicinal Seeds is an invaluable source for seeds. You can buy whole collections. I also go out and wild harvest things like elderflower, fireweed etc.
My grandkids are always bleeding from something. There outside battling nature. They now pick and chew it up themselves and apply it. Then go back to playing. They don’t even tell me till later. They helped me pick and make medicine with Mullen yesterday. So much to learn and teach!! Appreciate the videos.
I learned herbalism 50 yrs. Ago. Never too old or too smart to still learn. I see by your videos you have a character like my own. I have done some things you probably won't find in a book.
I love yarrow. Thank you for this video, great and necessary information ! Beautifully shot. And YES, more herb videos! God bless you, my friend, love you!
Once you have Yarrow, you'll always have Yarrow. LOL I transplanted ONE root a couple years back. I now have a HUGE patch of it. And it's now starting to grow up randomly. EVERYWHERE. It's like Holy Basil (Tulsi). Once it's there it will always be there. I'm happy to have both Yarrow and Tulsi all over the place. Love the kitties!!! EDIT: I have got a nice library going on all types of Herbal Medicine. It has certainly been an adventure. I just recently added a couple books from Dr. A.B. Howard. I had to print both books from a PDF because they are out of print. I have an old printer that came through like a champ. I put it all in page protectors and then into spiral ring notebooks. Thrift Books is also a great place to get used copies of amazing books on Herbs and Herbal Medicine. I'd love to see more videos on this!!
I have not heard from you (at this name) for awhile! Good to hear from you! My yarrow grows up randomly in the lawn and gets mowed. I hope this little yarrow rock garden takes off. It will be a challenge to grow in such thick crabgrass, etc. I'd love for you to make me those books. I am hopeless at getting things like that done. I bought a new printer a year ago, because the new printer I bought before I left LA didn't get used for a year and the heads turned to concrete, and it's never been connected to my computer. I need a secretary and a housekeeper, so I can garden and make videos, haha. God bless you.
@@Latebloomershow Boy, I could sure use a housekeeper, for REAL. You have no idea. LOL I haven't been myself. It's a long story. It started in January. VERY long story. Also, my oldest just got out of the hospital. She was in there from June 16th to July 5th. She had emergency open heart surgery on the 19th of June after they got rid of her pneumonia. Again, a long story. My heart hurts. God is holding me up. That's the only thing I know to say. My mind and heart have not been in a good place at all. The storm we had a month ago distroyed my garden. But, it will all work out. I have hope with that issue.
I sure would love a copy of that book. I don’t have room in my little cabin for a printer. If you’re interested I’d prepay you for a copy. :) Doesn’t hurt to ask. 🌷
🥰 love finding Tennessee gardeners. I’m a little west of Nashville. I started more medicinal plants this year, they are still little but I’ve been able to make tea. Going to try tinctures next. I have anise hyssop, feverfew, chamomile, Borage, Bergamot, yarrow, lavender, lemon balm and probably a few others…lol plus attempting vegetables in this crazy TN weather. I would love to turn my front yard into mostly flowers, less mowing the better.😊
Thank you for saying that about the Internet and that we need actual books to read for this knowledge in case something happens. The Internet is not a guarantee. It could be gone at any moment and people do not realize.
It won't be gone, but censorship is going to strangle us getting to the truth. Glenn Greenwald in a Tucker podcast last night fights relentlessly for 1A, wherever it is being infringed. He says Canada is pushing it harder than any place and other countries are watching to see how far they can go. They all want to control their citizens. Our constitution and Bill of Rights guarantees our freedom however current administrations around the world (except El Salvador presently) and pushing censorship of internet.
Good Morning Kaye - We all need to learn this lost art and skill to make our own medicines. I used to have some yellow yarrow in my yard but I think only the white and pink varieties can be used medicinally. Need to research if you are on blood thinners as this might not be the herb for you due to it's clotting properties. Wishing you a blessed day and week ahead..
Yes, just at the end of editing, I looked up that pomegranate yarrow I mention in the video and saw there are a ton of colors, and they say it is prohibited to propagate it. Therefore I imagine I don't want any of those mixing in my yard. As much as I love color, I'm sticking with "common yarrow." Pinned!
Be careful! I made the mistake of allowing wild lettuce to grow and it has taken me years to get it back under control. It’s a wonderful blessing to have but it can take over. I have tried to harvest it before it goes to seed.
Well done video Kaye- now sit and enjoy a cup of tea! I have valerian as well as yarrow as others have said. Their leaves are very different, similar looking flower-valerian flower has a sort of vanilla sent. Adding medicinal plants every year, need some feverfew. Migraines can be controlled by eating a leaf or two a day. It’s bitter like aspirin I’ve heard. Anyone know more about this plant?
I have the very same medical book ,love her work ,I've even ordered some of her tinctures, thank you for the video more of the same please ,your cats are beautiful, love is the key, always 💞 🐈 🌿☘🌻🌹
“They” have always been about destroying supplements to advance their control.😡 I bet it’s even more important to them now. Thanks for all the info Kaye. Such a beautiful plant. I have Stephen Harrod Buhner’s book, “Herbal Antivirals” and want to get his book “Herbal Antibiotics”. Packed with information. Was that a pink poppy near the yarrow, or a cosmos?💚👏
If you look closely in the last shots, I have both books sitting beside the dehydrator! Only because, maybe it was you, someone left a comment about them. I wanted to secure them ASAP. Thanks for being such a great support to this channel. God bless!
Yes, it was a poppy! I did not spread cosmos down there (although it may wind up there as I have it in the flower garden), only wildflower seeds. And there is another that came up abundantly in the meadow, Goldenmane Tickseed, with yellow petals and reddish center, so cute! Did you see it? If you have a place to scatter wildflower seeds, consider the packets they sell at Hoss Tools. Use my link for a discount on any Hoss Tools product!
I have more than 100 yarrow plants growing in my driveway, front and back, in a dirt and stone driveway. I also have comfrey as tall as me taken up 2 yards. Also Valerian thats 8' tall everywhere
Zone 3. Yes the comfrey goes dormant for winter. It's the first plant to come up in spring. The bees love it in bloom. I don' know how to send a plant by mail. Restristions for certain states. I love the smell of their flowers
Loved this! I need to get to work now on my yarrow patch that is absolutely beautiful but also medicinal! Thanks for this and I love watching the kitties! I’ve got 6 kitties myself and they are all special with their own personalities!
More, More More medicinal videos please Ma'am. I know I have many medicinal plants around the little woods I have here at my Condo. I'm afraid to try them. I'm thinking if the bugs are eating on them they surely are safe 🤔
Thanks girlie girl...we have yarrow growing all over growing wild this year and I need to harvest some. Love the music in the background. BTW, I just use girlie girl as a pet name assuming you're not offended bc I'm a woman as well and from the South and use to nicknames. I have relatives in N California and they are far advanced from me in harvesting and using wild herbs, so appreciate the vids. Subbed your chnnl.
Yes, please. Any videos on herbal medicine , tinctures will be helpful. I've begun making tinctures. I believe I started in the fall. I'm doing extracts also. I got 10 half pints of cowboy candy last night, plus a large jar of the brine left. I waterbathed it along with the candy. When I have jalapeños, I'll have enough brine ready for several jars!! I finally found a rosemary plant and still payed a terrible price!! I got it planted and watered in just before a storm. I hope it does well. Now I need to find some spearmint. When I trim my Lantanas back, I transplant them over my yard. I did 2 different places last year and they are looking well. I try to plant native, that don't require a ton of water.
Just saw this video for the first time today. I liked and subscribed. I got interested in medicinal plants a couple of years ago. I started using wild lettuce for pain, and it has made a huge difference for me. I planted yarrow seeds this spring, and I got one healthy plant growing. I used it last week when I cut a finger. It did seem to help, but I didn't use it correctly. From here, I'll see if I can find more of your videos, but I wanted to tell you that I would like to see more like this about other medicinal plants. I have read that Fever Few is good. I planted seeds, but none have come up yet. Thanks for the yarrow info.
Wonderful! I have a playlist you may find interesting. I'm still relatively new at the medicinal plants journey, even though I've been on youtube a long time, 8 years for urban gardening. Now, I have a veritable pharmacy in my yard. I just have to ID and use the weeds. Hope to hear from you often. I have not had success with feverfew but will give it another try this spring. ruclips.net/video/WPbXKq7bDsw/видео.html
Sorry to take so long watching and commenting - My son and I went to see The Sound of Freedom yesterday - It's an awesome film, and the subject matter is handled exceptionally well. Needless to say, I had chores waiting when I got home and supper to make. As always, a lovely and informative video! I learn so much from you, my friend! I will be looking for this in my adjacent landscape, or possibly planting some here. I also wanted to tell you that I've discovered flea bane growing on the county property across the street! Unfortunately, they mowed before I could harvest it. I've noted when it appeared on next year's calendar and will definitely get some of that!
The other thing I would’ve liked to known is, can I use Yarrow that is already dried that is planted outside can I save those flowers? It would be hard to wash dried flowers that are already going to seed to get the bugs out.
You would not need to wash the dried flowers. I doubt there would be bugs, nothing to keep bugs interested. And I don't actually know how potent the dried flowers outside are. I will have to ask my friend. By the time I got back from Idaho beginning of July, all my flowers outside were dead and I didn't think to take them.
Nice job!! Thanks for sharing. I have Yarrow growing here and it's very happy. It's providing lots of beautiful flowers, tinctures, and currently, I'm infusing some leaves in oil. Can't wait to make salve with that. A wonderful topical.
Our ground is rock, too. I have been trying to figure out how to grow some medicinals in my yard without taking up my garden space. I may just pick a bed and use it.
Loved this, Kaye! My yarrow transplanted easily in fall here in Arkansas. I have dried some yarrow and feverfew just in case. Currently harvesting echinacea flowers, dont have enough to get roots yet. Mimosa tincuring now, along with lemon balm, tulsi, and chamomile. I grew all from seed except the mimosa.
Oh, my! You've really got it going on! God my first tulsi plant growing, 2 chamomile plants came and went. I've heard about mimosa. Echinacea is cone flower. I have 2 dozen blooms, what should I do?
@@Latebloomershow Kaye, I dry my petals on paper or a tea towel and then in a jar when dry. I add them to my herbal tea when I feel a sore throat or cold coming on.
Thank you, Kaye! Another great medicinal video. I'm using your Amazon link to get the Lost Herbal Remedy book! I' m still harvest the wild prickly lettuce seeds. Friends of mine back in PA want some too. I'm also typing up my sweet relish canning recipe using collard stems and green garden purslane stems. I don't mix the two. I make two different batches.
@@Latebloomershow I am trying to get my butt in gear and accomplish things to which I have committed. Also have you heard about the study that has come out stating that Sweet Annie/Sweet Wormwood is therapeutic for malaria? A tincture of that helped me during the 'rona event.
Kaye, thank you so much for these instructional videos. I'm a long time gardener, but still I learn so much from you. I went online and bought the book you recommended. The one thing I've never been good at is making my own compost. I have big gardens so I have bought bulk compost for a number of years. Do you make any of the compost you use or do you buy it?
I have a 3 bin compost area, and I do save it all, but I'm not good at making it. I dump everything in there and expect it to be good at some point. The first bin we emptied, when I had help last year, and put it on the side garden where all the volunteers came up (see yesterday's "I was filming a July Garden Update and this happened," video) So, it must have been good, but because I didn't ever turn it, it was big chunks, not soft at all. For convenience I get some forest mulch in bags (no chicken manure) that is very reasonable at Lowe's. I'm almost out. I also buy a truck (7 scoops) load of "garden soil" from a local nursery once a season which has some manure, sand, a little compost and topsoil all mixed together. I just don't make nearly enough compost for this big operation. So I must supplement. I just started a bin down in the lower garden to toss all but the diseased leaves.
There is a bill in Congress. So, it could happen, but might not. As for Canada, I think they passed the bill. See my top pinned comment. Also, look up the history of John D. Rockefeller. You will be shocked.
@Kaye Native Kentuckians pronounce it like Yar-n Yarrow. Not to be rude, maybe they say it different in Tn. I learned the hard way when I first moved to Ky in 97 from Fl after 27 years and Upstate NY for 16 where I lived as a farm girl and Florida was never home. However I had married a Native whose family farmed the sea [which I loved], unfortunately after 4 children in 4 years I became the punching bag in 85 so I high tailed it out of there while raising my children as a single parent. I thought I'd never get back to my roots, come to find out my mothers family tree showed her ancestors landed in Ky 300 years ago from England, my dads from Germany landed in dutch country Pa. Home is where the heart is, I wanted to be in touch with my roots so desperately I moved up here Beverly Hillbilly Style without the shotgun. In the back of a dump truck with my 2 sons while my 2 girls rode in the front with my driver brother, the truck was tarped over with the exception of one tiny corner area, enough space for the 3 of us to sit cross legged indian style. It was a long ride and took us 29 hours at 50mph, I forgot to mention 2 -80lb dogs and 7 kitties came with. Ya just gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes Kaye, so don't you fret none that your yarrow area isn't that big, in time it will Bloom with you as a late bloomer :). Have a great weekend
No worries at all, Sandra! Thanks! I've tried to relearn this since you wrote it. Sorry to just now respond. I did read it right away. I saved some seeds, the rest finished blooming and are dropping seeds. So much focus this week has been on the corn and raccoons and kitty drama, I haven't even looked to see if the yarrow transplants are settling in. OMG!!!! What a life story! WOWOW. So, is KY where you stayed? Do you have a garden? Tell me more.
@@Latebloomershow did you get a chance to view the dimming I mentioned your name on Dane wigington Channel thanking you for pinning my comment your new loyal find Derek.
Well, they are in the same HUGE plant family Asteraceae (Daisy), but, common yarrow has a white center. I think Fleabane looks more like Feverfew. Now, sometimes plant apps get it wrong. If I have any doubt, I'll take 2 or 3 pics and see if the result is consistent.
I was able to watch this video at the perfect time. It’s a cool day in Columbia Falls MT and I’m planning on harvesting some yarrow. Wasn’t sure what to do with it. Now I know. Thank you for sharing and teaching. Well off to harvest Yarrow. Thanks again.
I'm going to have to see if we have some of that along the edges of our yard. I did make the wild lettuce tincture today. How long do I let it go before straining it?
Yeah, I keep her in the house. Not sure if I'm going to let her out or not. Since they don't get along, I'm sure she will leave and go to the other ladies house. And keeping her inside, she stays out of poison ivy and so I can pet her in my lap.
@@Latebloomershow Yes keep little Patch in the house where she won't be bullied and she'll be safe with you and keep you company when you are inside. Your older kitty won't live forever and the other lady won't keep Patch in the house.
How do you use the tincture? Do you put a drop or two of it directly onto your tongue when you're feeling sick or do you mix a few drops of it with water, or your chosen drink, and consume it that way?
I would do in water or juice, but I think either is fine. If you look at my community page posts from this week, you will see I finally got them bottled up.
How do you keep the venomous snakes from making a home in your long grasses & yarrow ? I have moved to Mississippi (from the W.coast ) and have been missing my hours in the garden because I fear the snakes and fire ants here. Haven’t seen any snakes in the two years here but the fire ants are horrid - can’t do my composting because of them.
Well, IDK except I guess if they are there, they go and come when I'm not looking. I am going to cut the meadow next time the mower comes. It did not produce how I thought it would.
I like your style of teaching us about herbs thank you for your work you can't imagine how many people are healed after going the herbal way I did thanks to all of y'all posting these same videos love you keep up the good work
I thought it was called Valerian. They look the same to me. I can't wait to bring my new kitty home in about three weeks. She is all white, with spots like a Dalmatian and a black mask around her eyes! I discovered why my other cat can ignore or hear me so well; apparently, she has 32 individual muscles per ear.
I had to look that up, as I'd love to be growing Valerian! It does look similar but says it can get to be 5' tall and has a sweet scent. Yarrow, no scent and only as tall as you saw in the video. I had NO idea about the cat ear muscles! My senior cat cannot hear well at all now. Patch (who your kitty sound a bit like) can walk in the room when she is sleeping, lounge on the floor and she will never know, unless she is looking right at her and sees her moving.
I grow Valerian and it's very distinct from yarrow. Different leaves and the valerian will perfume your whole yard! The flowers aren't as compact as yarrow.
How to make tincture without alcohol You can create effective tinctures without using alcohol by substituting it with alternative solvents. Here are some methods and options: Vinegar-based tincture: Use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar as the base solvent. This method is suitable for herbal tinctures, as vinegar can help preserve and extract the medicinal properties of plants. Glycerin-based tincture: Glycerin is a natural, non-toxic, and non-alcoholic solvent that can be used to create tinctures. It’s particularly effective for cannabis and herbal extracts. Glycerin-based tinctures have a longer shelf life and are less likely to spoil than vinegar-based ones. Oil-based tincture: Use a carrier oil like coconut oil, olive oil, or canola oil to extract the medicinal properties of herbs. This method is often used for topical applications or when a more gentle extraction is desired. General Steps for Making Tincture Without Alcohol Choose your solvent: Select the alternative solvent you prefer (vinegar, glycerin, or oil). Prepare your herbs: Dry and chop your herbs to ensure even extraction. Combine herbs and solvent: Mix the chopped herbs with the solvent in a clean glass jar. Steep and infuse: Allow the mixture to steep and infuse for the recommended time (varies depending on the solvent and herb). Shake the jar daily to ensure even extraction. Strain and filter: Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter to separate the solvent from the herbal extract. Store the tincture: Transfer the extracted liquid to a dark glass bottle and store it in a cool, dry place. Tips and Considerations Always use high-quality, organic herbs and solvents to ensure the best results and safety. Adjust the ratio of herbs to solvent based on the specific herb and desired strength of the tincture. Keep in mind that vinegar-based tinctures may have a stronger flavor and aroma than glycerin-based or oil-based ones. Glycerin-based tinctures may have a longer shelf life than vinegar-based ones, but still require proper storage and handling. By following these methods and guidelines, you can create effective tinctures without using alcohol, making them suitable for those who prefer or require non-alcoholic alternatives. Follow up How do I ensure the quality and potency of my homemade tinctures, and what testing methods can I use? Can I customize the extraction time and solvent ratio for specific herbs and desired medicinal properties? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using vinegar-based tinctures versus glycerin-based or oil-based tinctures? 🌐 thespruceeats.com How to Make a Herbal Tincture With Vinegar, Not Alcohol khromaherbs.com How to Make a Tincture Without Alcohol - Khroma Herbal Products
Just don't kill the bugs , please, there is a reason for seasons and bugs to help out in this universe. We are all way behind in understanding each other , the earth and beyond. All we all do wars for destroying our being the keepers of the universe. This promised by our creator is set us to be , not not to be inhumane . There will be the day of Human perfection after all ignorance and selfishness behavior. Keep it up . I love you for your beautiful work. May God bless us all and our children.
Good to know! Haha, I forgot about them with the garden pressure last year. I see they are coming up and starting to put up bloom heads. Plus I have a huge 5'xx5' area chock full in the yard. It was mowed last year, so it's got to regrow. I have it cordoned off.
I like you I like your video but I find them a little wordy. I wanted to know how to do what your title said and you didn’t say it till 3/4 the way through the video you also didn’t say whether or not we need to sterilize the jar that the final texture goes into before we put it in, I would’ve liked to have known that. You seem like a lovely lady.❤
Yes, I know I do that. Thanks for the feedback. There is good and important information in there, but some folks just want the nuts and bolts, so to speak. I don't write a script, and I just try to be as informative as I can. No, sterilization is not necessary as you are putting 40% alcohol (80 Proof, at least) in that jar, just a clean bottle. I haven't read anywhere that you need to sterilize the amber dropper bottles. Of course, it would not hurt.Thanks for the kind comment. Blessings to you.
Hi, Kaye! New follower and enjoy your content but disappointed in a couple of things you claim that are untrue/inaccurate. My in laws are French. They never had their internet shut down and the French government has never made threats or even discussed shutting the internet down. I am Canadian and live in Canada. I am a budding naturopath and runs in my family. The Canadian government has no interest of banning supplements and banning/shutting down naturopath clinic/practitioners. The federal government is hoping to strengthen its regulatory power over natural health products, such as vitamins and homeopathic medicines. The federal budget proposes amending the Food and Drugs Act to extend powers by the Protecting Canadians from Unsafe Drugs Act (also known as Vanessa’s Law) to natural health products. Their reasoning is that these changes would protect the health of Canadians by enabling regulators to take stronger action when health or safety issues are identified with natural health products on the market. There is no mention of banning or shutting anything down in Canada.
Welcome! My only claim is that I saw a viral video expressing concern about the banning of supplements, and that there was talk of possibly shutting down the internet in France. I always advise for people to do their own research. I'm glad you did. See the pinned comment from a Canadian fan who checked out the bill. You need only to look at the dirty deeds of John D. Rockefeller to know the ultimate intent is to make natural medicine and practitioners illegal. Hopefully, there will be enough of us to keep this from happening. Blessings and again, welcome to my channel. Tomorrow, dill pickling!
Interesting I seen this all over the internet too about banning supplements so some how the information is out there. So best to prepare if not true awesome but if true you have knowledge on alternative.
Yarrow is a VERY AGGRESSIVE SPREADER. 3 yrs from now, if you cut that lawn back it'll be a packed 3 foot circle. In 5 yrs it'll be a menace to your lawn.
is there an alternative to alcohol to make tincture or another way to obtain the same benefits from yarrow? i just don't like to drink alcohol. thank you for the video 🤍🕊
Double feature coming up in 40 minutes! Hope to see your name in the live chat window! ruclips.net/video/HF-nJdxZb00/видео.html ruclips.net/video/BcEAthv2woE/видео.html
You aren’t “drinking “ it. You are taking one or two DROPS at a time. That’s all. You can use other methods but they are not as strong or potent. The amount of alcohol you are taking is equal to a ripe banana. Yes there is alcohol in a ripe banana and many other fruits.

Finally had the opportunity to test Yarrow for its clotting capabilities. Was mushroom hunting and my daughter accidentally cut her finger, it was pretty deep and was bleeding heavily. We grabbed some yarrow growing on the trail and it immediately stopped the bleeding and also took her pain away. The most amazing benefit though (that I wasn’t aware of) was how quickly her wound healed! It probably could have used stitches but after two days it looked like a scratch. Never seen anything like it. Definite must have in any medicinal garden.
I planted a very large medicinal garden for preparedness. It’s so beautiful and I absolutely love watching how it is evolving. I think everyone needs to grow the basics, not sure what’s co in but I do know it’s not good. Grow your own food and medicine.
Please share you medicinal plant list so far!
@@Latebloomershow it’s a long list! Self Heal, Elecampane, ashwaganda, astragalus, licorice root, marshmallow root, comfrey, wormwood absinthe, mugwort, sweet Annie wormwood, holy basil, echinacea, yarrow, lemon balm, mints, feverfew, several sage’s several thyme’s, kitchen herbs (also all medicinal) valerian root, bergamot, calendula, borage, cleavers, nasturtiums, hyssop, chamomile, clary sage, lavender and I know I’m missing a lot.
What I did was take a square 44’x44’ and I broke that into 4 squares where I have grass walking paths going around it so I can walk barefoot. I can’t even tell you how amazing and beautiful this garden is. Full of life. It was a lot of work but well worth it.
Strictly Medicinal Seeds is an invaluable source for seeds. You can buy whole collections. I also go out and wild harvest things like elderflower, fireweed etc.
My grandkids are always bleeding from something. There outside battling nature. They now pick and chew it up themselves and apply it. Then go back to playing. They don’t even tell me till later. They helped me pick and make medicine with Mullen yesterday. So much to learn and teach!! Appreciate the videos.
I learned herbalism 50 yrs. Ago. Never too old or too smart to still learn. I see by your videos you have a character like my own. I have done some things you probably won't find in a book.
Very interesting I hope you enlighten us ? I hope Kaye connects with you to share these thing you reference.
I love yarrow. Thank you for this video, great and necessary information ! Beautifully shot. And YES, more herb videos!
God bless you, my friend, love you!
I would to see more medicinal herb videos.
Thanks! I will make them.
Once you have Yarrow, you'll always have Yarrow. LOL I transplanted ONE root a couple years back. I now have a HUGE patch of it. And it's now starting to grow up randomly. EVERYWHERE. It's like Holy Basil (Tulsi). Once it's there it will always be there. I'm happy to have both Yarrow and Tulsi all over the place. Love the kitties!!!
EDIT: I have got a nice library going on all types of Herbal Medicine. It has certainly been an adventure. I just recently added a couple books from Dr. A.B. Howard. I had to print both books from a PDF because they are out of print. I have an old printer that came through like a champ. I put it all in page protectors and then into spiral ring notebooks. Thrift Books is also a great place to get used copies of amazing books on Herbs and Herbal Medicine.
I'd love to see more videos on this!!
I have not heard from you (at this name) for awhile! Good to hear from you! My yarrow grows up randomly in the lawn and gets mowed. I hope this little yarrow rock garden takes off. It will be a challenge to grow in such thick crabgrass, etc. I'd love for you to make me those books. I am hopeless at getting things like that done. I bought a new printer a year ago, because the new printer I bought before I left LA didn't get used for a year and the heads turned to concrete, and it's never been connected to my computer. I need a secretary and a housekeeper, so I can garden and make videos, haha. God bless you.
@@Latebloomershow Boy, I could sure use a housekeeper, for REAL. You have no idea. LOL
I haven't been myself. It's a long story. It started in January. VERY long story. Also, my oldest just got out of the hospital. She was in there from June 16th to July 5th. She had emergency open heart surgery on the 19th of June after they got rid of her pneumonia. Again, a long story. My heart hurts. God is holding me up. That's the only thing I know to say. My mind and heart have not been in a good place at all.
The storm we had a month ago distroyed my garden. But, it will all work out. I have hope with that issue.
I sure would love a copy of that book. I don’t have room in my little cabin for a printer. If you’re interested I’d prepay you for a copy. :) Doesn’t hurt to ask. 🌷
🥰 love finding Tennessee gardeners. I’m a little west of Nashville. I started more medicinal plants this year, they are still little but I’ve been able to make tea. Going to try tinctures next. I have anise hyssop, feverfew, chamomile, Borage, Bergamot, yarrow, lavender, lemon balm and probably a few others…lol plus attempting vegetables in this crazy TN weather. I would love to turn my front yard into mostly flowers, less mowing the better.😊
I have a dehydrator but prefer to put in baskets and set around my house. Dry naturally. For anyone who does not have a dehydrator.
Good Tipp,thanks
Do not over water. Grows great in dry crapy soil!
It’s in my meadow. Only gets rainfall. Good advice!
I'm all about learning herbalism. If I were to go back to school (I'm 64) that is what I would study. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you, I will! Please share!
Yes the medicinal plants are what we will need if SHTF.
Yes! I'm working on another video now.
Thank you for saying that about the Internet and that we need actual books to read for this knowledge in case something happens. The Internet is not a guarantee. It could be gone at any moment and people do not realize.
It won't be gone, but censorship is going to strangle us getting to the truth. Glenn Greenwald in a Tucker podcast last night fights relentlessly for 1A, wherever it is being infringed. He says Canada is pushing it harder than any place and other countries are watching to see how far they can go. They all want to control their citizens. Our constitution and Bill of Rights guarantees our freedom however current administrations around the world (except El Salvador presently) and pushing censorship of internet.
I guess we know what industry is behind any bill to ban supplements and home remedies in an effort to protect their profits.
Yep.
Good Morning Kaye - We all need to learn this lost art and skill to make our own medicines. I used to have some yellow yarrow in my yard but I think only the white and pink varieties can be used medicinally. Need to research if you are on blood thinners as this might not be the herb for you due to it's clotting properties. Wishing you a blessed day and week ahead..
Yes, just at the end of editing, I looked up that pomegranate yarrow I mention in the video and saw there are a ton of colors, and they say it is prohibited to propagate it. Therefore I imagine I don't want any of those mixing in my yard. As much as I love color, I'm sticking with "common yarrow." Pinned!
I transplanted some wild lettuce into my yard garden. So far so good!
Yay! That big plant in my video is now 7' tall with the flower spikes! I want to make another video!
Be careful! I made the mistake of allowing wild lettuce to grow and it has taken me years to get it back under control. It’s a wonderful blessing to have but it can take over. I have tried to harvest it before it goes to seed.
Well done video Kaye- now sit and enjoy a cup of tea! I have valerian as well as yarrow as others have said. Their leaves are very different, similar looking flower-valerian flower has a sort of vanilla sent. Adding medicinal plants every year, need some feverfew. Migraines can be controlled by eating a leaf or two a day. It’s bitter like aspirin I’ve heard. Anyone know more about this plant?
I want valerian and yes, bitter, I've heard. It's takes a lot of other essences to make a delicious valerian tea.
I have the very same medical book ,love her work ,I've even ordered some of her tinctures, thank you for the video more of the same please ,your cats are beautiful, love is the key, always 💞 🐈 🌿☘🌻🌹
Thanks so much! I do, too! So much to rediscover that was phased out in lieu of pharmaceutical company products. Love is the key. God is love.
Please do more medicinal plants.
I will! Thanks so much for watching and please share with a friend!
I also have her book and use often
Wonderful! Thanks for watching! Check out today's video on wild lettuce redux!
What is the book?
“They” have always been about destroying supplements to advance their control.😡 I bet it’s even more important to them now. Thanks for all the info Kaye. Such a beautiful plant. I have Stephen Harrod Buhner’s book, “Herbal Antivirals” and want to get his book “Herbal Antibiotics”. Packed with information. Was that a pink poppy near the yarrow, or a cosmos?💚👏
If you look closely in the last shots, I have both books sitting beside the dehydrator! Only because, maybe it was you, someone left a comment about them. I wanted to secure them ASAP. Thanks for being such a great support to this channel. God bless!
Yes, it was a poppy! I did not spread cosmos down there (although it may wind up there as I have it in the flower garden), only wildflower seeds. And there is another that came up abundantly in the meadow, Goldenmane Tickseed, with yellow petals and reddish center, so cute! Did you see it? If you have a place to scatter wildflower seeds, consider the packets they sell at Hoss Tools. Use my link for a discount on any Hoss Tools product!

Beautiful share Kaye!
thanks so much! Is this Jill?
Yes more medicinal plants. Very good. Exc post. Thak you, Kay God Bless
More to come!
I have more than 100 yarrow plants growing in my driveway, front and back, in a dirt and stone driveway. I also have comfrey as tall as me taken up 2 yards. Also Valerian thats 8' tall everywhere
Wow! I'd like to get some valerian! What zone are you in, and does your comfrey die back and come back? I have yet to plant mine in the yard.
Zone 3. Yes the comfrey goes dormant for winter. It's the first plant to come up in spring. The bees love it in bloom. I don' know how to send a plant by mail. Restristions for certain states. I love the smell of their flowers
Sorry the smell of the valerian flowers
Loved this! I need to get to work now on my yarrow patch that is absolutely beautiful but also medicinal! Thanks for this and I love watching the kitties! I’ve got 6 kitties myself and they are all special with their own personalities!
Something is eating our low on the plant tomatoes here in E TN
Turtle?
More, More More medicinal videos please Ma'am.
I know I have many medicinal plants around the little woods I have here at my Condo. I'm afraid to try them. I'm thinking if the bugs are eating on them they surely are safe 🤔
Yes, that makes sense. I will, soon, right now I'm battling fungal disease on tomatoes and beans, and the lack of rain. Stay tuned!
Great info. Thank you. Commenting for the algorithms. 😊😊😊 Hope you're doing well, Kaye.
Thank you! You too! I appreciate you!
Thanks girlie girl...we have yarrow growing all over growing wild this year and I need to harvest some. Love the music in the background. BTW, I just use girlie girl as a pet name assuming you're not offended bc I'm a woman as well and from the South and use to nicknames. I have relatives in N California and they are far advanced from me in harvesting and using wild herbs, so appreciate the vids. Subbed your chnnl.
Wonderful, welcome! Not offended in the slightest! I need to harvest some, too!
Yes, please. Any videos on herbal medicine , tinctures will be helpful. I've begun making tinctures. I believe I started in the fall. I'm doing extracts also. I got 10 half pints of cowboy candy last night, plus a large jar of the brine left. I waterbathed it along with the candy. When I have jalapeños, I'll have enough brine ready for several jars!! I finally found a rosemary plant and still payed a terrible price!! I got it planted and watered in just before a storm. I hope it does well. Now I need to find some spearmint. When I trim my Lantanas back, I transplant them over my yard. I did 2 different places last year and they are looking well. I try to plant native, that don't require a ton of water.
I'd love to know your process! Please weigh in on tomorrow's dill pickling video with Darrell!!
So useful! Every time I watch a video, it deepens my appreciation for natural herbs. Thank you so much
You are welcome, thanks!
Just saw this video for the first time today. I liked and subscribed. I got interested in medicinal plants a couple of years ago. I started using wild lettuce for pain, and it has made a huge difference for me. I planted yarrow seeds this spring, and I got one healthy plant growing. I used it last week when I cut a finger. It did seem to help, but I didn't use it correctly. From here, I'll see if I can find more of your videos, but I wanted to tell you that I would like to see more like this about other medicinal plants. I have read that Fever Few is good. I planted seeds, but none have come up yet. Thanks for the yarrow info.
Wonderful! I have a playlist you may find interesting. I'm still relatively new at the medicinal plants journey, even though I've been on youtube a long time, 8 years for urban gardening. Now, I have a veritable pharmacy in my yard. I just have to ID and use the weeds. Hope to hear from you often. I have not had success with feverfew but will give it another try this spring. ruclips.net/video/WPbXKq7bDsw/видео.html
Sorry to take so long watching and commenting - My son and I went to see The Sound of Freedom yesterday - It's an awesome film, and the subject matter is handled exceptionally well. Needless to say, I had chores waiting when I got home and supper to make. As always, a lovely and informative video! I learn so much from you, my friend! I will be looking for this in my adjacent landscape, or possibly planting some here. I also wanted to tell you that I've discovered flea bane growing on the county property across the street! Unfortunately, they mowed before I could harvest it. I've noted when it appeared on next year's calendar and will definitely get some of that!
Yes, fleabane seems to be just a spring thing. My mower was going all around every little patch, but that heat wave ended it. Thanks so much!
How do you use fleabane?
Yes
I have that Yarrow too. Live it.
Thank you so much for this video. I have yarrow outside and now I know what to do with it. Very exciting!
The other thing I would’ve liked to known is, can I use Yarrow that is already dried that is planted outside can I save those flowers? It would be hard to wash dried flowers that are already going to seed to get the bugs out.
You would not need to wash the dried flowers. I doubt there would be bugs, nothing to keep bugs interested. And I don't actually know how potent the dried flowers outside are. I will have to ask my friend. By the time I got back from Idaho beginning of July, all my flowers outside were dead and I didn't think to take them.
Nice job!! Thanks for sharing. I have Yarrow growing here and it's very happy. It's providing lots of beautiful flowers, tinctures, and currently, I'm infusing some leaves in oil. Can't wait to make salve with that. A wonderful topical.
I need to do that!! Recipe?
@@Latebloomershow Which? The salve? Let me know and I'll send the info. :)
Thank you for this information 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️♥️♥️😇
You are so welcome and Welcome to my channel!
Our ground is rock, too. I have been trying to figure out how to grow some medicinals in my yard without taking up my garden space. I may just pick a bed and use it.
Raised bed with some topsoil/garden soil. Yarrow will grow in even the crappiest dirt lol
Beautiful plant
Would love more of these videos. I’m going to get this book. Thank you 🌸
Awesome! Thank you!
Loved this, Kaye! My yarrow transplanted easily in fall here in Arkansas. I have dried some yarrow and feverfew just in case. Currently harvesting echinacea flowers, dont have enough to get roots yet. Mimosa tincuring now, along with lemon balm, tulsi, and chamomile. I grew all from seed except the mimosa.
Oh, my! You've really got it going on! God my first tulsi plant growing, 2 chamomile plants came and went. I've heard about mimosa. Echinacea is cone flower. I have 2 dozen blooms, what should I do?
@@Latebloomershow Kaye, I dry my petals on paper or a tea towel and then in a jar when dry. I add them to my herbal tea when I feel a sore throat or cold coming on.
Thank you, Kaye! Another great medicinal video. I'm using your Amazon link to get the Lost Herbal Remedy book! I' m still harvest the wild prickly lettuce seeds. Friends of mine back in PA want some too. I'm also typing up my sweet relish canning recipe using collard stems and green garden purslane stems. I don't mix the two. I make two different batches.
Oh I can’t wait for that! Lmk! I pulled out a ton of purslane today but there’s a ton more
@@Latebloomershow I am trying to get my butt in gear and accomplish things to which I have committed. Also have you heard about the study that has come out stating that Sweet Annie/Sweet Wormwood is therapeutic for malaria? A tincture of that helped me during the 'rona event.
Kaye, thank you so much for these instructional videos. I'm a long time gardener, but still I learn so much from you. I went online and bought the book you recommended.
The one thing I've never been good at is making my own compost. I have big gardens so I have bought bulk compost for a number of years.
Do you make any of the compost you use or do you buy it?
I have a 3 bin compost area, and I do save it all, but I'm not good at making it. I dump everything in there and expect it to be good at some point. The first bin we emptied, when I had help last year, and put it on the side garden where all the volunteers came up (see yesterday's "I was filming a July Garden Update and this happened," video) So, it must have been good, but because I didn't ever turn it, it was big chunks, not soft at all. For convenience I get some forest mulch in bags (no chicken manure) that is very reasonable at Lowe's. I'm almost out. I also buy a truck (7 scoops) load of "garden soil" from a local nursery once a season which has some manure, sand, a little compost and topsoil all mixed together. I just don't make nearly enough compost for this big operation. So I must supplement. I just started a bin down in the lower garden to toss all but the diseased leaves.
If you use 100 proof vodka, it should sit 6-8 weeks. If you're using 80 proof, it is best if it sits 8-12 weeks.
Thanks!
Most of my backyard is yarrow. Now I know what to do with it all. Thanks for teaching us, Kaye.
You are so welcome!
I didnt know they might ban supplements!! all of this is so sad. thank you Kaye
There is a bill in Congress. So, it could happen, but might not. As for Canada, I think they passed the bill. See my top pinned comment. Also, look up the history of John D. Rockefeller. You will be shocked.
@Kaye Native Kentuckians pronounce it like Yar-n Yarrow. Not to be rude, maybe they say it different in Tn. I learned the hard way when I first moved to Ky in 97 from Fl after 27 years and Upstate NY for 16 where I lived as a farm girl and Florida was never home. However I had married a Native whose family farmed the sea [which I loved], unfortunately after 4 children in 4 years I became the punching bag in 85 so I high tailed it out of there while raising my children as a single parent. I thought I'd never get back to my roots, come to find out my mothers family tree showed her ancestors landed in Ky 300 years ago from England, my dads from Germany landed in dutch country Pa. Home is where the heart is, I wanted to be in touch with my roots so desperately I moved up here Beverly Hillbilly Style without the shotgun. In the back of a dump truck with my 2 sons while my 2 girls rode in the front with my driver brother, the truck was tarped over with the exception of one tiny corner area, enough space for the 3 of us to sit cross legged indian style. It was a long ride and took us 29 hours at 50mph, I forgot to mention 2 -80lb dogs and 7 kitties came with. Ya just gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes Kaye, so don't you fret none that your yarrow area isn't that big, in time it will Bloom with you as a late bloomer :). Have a great weekend
No worries at all, Sandra! Thanks! I've tried to relearn this since you wrote it. Sorry to just now respond. I did read it right away. I saved some seeds, the rest finished blooming and are dropping seeds. So much focus this week has been on the corn and raccoons and kitty drama, I haven't even looked to see if the yarrow transplants are settling in. OMG!!!! What a life story! WOWOW. So, is KY where you stayed? Do you have a garden? Tell me more.
Enjoyed every minute.
love it thanks for all the good information
Always smart and beautiful, GOD BLESS 😇🌷🇺🇸☕
Thanks, dear James!
Excellent video new subscriber thank you.
Welcome!
@@Latebloomershow did you get a chance to view the dimming I mentioned your name on Dane wigington Channel thanking you for pinning my comment your new loyal find Derek.
I thought we had Yarrow in my sisters yard, but the plant ID said Feverfew. Looks just like Yarrow
Well, they are in the same HUGE plant family Asteraceae (Daisy), but, common yarrow has a white center. I think Fleabane looks more like Feverfew. Now, sometimes plant apps get it wrong. If I have any doubt, I'll take 2 or 3 pics and see if the result is consistent.
Feverfew is great too! My feverfew is larger than my new Yarrow. I’ve used both in tea :)
I was able to watch this video at the perfect time. It’s a cool day in Columbia Falls MT and I’m planning on harvesting some yarrow. Wasn’t sure what to do with it. Now I know. Thank you for sharing and teaching. Well off to harvest Yarrow. Thanks again.
I'm going to have to see if we have some of that along the edges of our yard. I did make the wild lettuce tincture today. How long do I let it go before straining it?
6-8 weeks. Wonderful!
MORE MORE MORE❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you
You're welcome
Hi Kate,
Where is Patch? Haven’t seen her in the videos or you talking about her. Hope all is well. ❤
Yeah, I keep her in the house. Not sure if I'm going to let her out or not. Since they don't get along, I'm sure she will leave and go to the other ladies house. And keeping her inside, she stays out of poison ivy and so I can pet her in my lap.
@@Latebloomershow Yes keep little Patch in the house where she won't be bullied and she'll be safe with you and keep you company when you are inside. Your older kitty won't live forever and the other lady won't keep Patch in the house.
Sorry for the typo in your name. I meant to type Kaye. So nice that Patch is an indoor cat now. Love your vids! ❤️
Can I use all tipes of colours
I finally caught up with your videos!!!! ❤
You were working at it, for sure! Thanks so much!!!
How do you use the tincture? Do you put a drop or two of it directly onto your tongue when you're feeling sick or do you mix a few drops of it with water, or your chosen drink, and consume it that way?
I would do in water or juice, but I think either is fine. If you look at my community page posts from this week, you will see I finally got them bottled up.
YA ROW
Thanks!
Need more books.
Yes, very interested in herbal medicine, more videos please, thank you for your time and knowledge 😊
More to come!
How do you keep the venomous snakes from making a home in your long grasses & yarrow ?
I have moved to Mississippi (from the W.coast ) and have been missing my hours in the garden because I fear the snakes and fire ants here.
Haven’t seen any snakes in the two years here but the fire ants are horrid - can’t do my composting because of them.
Well, IDK except I guess if they are there, they go and come when I'm not looking. I am going to cut the meadow next time the mower comes. It did not produce how I thought it would.
Can you use powdered yarrow for the tincture ?
I have not read that anywhere. Somehow I don't think you would get the desired effect. But, powdered would work in salves I read.
I like your style of teaching us about herbs thank you for your work you can't imagine how many people are healed after going the herbal way I did thanks to all of y'all posting these same videos love you keep up the good work
Ridiculous about banning supplements. I hope that doesn’t happen but nothing surprises me anymore.
I thought it was called Valerian. They look the same to me.
I can't wait to bring my new kitty home in about three weeks. She is all white, with spots like a Dalmatian and a black mask around her eyes! I discovered why my other cat can ignore or hear me so well; apparently, she has 32 individual muscles per ear.
I had to look that up, as I'd love to be growing Valerian! It does look similar but says it can get to be 5' tall and has a sweet scent. Yarrow, no scent and only as tall as you saw in the video. I had NO idea about the cat ear muscles! My senior cat cannot hear well at all now. Patch (who your kitty sound a bit like) can walk in the room when she is sleeping, lounge on the floor and she will never know, unless she is looking right at her and sees her moving.
@@Latebloomershow maybe you can plant and transplant some Valerian. : )
I'm growing valerian and they have different leaves.... but when it goes to seed it looks like that with flowers at the top...
@@GardenGoddess2 cool, thanks! : )
I grow Valerian and it's very distinct from yarrow. Different leaves and the valerian will perfume your whole yard! The flowers aren't as compact as yarrow.
Thank-you. Can i use apple cider vinegar for the tincure? I had to quit drjnking 23 years ago so really dont want to use vodka. Thank-you
How to make tincture without alcohol
You can create effective tinctures without using alcohol by substituting it with alternative solvents. Here are some methods and options:
Vinegar-based tincture: Use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar as the base solvent. This method is suitable for herbal tinctures, as vinegar can help preserve and extract the medicinal properties of plants.
Glycerin-based tincture: Glycerin is a natural, non-toxic, and non-alcoholic solvent that can be used to create tinctures. It’s particularly effective for cannabis and herbal extracts. Glycerin-based tinctures have a longer shelf life and are less likely to spoil than vinegar-based ones.
Oil-based tincture: Use a carrier oil like coconut oil, olive oil, or canola oil to extract the medicinal properties of herbs. This method is often used for topical applications or when a more gentle extraction is desired.
General Steps for Making Tincture Without Alcohol
Choose your solvent: Select the alternative solvent you prefer (vinegar, glycerin, or oil).
Prepare your herbs: Dry and chop your herbs to ensure even extraction.
Combine herbs and solvent: Mix the chopped herbs with the solvent in a clean glass jar.
Steep and infuse: Allow the mixture to steep and infuse for the recommended time (varies depending on the solvent and herb). Shake the jar daily to ensure even extraction.
Strain and filter: Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter to separate the solvent from the herbal extract.
Store the tincture: Transfer the extracted liquid to a dark glass bottle and store it in a cool, dry place.
Tips and Considerations
Always use high-quality, organic herbs and solvents to ensure the best results and safety.
Adjust the ratio of herbs to solvent based on the specific herb and desired strength of the tincture.
Keep in mind that vinegar-based tinctures may have a stronger flavor and aroma than glycerin-based or oil-based ones.
Glycerin-based tinctures may have a longer shelf life than vinegar-based ones, but still require proper storage and handling.
By following these methods and guidelines, you can create effective tinctures without using alcohol, making them suitable for those who prefer or require non-alcoholic alternatives.
Follow up
How do I ensure the quality and potency of my homemade tinctures, and what testing methods can I use?
Can I customize the extraction time and solvent ratio for specific herbs and desired medicinal properties?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using vinegar-based tinctures versus glycerin-based or oil-based tinctures?

Can the entire tincture be eaten?
You don't eat tincture. You strain off the plant material and store the tincture in an amber drop bottle and use a few drops in water.
yarrow grows in poor soil so don't baby the transplants. Great video.
Good to know! Haha, I forgot about them with the garden pressure last year. I see they are coming up and starting to put up bloom heads. Plus I have a huge 5'xx5' area chock full in the yard. It was mowed last year, so it's got to regrow. I have it cordoned off.
Who Knew?
I like you I like your video but I find them a little wordy. I wanted to know how to do what your title said and you didn’t say it till 3/4 the way through the video you also didn’t say whether or not we need to sterilize the jar that the final texture goes into before we put it in, I would’ve liked to have known that. You seem like a lovely lady.❤
Yes, I know I do that. Thanks for the feedback. There is good and important information in there, but some folks just want the nuts and bolts, so to speak. I don't write a script, and I just try to be as informative as I can. No, sterilization is not necessary as you are putting 40% alcohol (80 Proof, at least) in that jar, just a clean bottle. I haven't read anywhere that you need to sterilize the amber dropper bottles. Of course, it would not hurt.Thanks for the kind comment. Blessings to you.
Great videos, but too long, you could cut them down to 7-10 minutes!!
Noted! I wish I knew how to condense the information more. I need a scriptwriter and editor!
Awh, you're doing fine and we appreciate all your time and effort.💜
Hi, Kaye! New follower and enjoy your content but disappointed in a couple of things you claim that are untrue/inaccurate.
My in laws are French. They never had their internet shut down and the French government has never made threats or even discussed shutting the internet down.
I am Canadian and live in Canada. I am a budding naturopath and runs in my family. The Canadian government has no interest of banning supplements and banning/shutting down naturopath clinic/practitioners. The federal government is hoping to strengthen its regulatory power over natural health products, such as vitamins and homeopathic medicines.
The federal budget proposes amending the Food and Drugs Act to extend powers by the Protecting Canadians from Unsafe Drugs Act (also known as Vanessa’s Law) to natural health products. Their reasoning is that these changes would protect the health of Canadians by enabling regulators to take stronger action when health or safety issues are identified with natural health products on the market. There is no mention of banning or shutting anything down in Canada.
Welcome! My only claim is that I saw a viral video expressing concern about the banning of supplements, and that there was talk of possibly shutting down the internet in France. I always advise for people to do their own research. I'm glad you did. See the pinned comment from a Canadian fan who checked out the bill. You need only to look at the dirty deeds of John D. Rockefeller to know the ultimate intent is to make natural medicine and practitioners illegal. Hopefully, there will be enough of us to keep this from happening. Blessings and again, welcome to my channel. Tomorrow, dill pickling!
Interesting I seen this all over the internet too about banning supplements so some how the information is out there. So best to prepare if not true awesome but if true you have knowledge on alternative.
Looks like poisonous hemlock....
Which?
Yarrow
Poisonous hemlock have purple stalk.
Yarrow is a VERY AGGRESSIVE SPREADER. 3 yrs from now, if you cut that lawn back it'll be a packed 3 foot circle. In 5 yrs it'll be a menace to your lawn.
is there an alternative to alcohol to make tincture or another way to obtain the same benefits from yarrow? i just don't like to drink alcohol. thank you for the video 🤍🕊
I will have my friend respond who knows more than me, Theresa

You aren’t “drinking “ it. You are taking one or two DROPS at a time. That’s all. You can use other methods but they are not as strong or potent. The amount of alcohol you are taking is equal to a ripe banana. Yes there is alcohol in a ripe banana and many other fruits.
