    I need to find a Ginko tree...quickly, before I forget what I'm looking for and why.

    Success story: Allergy season is coming fast. A year ago I stopped taking prescription medication (I learned on long-term usage some were connected to Alzheimer?!). So I got some stinging nettles, dried them and prepared a tincture with medicinal alcohol (38% Vodka 🙂), included some freshly ground black pepper and 6 weeks later I had my own anti-allergy medicine. A teaspoon before lawn mowing and I am fine. The hardcore test was last summer when I went to Wisconsin. I am highly allergic to some stupid mosquito found in that area. One sting and swelling starts immediately. My arm would get to double size in no time, unless I would take my allergy medication. This time I brought it with me (just in case), but used instead 3x a day my nettle-black pepper tincture (just a teaspoon) and -drumroll- nothing. I got bitten multiple times. But the stings were small red dots gone after a couple of days, with hardly any itching. I am no doctor so standard disclaimer: use at own risk. For me it worked beautifully. I just applied what I learned here on this channel.
    So thank you Dr. Jones!!! 😊👍

Also, rarely, some folks can be more responsive than others to a particular plant (or drug, or food…). Its a good idea generally to start an herb at a low dose and see how the body responds.

    Wow! I have an enourmous ginkgo tree in my backyard! It is a female one so it drops the fruit with nut in it. So I want to know using it as a tea? You said harvest when yellow, I didn’t know that and did it when it’s green. These trees go yellow fast and then drop the leaves, it’s beautiful!

    I have a ginkgo joke too... It's a true story. My mother lived with me, she was over 80 yo. I gave her some ginkgo. I was gone for a few days. After I returned, I asked her how she was feeling. She said she had not slept well for several nights. She said, no idea why but I've been up all night just thinking, thinking, it's very strange. I laughed and asked her ifl she had been taking the ginkgo at night? She had. It works.

    One place I lived had a gingko tree. Every fall, the leaves would start talking and decide what day they were all going to fall off the tree. I'd go out in the morning, the tree would be bare and the leaves were telling me how they'd made it easier for me to rake. They all stick together so you can use a snow shovel.
