3 years to harvest? That is quite a lot, I didn't expect that.
❤fantastic
Thank you sir! I was thinking about planting echinnacea in my seed starters
Thorough and effective. Thank you!!
You’re welcome
The petals, leaves & stems are so pretty in tea. ♡
This was really helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome
I love the way you teach. Thanks.
Thank you so much.
Great information. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! Very thorough teaching.
You're very welcome!
Thanks Eric,
We had 3 retaining walls built with raised beds for flowers, so when the snow melts next spring we’ll try our hand at Cone Flower.
The other 3 retaining walls are back filled and will be used for our garden.
Next year we have plans for another 5-6 retaining walls to expand our garden.
After all that is done we plan on building a waterfall on the North end of the house and letting it fall to the lower area of our land.
Awesome! It will be very beneficial for you.
Great information, thanks!
You're welcome.
Great info! I am raising purple coneflower for medicinal purposes. I started one plant last year from seed. This year, I am raising several more with seed from my plant. The info on how to cut leaves for tea was really helpful. And great to know i can harvest roots and still replant part to make new plant. Thanks bunches. 💜💜💜
You're welcome
It's not a weed it's an herb, been around for a very long time. It is a wonderful herb. You may want to look it up and what good things it can help with.
Thank you for this video Eric. 🥰
I really enjoyed your video. Your voice is clear. Your voice speed is easy to follow along with. Your suggestions are helpful. Thank you. One question for you. What alcohol do you recommend for your tincture?
Thank you. I appreciate it. I recommend a high alcohol clear vodka.
Love plants that can be divided
This is awesome. I just made a tincture from dandelions. I want to do a lot more!
Very cool.
Hey, did you ever make that Tincture video? I scanned your playlist and didn't see it. Thanks!
I didn’t. Sorry. I am unbelievably busy.
🕊️YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL 🤍✨ God Bless
Thank you
I like your eggs rack! Where did you get it from???
Thanks. I actually don't like it much anymore because the eggs roll down quickly and break their shells. I did get it on Amazon.
Thank you for showing how to use it! So many people say “make a tea” but they don’t say how much dried material to use so that was really helpful :) I have a plant that is a second year plant but only bloomed for the first time this year (I started it from seed last year). Do you know if those petals and flowers would be good to use or should I wait another year? I’ve heard you should use 2 year old plants but since mine didn’t bloom that first year I’m not sure. :)
You're welcome. You can use the first year petals and flowers. They are still good.
@@CountryLivingExperience thanks for the reply! :)
Watch for video, clean your septic system with aerobic bacteria. After three years, how did it go, did the bacteria solve your septic problem? I might have a similar problem or in the near future. Thank you for your time and attention, big fan from Canada.
Thank you.
The septic treatment extended the life of my system for only another year. My system was too far gone by the time I added the treatment. I had to replace the lines after that. This is the video of us replacing the lines.....ruclips.net/video/6eLIDyqIg0U/видео.html
I don't recommend doing that with bare hands too much, occasionally the spikes are very stabby!
My hands are pretty tough 😉
What about the actual cone? I dried out my whole flowers and was going to grind them up for tea but do I just use the flower petals or is it beneficial to ingest the cone part as well? Thank you !
I have never used them but they may be just as beneficial.
So I’m new to making my own teas. What’s the purpose of drying the leaves if I want tea now?
What does the dried out version offer that the just picked version does not?
Hot water will not really draw out the nutrients from a green leaf unless it is left there for days. Hot water re-hydrates the dry leaves, draws out the nutrients, and dissolves some of the actual leaf into the water. Only way to draw the good stuff out of a green leaf is to use alcohol. That is called a tincture.
I started mine from seed last year and they just bloomed this year, could I safely harvest some flowers and leaves or should I wait another year? Thank you!
You should be fine to harvest this year.
I just came to see you actually put some leaves in a couple of water and drink it. All I wanted to know is can I go out where my echinacea is outside and put it in water see you say leaves and then you mean the leaves like the purple leaves or do you mean the green leaves? It looks like you have both and then why can’t I just some of it like fresh? Do I have to wait for it to dry?
Dry is bests. I have never used the purple leaves.
Do you also have a freeze dryer…I have one and have a question
Yes, I do.
A question and a comment. If I started echinacea in a 1 gallon pot 3 years ago, but only put it in the ground 2 years ago, when can I start harvesting roots? Also, at least for vanilla extract, vegetable glycerin is a good alternative to alcohol. Don’t know why it wouldn’t work here as well.
I would give it a few more years to establish itself. Use the leaves and flowers in the mean time.
It's almost Fall now and the echinacea is drying out on the stem in the garden. Can I still harvest for infusion?
Yes, absolutely.
I cam not get it to grow I've tried for 2 years now from seed. No luck. So do you have tips.
Seed can be tough. You can buy a plant from the store. It is a perennial so you should only have to buy it once.
I had one seed actually make a beautiful little plant this spring--until my puppy found it. I tried replanting it, but only the echinacea paradoxa that I also planted came up. I'm going to cut the top off of a gallon milk jug, just leaving an inch & a half under the handle uncut for a hinge & plant a few seeds in there & leave it outside for the winter. I will make a couple of holes & use a piece of wire to close it & I will leave the lid off. I think it will come up on it's own that way. It can get pretty warm here in zone 7a, so I will need to check the moisture periodically. Good luck with yours, & God Bless!
I started mine with a seed starting potting mix in one of those paper egg cartons, I just placed them on a windowsill and kept them moist. Once they were big enough to transplant outside last spring, I just tore off each "egg" cup from the cartons and planted them directly in the ground, they didn't bloom the first year but this year they did and they are so tall and beautiful! Best of luck. ❤
Can you eat it like a salad?
No. It needs to be made into a tea.
Am I the only one think he was talking about weed at first 😂 sorry 😅
That works too 🌿💝😁 Born and raised Northern Cali girl here 😉
That works also! 😂 but echinacea was in the title so I knew what to expect. 😉😆
