you should also strain you tincture and tea as the hairs can irritate your lungs, through coffee filter or cheese cloth

I'm curious... how would a tea or tincture irritate the lungs unless you're inhaling it, in which case you'd at least choke on the liquid. 🤔

Mullein has very fine hairs. I strained once using a regular strainer and it irritated my throat. I always use a coffee filter to strain.

Thanks 🙏🏻 Great advise to harvest a plant that grows so well and so effortlessly. My only problem is that roadside harvest is never a good idea due to endless contamination. It grows fabulous in our chicken yard. We have dozens of large healthy plants 🌱 every year.

thank you. just got some mullein seeds to grow for myself next spring.

Thank you for sharing! I've been learning about how to use our wild plants for various things. I've noticed this particular plant growing everywhere and thought to myself 'I wonder if that fuzzy little plant is good for us?' And today I have my answer!!! Thank you 😊❤️😇

Liked, shared with a whole bunch of people, and subscribed .😀

I’ve been wondering what this plant was for 35 years. We used it for toilet paper while camping and I assumed Native Americans used it for that same purpose. Finally got my answer.

Hi. Can you tell me about the seeds. When is the best time to get the ripe seeds for growing in my yard. I found some at the entrance to my subdivision but they aren't nearly as healthy looking as the ones I found in my local park. Also, how often do I need to collect the flowers?? I can't go to the park daily.

Hi Christine. I personally have been learning of mullein and it's uses since last year and maybe a but longer. I found it growing in my yard and decided to look it up. This year about 15 or so plants came up! The first year it is rosette shaped that grows near the ground. The second year it sends up the long stalk that will flower. We had about 7 to ten that flowered. I would go out and pinch the flowers off as they matured and I made the olive oil and mullein flower oil for earaches. Now it is September and the leaves and tall stalk has started drying up. The tall stalk where the flowers were is now where the seeds are. Because it us on my property I cut just below the flowering stalk, took a large bowl then turned the stalk upside down and gently tapped the stalk and the seeds began falling into the bowl. They are very very tiny seeds. I also pulled up whole stalks forvthe root.

Shouldn't we wash the leaves?

You can use the flowers or leaves to make tea for the same benefits without the tincture. Make sure you filter your tea through a coffee filter, I find the leaves a bit irritating to the throat if you don’t filter the tea through a coffee filter. Leaves are great to smudge or smoking and the flowers make the best tea with some honey.
