    Is it okay to harvest all of a small plant like plantain that is growing in my yard? Or should I leave some out of respect and love for the plant? I'm new to all this stuff and I want to do right by the earth and its bounty.

    PLEASE, IF YOU SEE THIS....please help!! We have enjoyed blossoms and ripe fruit from many wild elderberry trees. Yet, when we moved, we bought Adams and Johns varieties and planted them near flowers and fruit trees (pollinator attractors) and each year the 'patch' gets bigger with new growth. They bloom nicely and then begin to set berries....and while the green berry is small (approx. BB size) THEY DROP. We have NEVER harvested ripe berries. Any suggestions???

    It doesn't really "draw out" the venom. That might happen to a small extent. It's the allantoin and the tannins. They bind the metalloproteinases in the venom. You should also continue to chew on it - not just a poultice. The poultice would be recommend to be much larger in size than that. I would keep chewing and rubbing on the skin - you want plenty of those compounds to absorb in. The compounds absorb through the skin (that's why the poultice - fast absorption through skin...) Note that this is not a recommendation - just what I understand of the matter.

    Hey man, don't listen to the haters. I'm christian & I'm also aboriginal, I don't think what you're doing is sacrilegious nor cultural appropriation (well maybe, but it's also nice). You don't need to listen to them. I think it was Very Good that you included that gratitude. People need to know that. (Though, as a hard of hearing person, they are right about the music.) You are out here living your best life & I am happy to watch your videos. If they don't like your videos, they don't need to watch. Stay true to yourself & stay loving!

    As an FNMI person, I could be offended or suspicious, but I actually love how you respect the plant & fungus medicine with Smudge. Normally I wouldn't burn smudge or tobacco for a plant, my smudge is usually sage where I live, & we crumple up tobacco at the base of the plant, but whatever indigenous person you learned this from, I'd say trust them more than me because they are actually present & my nation is probably different. I think it's great that you are respecting the world in a way that is (at least similar to the practices that are) familiar to the land you live on.

    How safe is it to use plants that grow alongside the road? Everything I hear is either "it's fine, nature knows how to deal with any toxins", or "don't use anything within 500 miles (exaggeration i know) because of pollutions, etc... Reason for me asking is because I LIVE by a highway and I don't have access so any pristine fields to go foraging in. . . At a bare minimum, can I at least try and harvest seeds to sow later? Thanks!

    I have been looking for nettles around the river banks and bushes here in Ontario with no luck! A friend of mine gave me some seeds 2 years ago. I have been trying to grow nettles in the pots indoors since then. I love this amazing plant. I can't wait to harvest some nettles to enjoy yheir health benefits when they grow stronger. Thank you very much for sharing this amazing info. Anybody who knows where I can find nettles in Toronto area, please let me know and I will be grateful. Thanks.

    I am lucky to have a Plantago Major plant variety which (unusually) is growing in cultivated ground, has enormous leaves & is remarkably large & healthy. WARNING the seeds should only be taken with LOTS of water, preferably soak them first. Just eating the seeds alone can create a condition whereby the seeds then expand & clump once in the gut, & the clumps stay there, causing adverse effects upon the gut - which are the opposite effects to what you might have hoped for !

    Hello from Michigan, my husband and I bought our homestead four years ago and I noticed this beautiful plan the year we moved in never thought anything of it, till this year when I came across a video talking about it, we have it growing wild in our woods, I'm feel so blessed to have over 30 plants growing wild. I plan on harvesting, I still am watching videos about this amazing plant. I have chronic rheumatoid arthritis. Back pain that never goes away. Thank you for sharing. Till next time God Bless.
