RE: Drying the Mullein Harvest - Wildcrafting Mullein for Lung Health

in #wildcrafting7 years ago

Hi @riverflows. I am also asthmatic and hence why I am very interested in mullein. I wildcraft the plant, don't weed it out of the garden. But I will be cultivating it in the future as well as selling mullein seeds in the near future.

The mullein infusion drinking is along term investment for lung health. I do also smoke the first year mullein leaves for short term relief. It is not as effective as an inhaler but a decent expectorant and safer.

I am also looking into getting some osha root tincture for when I have the worst cases of asthma, it's supposed to be a good relief/antihistamine.

Thanks for the inspiration to make a more detailed post on mullein. I would love to do that at some point in the near future :) I will be back out to the mullein patches soon to harvest seed and that would be a good time. Thanks for turning me onto @medicinewheel also, I will post on other herbs from time to time and it's nice to know that you are providing this amazing curation feed! I'd like to support your efforts

Amazing. I think a detailed post on your personal approach to asthma and the herbs that help and and their benefits would be a great #naturalmedicine post and I would love to read it ! 💚

Wonderful suggestion! I'll keep that in mind for a future post :)
