      *GINKGO* is not Native to Canada or USA...it is an Immigrant Tree , Originally from China.
      The Ginkgo was , first introduced in America in 1764. (258 yrs ago) and has flourished .
      I know an elderly Asian herbalist , who made a soup broth , using GINKGO.
      He was in his late 80's and his mind was sharp as a samurai sword.

    Years ago my VA aunt had a Ginkgo Biloba tree growing in her yard (Tidewater). She was growing it because she appeared to have the beginning stages of dementia...to my knowledge she never used it as tea or any any type of medication...sad because it might have helped her. It was a beautiful tree and the leaves were so interesting.

    What a blessing to have beautiful ginko trees growing in your region! I haven’t tried ginko for many years, but now that I am older I am going to try it again, thank you for the reminder. I live in northern Alberta, Canada, and it is already so dark by 5 pm, and I find myself affected by the lack of daylight more as I get older. I’ve had success with lion’s mane mushrooms for brain fog, but I am going to try ginko as well. God bless!

    I was studying in China for a few month (supposedly a year but covid strikes) and have the opportunity to witness the majestic gingko tree turning yellow and shedding. Although it can be quite an annoyance when there is strong wind and the campus is literally packed with the tree everywhere, on every roadsides within the campus growing for what seems to be only somewhere like 30cm apart from each other.

    Thank you for giving Ginkgo the love it deserves. When I was a kid we had a property here in Argentina with a 100 years old ginkgo in it, it was the best thing of the property, so majestic and beautifull. I was 7, and at my 40s I still remember it. Sadly the people who bought the house took it down, but made me love that ancient tree. I read that one of the reasons why it{s called "The tree of life", it´s because when Horoshima bombing happened, the only few trees that survived were Ginkgos.

    I love ginkgo trees! When I lived in San Jose CA. There was a street near my home that had ginkgo on both sides for a couple of blocks. When the leaves were falling, I loved driving down that street. It was like being in a boat that created beautiful gold waves. I would love to be able to take ginkgo for the memory aspects, but I am one of those people who are naturally free-bleeding and tend to bruise whenever I even rub up against something.

      My Mom broke her leg and was given lots of drugs and then followed the “Virus” so her mind was not good. I gave her ginkgo three times a day (tincture) and her brain fog started to clear. It is essential for her and she is still using it. Nothing helps as much and we have tried a lot of others as well. I do understand it is a bit of a blood thinner so we keep that in mind.

    As I was watching this, I’m getting ready to head out to the few ginkgo trees I discovered near my home. Spent a lot of the last 4 years dealing with memory issues from a procedure on a brain tumor (I wish I never had done). Supplements are too pricy and I’ve been moving towards building my own apothecary. Didn’t get a gingko tree in my yard this year like I wanted but foraging will hopefully hold me over until I get one next spring. Thank you both for sharing!

I've learned a lot in the past two weeks while I wait for my next payday so I can get set up with my own apothecary homesteading herbalist journey 😊. Also watching you tend to bee's has given me a new found respect for bee's. I just can't have them here where I'm staying Because my roommate's husband is severely allergic to bee's. One sting could kill him in less than 30 minutes. So when I'm blessed with my own property I'm definitely going to have to attend a bee's school or whatever it's called because I want to be completely self sastainable. I think I spelled that wrong but I think you know what I'm trying to say hahaha 😂🤣. Till next time I'll be watching your TH-cam channel for more homesteading herbalist ideas 😊

    like if i have a tincture thats been made out of rum or brandy -how do i know what dosage to use?
    plus -a good topic is about alcohol -is expensive alcohol better than cheaper alcohol ?
    is glycerine really worth the hype for tincturing?
    can we use "vegan honey" for making tinctures ?

      @@TheHoneystead another question i have is this - when making your tinctures that your going to sell ,does it have to be a special
      alcohol percentage ? like 20 % - or 30 % - or can it be what ever the alcohol percentage was when you first began?
      because its kind of like selling alcohol in small bottles. i guess what im asking is .do you have to water down your tinctures to meet approval ?
      are ALL tinctures a certain percentage?
      another thing question is how do you sell your tinctures online ?
      is there any special laws you need to worry about ?
      is this a good business to get into ?
      will we see your tinctures at CVS ,or Walmart any time soon ?

    Hmmm … what you mentioned about the precautions.
    At the age of 69 this begins to sound like a disturbing refrain … (at least to my ears.) I read these precautions and know they are necessary … am grateful for them. But it also makes me a little sad.
    My husband has what they call a “protein S deficiency”, and develops blood clots, (they say it’s heritable), but there are WHOLE FOOD GROUPS that he gets precautions on, particularly because he’s on a blood thinner. That just doesn’t seem right to me😞😢🤔
    That’s one of my motivations for learning herbalism. May God use this to bless us both health-wise!!!

      I was wondering the same. My husband has protein S deficiency as well and has been on blood thinners most of his life. We have always wanted to somehow get him off of them (safely of course) as his blood levels would change drastically with the increase in vegetable intake. The most important aspect would be finding the right formula and dosage, taking the herbal medicine consistently and monitoring blood levels during the transition and afterwards (which he had to do monthly anyway when he was on wafarin). What's crazy, is we have a ginkgo tree in our backyard!

    If tinctures need to be storages in amber bottles, why are dried herbs stored in clear bottles?

    How do you recommend using ginkgo biloba powder?

      @TheHoneystead  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I haven’t used the powder, but maybe in capsules. I’m sure their is a dosage chart on powders.

    I have a tree in my yard and I dug up a seedling and potted it in the early spring. It grew 4' over spring and summer. It's sweet little, bright yellow leaves just fell off and the big tree still has a plenty. Do you harvest the leaves when they are yellow or when they still have green on them? I really want to harvest some before it's too late, if it isn't already. Really guess I will need to research what to do with the harvest. I have only made a golden rod tincture so far, but really want to do more. Excited about your website and I really need a good starter book.

    I found a place that carries the male ginkgo because it doesn't grow fruit which leaves a sticky mess (according to them) but does the male tree have all the medicinal properties? Does the fruit have any? Should I get both and if so where do I find the female tree?
