I have tons in my yard this time of year, I really need to pick them and start saving them and dehydrating them

This post saw me digging up a dozen today. Read up on "how to" and "dandelion root" and hit it! Saw a permaculture expert saying dandelions grow where the soil is lacking in calcium. Those roots seek it much deeper and will whither off once that job is done. Interesting.

Sour milk, buttermilk, yogurt, cream - - mix with water and water those spots where you picked those Dandy Lions! Soil loves the casein protein in milk products. Why Round Up is still on store shelves is beyond me with all the lawsuits. It's slow-kill poison to humans, animals, waterways, and it's probably coming down in the rain from having vaporized upward.

weired post. just yesterday i told the kids if they were starving without food one could eat them flowers!

Yeah, Time to reconsider those "weeds" right?

would you provide details on preperation and dose?

I love when my kids pick them all and bring them inside, I never weed them :)

I literally just told my husband this about a half hour ago as we were sitting on our deck and I pointed out that it was good to see these flowers because it means that they are not spraying poison weed killers to kill them. I then told him of their healing powers. And now I see this. awesome.

Wondrous!

And
(a) costs pennies, or uprooted for free
(b) cannot be patented.

DRIVES BIG PHARMA NUTSO

when I was a kid parents did everything they could to kill yellow dandelions in the yard because they were weeds. Dandelions would even grow in the cracks of the sidewalk. But as kids we would blow dandelion seeds in the wind when they blew up into little clouds of puff, and we helped spread the seeds with the wind.

That's amazing! Thank you for sharing!
