You made this 4 years ago and I wish I'd seen it 14 years ago. I have this chore of a weed all over my yard... I also have/had: Crohns, HS, fibroid tumors, uterine prolapse, rosacia, cyctic acne, and debilitating anemia. It's like God has been yelling at me this entire time and I wasn't listening.
I love this idea! Thanks for sharing, I might try that myself this fall. They are in the buckwheat family, so that makes sense that they could make a similar type pillow inside
@@Herbal_Jedi Loving your videos. Still having problems with confidentially identifying the young plants. But I am trying to watch on a small phone. But when you were talking about identifying you didn't show a close up of the leaf you had in your hand or a close up of the young plant you dug up with the pitchfork. But the picture of the grown plant definitely looks familiar. I have some in the unmanaged part of my property. Anyway I'm on a mission to find a certain herb or weed, not even sure what to call it since I haven't found it... Or maybe I have but you just didn't mention a certain use for it since so many of them have numerous benefits...lol.. doubt if that made any sense... Anyway on to one of your other videos... Thanks for sharing your knowledge, so glad I found your channel.
These lectures are the most comprehensive that I've seen. From plant identification, harvest time, useful plant parts, through to medicinal preparations, I can't thank you enough for being so thorough! Excellent!
We just found a bunch of yellow dock and came to identify it... had no idea what amazing medicinal properties we had growing right here!! Thank you so much for the energy and passion you put into this presentation. ❤
I work in an little herb shop. I send customers to your you tube often. This one will be another one I will pass on. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I was actually look for yellow dock a few months ago, and had no clue it grew in my yard! I ended up making a deco room with burdock instead, because I had it on hand. It was for a mom that was anemic after a post partum hemorrhage and blood transfusion. She reacted badly to the pharmaceutical iron supplements. The dedication worked and in a month she was feeling herself and bloodwork showed she was no longer anemic!
I got a bumper crop growing up in the pastures where I live. Pretty soon it will be mowed down and I have no control of that. It's a "noxious weed" and must be eradicated along with the dyers woade.
So great info on yellow dock, going out now to get some from the yard....yeah I use to dry and get rid of it,like the poor dandelion ...Now thx to educational casts like yours I'm in the know!!! And back to what Real Medicine Once Was💪👍. My question is how long do I let the root dry!?I heard u say yours was a couple days drying .is that all thats needed or is there a longer period for drying .thx for what ya do....Im a beginner and love this amazing information. Wonderful day to you
We’ve been using a spit poultice of yellow dock leaves on FIRE ANT bites the last few years. It works amazingly well to cool down the hot sting in seconds.
For me it's a life saver with the number of ants we have in the desert. I chew up the leaf and apply it to the ant bite. I have leaves frozen in the freezer to have them available at all times.
Granny taught us to put a dock leaf, on our skin, if we got stung by nettles. These 2 plants were introduced to BC from Great Britain, as herbal medicines, so she recognized them when she arrived from Scotland.
Every day is an adventure! There are a few plants that work even better for nettle stings. It's easy to prove their validity with even one test! Leaf of: 1) purslane (Portulaca), 2) goldenrod, or 3) garden geranium (Pelargonium spp.), along with scented geranium. 💜
@@loismegin8036 Hi Lois, thanks for sharing. Another confirmation for the work that I do with the Chinese 5 Elements!! Plantain is another plant that carries an Earth vibration (but very few people are able to grow it far north of the tropics zone). Stinging nettle carries a Water vibration. Hence the 5E mnemonic: Earth dams Water, which means that Earth vibration plants overpower, or weaken the effects of Water vibration plants. 🏋💜
Thank you much for elaborating on several uses of this herb. You get right to the point so we don't have to waste a lot of time on the intro. of a video like some teachers do. Man I really appreciate your teaching style sooo of course I subscribed without being prompted to do so.
I had actually dug up some yellow dock yesterday and had soaked the roots. I planned on cutting them up and creating a tincture today with it. When I seen this video in my notifications I was pleasantly surprised!
Great video. Thank you! I have been eating dock leaves regularly from my garden but I was digging my potatoes today I ended up digging up a dock root and now I know what to do with it!
Ty very much, for sharing this knowledge. As one w/ A.L.S., I’ve been reversing this deadly disease for over 1 1/2 years ( through nutrition ) I’m sure burdock and yellow dock will help! 🙏⚡️✅
Loved the content and the way you present it. Yellow dock is one of my favorite herbs for cleansing the body. I find it wonderful how these herbs that help clear out that stagnation in the gut are also very appropriate for the skin. Teaching is how one affects the other.
Thank you your an amazing person I'm going to get a tincture ordered today. I used to drink alot of alcohol and the last two years I've been experiencing some pain tightness feeling in my liver. I've changed my diet alot of fruits and vegetables. God bless you. Namaste
I learned loads watching this, and I'm almost certain that we have the same plant as a weed on our allotment plot so this is something we could use. Thank you!
i keep looking at them here in Vernon, ive felt very attracted to them, now i know why, the things you say its good for i could use, I love you vids!!!!!
Love the new video style . Informal practical and funny. I was allways taught to use dock "weeds" for nettle stings. They seem to grow as companions in the uk. I have been using home brew fire cider scince my elderberry /vodka tincture ran out. As part of a anti viral/ immune supporting regime.. So I'm off to get some rumex crispus . I'll try the honey and apple cider viniger tincture. Thanks so much . Peace
SO APPRECIATED IT!!! You are my new teacher!!! Learned a lot!!! Been picking up the leaves and adding them to our soups and making my own facial cream LOL but had no idea about the root!!!! Missed so many roots already!! THANK YOU!!
Stay out of my brain Yarrow. I went hunting for curly dock yesterday. I saw a bunch of second year curly dock growing up and down the road. It seems to be a cleaver and curly dock year here in Pittsboro, NC. One comment I took note of last week was that people with covid are showing up with increased levels of free iron in the blood and skin discoloration appearances and I immediately thought of yellow dock. Would it be ok to use this with cleavers?
I always enjoy your videos because they are packed with so much useful information on the herbs themselves. But I VERY much appreciate this one because you take time to show us how to make it into a useable medicine. Many don’t understand how to make into something that can be used and I have encountered many who are intimidated by the process. Thank You Herbal Jedi!!!
I've noticed that certain 'weeds' grow in proliferation at certain times in my permaculture garden. On reflection and with a bit of research they are always the plant needed at that time for particular things that need attention in the body...for example borage has been abundant since I needed that to help with the onset of menopause and plantain major bloomed when hubby came back from the amazon with a new friend leishmaniasis...poultices and tea really helped the wound healing! We've got a lot of burdock at the moment^^ Great channel!
Hello Yarrow, I just came across this video. I noticed that it's probably a little old, but either way, I totally enjoyed it. You have a way of teaching that really keeps me focused. I have to thank you for that because that can be a problem for me. Please do more videos on different herbs the way you did this one, I found this to be so helpfuI, I'd love to see more of this on UA-cam. I think I've watched every other video that you have done over the past. But there are tons more herbs out there, I know, and I am sure you could teach us something about all of them! Thanks again for your expertise and wonderful way of teaching!😊
I keep saying it, but every video I watch is even more interesting than the one before (that was already so cooool! :)) I can't believethat Yellow Dock is the same species and Curly Dock, the plant that comes up thick and fast in our garden ALL the time.. I love the plant, feel guilty removing it (it really is prolific here, and very healthy!), but now I can thank it and use it! And I can thank you again, because your videos are making my journey into the herb world so much more fun! Awesome! 🌱🌻🎋🍀🌾🍄🌼🌹🌿
Yellow Doc has oxalic acid in it and so this tends to block iron absorption. People with Anemia stay away from oxalates because they block iron absorption. I had a blood disease (Polycythemia) where I had too many red-blood-cells and I took oxalates to reduce my red cells and it worked, so my Hemoglobin went from 55 gdl's down to normal at 16 gdl's and even after two years it is still normal.
Thank you for this video! I may forget to like everyone, but I love all of your videos. I think your character is just so relaxing and no not showy as mentioned. Keep them coming! What clippers are you using in your video? I need those.
I do have some good ones but I’m aways looking for better with cutting up things like Fallopia Japonica and Lactuca Verosa. Thank you so much for responding!
Thank you for sharing more plant medicine! Been pondering ways to use yellow dock on the farm I work at here in Lawrence Kansas. Happy to share with friends and continue to co create
I thought fall was a good time to harvest roots? Also, I read that the roots will turn yellow quickly. My tincture I made hasn't changed color. Any suggestions? Thank you for your wonderful and informative content.
I love this video!! Thank you for all of the wonderful information. I never knew much about dock, but it has been quietly calling to me from the sidelines, and to learn about its affinity for the blood and help with skin, liver, and hormonal regulation is so much that I need right now! I will blend it with a cleavers tincture I already have, and perhaps a burdock one that I’ll make as well. Love the idea of an oxymel. 🌿
I'm about to make my wife a jewelweed salve for her poison ivy, but thought I'd include some other healers from around the house and make it sort of an all purpose cooling skin/ bug bit salve. I've got jewelweed, plantain, and bergamot. And thought I'd also add this yellow dock. My question is what part if any would be most effective? Leaves or root? Or both? And any suggestions/ thoughts on this combination in a salve?
Thank you, Yarrow, for an clear and concise instructions. I am a naturopathic student and I want to move into herbooogy. Finding your channel is a sign for me that I am going into the right direction. Thank you!! Question : do you know anything about dock and burdock leaves juice as a medicine? Is it more or less potent than the root tincture? Thank you!
Another awsome video...good job. A question about the tincture...can it, after setting, be reduced and used as an oil. I'm thinking of this for long term storage and volume reduction. The question is dosing/potence related.
If you miss harvesting yellowdock in spring, is it better to wait until following year to harvest? Or is there still benefit in the root as fall approaches?
I put some of my yellow dock root in vodka to make it tincture but I tried to dry some of my yellow dock root and put it in the food processor to make like a powder for tea or to add to something else maybe in cooking or and it doesn't grind up any suggestions or can you even eat dried yellow dock root
Thank you for such an informative video, i currently have dried yellow dock root and wanted to ask what measurements you would suggest so that i can make a tea out of it? Thanks in advance
So enjoyed your videos .. just so much information to be speeded thru so quickly. Could you possibly put notes as to what your getting, how, where, recipes, what plants look like, and when alcohol (vodka) is added, you drain it off after 2 weeks? Save or toss it? Then what? Add more vodka to store or what? Those roots that’s sat in it for 2 was, do they soften? How do you work with them?
So is blanching the leaves and stem be OK to use for eating. Also are leaves and stem not use in tincture.🤔🤔 thank you for all you do in medicinal medicine.🥰🤗
It is beginning ofJanuary here in the Southeast and already have some growing in my yard, but you said early Spring.Is it too soon to harvest roots? Also just sampled a young leaf and it was DELICIOUS!!😋 THANK YOU!
awesome ! thanks for all the great tonic. I love this herb. can you do one on black goji ? I'm growing it and red now . so calming and different from red.
How about for shingles symptoms? Fascinating info here Yarrow! I LOVE leaning about the very common and oft overlooked powerful herbs for my medicine. And those that grow in my local food (medicine) shed !
@@Herbal_Jedi yeah thanks I have gut health issues big time and I’m just learning, I’ll subscribe to your Channel and hopefully you have some videos on how to make these, like the apple cider vinegar. You went through that one too fast for me and a few things I don’t understand about it, I don’t use alcohol so the ACV would be better for me, I do have the digestive issues and the redness around the eyes and cheeks. I’m visiting in northern Minnesota right now and this plant is everywhere but it’s probably not the best time to go after the leaves.
You said at the beginning of the video it was a member of the buckwheat family. The flower heads, seed heads are quite productive in summer. I am curious as to what are the uses for the flowers and seeds?
Emily BH it’s true, a better leaf ID shot would be helpful for those that don’t know this plant. Though I will say that this is an easy one to identify and there are lots of great resources for ID, but much less for actual use and Medicine making. That is part of the reason I tend to focus more on that aspect of the plants I do videos for.
You made this 4 years ago and I wish I'd seen it 14 years ago. I have this chore of a weed all over my yard... I also have/had: Crohns, HS, fibroid tumors, uterine prolapse, rosacia, cyctic acne, and debilitating anemia. It's like God has been yelling at me this entire time and I wasn't listening.
It does seem like herbs offer themselves where they are needed!
I dried the seeds and removed the husks....and I made the most comfortable pillow with the seeds! I sleep like a baby! Lol
I love this idea! Thanks for sharing, I might try that myself this fall.
They are in the buckwheat family, so that makes sense that they could make a similar type pillow inside
Do you have some secret to removing the husks? Sounds like that would take 10 years Lol

We’ve been using a spit poultice of yellow dock leaves on FIRE ANT bites the last few years. It works amazingly well to cool down the hot sting in seconds.
It typically grows near nettle and is great for nettle stings too!

Granny taught us to put a dock leaf, on our skin, if we got stung by nettles. These 2 plants were introduced to BC from Great Britain, as herbal medicines, so she recognized them when she arrived from Scotland.
The leaf stalk and central stem of the leaf is the best part of the plant to cure nettle stings.
Every day is an adventure! There are a few plants that work even better for nettle stings. It's easy to prove their validity with even one test! Leaf of: 1) purslane (Portulaca), 2) goldenrod, or 3) garden geranium (Pelargonium spp.), along with scented geranium. 💜

I LOVE leaning about the very common and oft overlooked powerful herbs for my medicine. And those that grow in my local food (medicine) shed !
Yes making a yellow dock ointment is a classic treatment option for shingles. Lots of people have seen good results from working with it.
@@Herbal_Jedi yeah thanks I have gut health issues big time and I’m just learning, I’ll subscribe to your Channel and hopefully you have some videos on how to make these, like the apple cider vinegar. You went through that one too fast for me and a few things I don’t understand about it, I don’t use alcohol so the ACV would be better for me, I do have the digestive issues and the redness around the eyes and cheeks. I’m visiting in northern Minnesota right now and this plant is everywhere but it’s probably not the best time to go after the leaves.
I love Dock!
You said at the beginning of the video it was a member of the buckwheat family. The flower heads, seed heads are quite productive in summer. I am curious as to what are the uses for the flowers and seeds?
Anywhere you use buckwheat eg to make a pillow
A close up of the leaves would have been nice but interesting info none the less. Slippery Elm is great for all that you mentioned too!
Emily BH it’s true, a better leaf ID shot would be helpful for those that don’t know this plant. Though I will say that this is an easy one to identify and there are lots of great resources for ID, but much less for actual use and Medicine making. That is part of the reason I tend to focus more on that aspect of the plants I do videos for.
Whenever there is a close up of the leaves I snap a screenshot!
I have broad leaf dock in my yard. Are they interchangeable?
Thanks for your green tips🌱 wild 🐝
