narrow and broad leaf plantain salve is more like a neosporin - antimicrobial, good for stings, bites, scratches, burns, sunburns, ect. Dandelion salve is used more often for muscle and arthritis pain, joint pain, anti-inflammatory, neuropathy pain, carpel tunnel pain, and muscle spasm pain, ect.
Thanks so much for your great step by step video! I am in the process now, of drying my dandelion buds now here in Connecticut. Then I will follow your video on the next steps. Thanks again!
Thank you so much, for helping me (a newbie) gain the confidence to try this myself! I found your video very informative and your step-by-step instructions seem very easy to follow. Thanks again!
I so enjoyed this blog. Thank you very much. Lol I have a lot of dandelion on my property. I have been feeding it to my goats but no more! Thank You! I’ve saved this video and now will experiment with what you have taught us.
Well done! Not to pick, but the 'L' is silent when you say salve, as in a medication. Saying the word the way you pronounce it is a greeting in a foreign country. I don't remember which country. I look forward to more of your videos.
I have read you can make a great jam and it suppose to taste like honey. In the mts.of North Carolina that make dandelion greens. I haven’t tried them.
So I was trying to make the infused oil and I left it in a dark cabinet for 5 weeks. When I opened it the jar “popped” open and it smelled rancid. Do you think I didn’t let the dandelions dry out enough? I let them dry 24 hours. I used organic extra virgin olive oil if that makes a difference
Cami!! I 💛 this so much!! I’m looking forward to trying this out. Although, I may have to look into purchasing some dry organic dandelions. I started a Materia Medica binder, with a glossary of terms, different plants and their medicinal properties. There’s so much learn!!!! I have a question. My beloved & I just harvested Yarrow, that we grew from seed. As we were harvesting (removing the flower top, and separating the leaves), we noticed these tiny bugs. That was a bit frustrating. We placed the yarrow in the freezer in hopes that the bugs would die. Then we will place them in the dehydrator. What would you suggest when harvesting a medicinal plant, so that you have just the plant 🌱 & not any bugs? 😬
I am sharing this with my mom, she makes a calendula salve that is really awesome. She used to make essential oil lotions and sell them at her farmers market but the taxes and insurance to keep her business going were to expensive. But she still makes them.
Hello Rachel As an artist I too find being taxed taxed then taxed again very challenging when selling my creations. We need to stand up to this by selling privately. The gov created this reality by triple taxing us out of the sphere.
@@thunderbirdsigns yeah its sad, i agree with you on the private sales. My mom was way ahead of her time because all of the products she used to make and sell at her market are really big now. Goats milk soaps, lotins and salves have really taken off in the past 3 or 4 years. Unfortunately she just does it for fun now.
I too have battled the dreaded fuzzies. 😁 Next batch I’ll try picking them, deflowering (removing all green) immediately & *then* spreading out on a mesh to dry 2-3 days just in a room temp room. Heat seems to make them worse. Good luck to you!
I have just made some dandelion salve using the cold oil soak method, having squeezed out the oil from the dandelions I was wondering if they could be used again in another infusion or something else ? 🤩🫶
I finally, after a few years, have convinced my husband that dandelions are good and to stop killing them!!

It can also be used for eczema. I used to make a homemade topical for my friend and he had it so bad but he said it really helped him out a lot
Narrow and broadleaf plantain salve? Do you mean yarrow or is it narrow? Just learning, I’m on 3 rd plant😁♥️
I love dandelions so much and would rather grow them than a pristine lawn! I also make a dandelion/magnesium salve for my diabetic neuropathy.
Thank you, off to pick my dandelions in my garden. Can't wait to make this. Thanks again.
Dandelion salve is awesome and helps so much.

...do you know if I can use dandelions from tea sachet to make this salve ..since the dandelions are already dried?

Thank you for such easy to follow directions on making this salve. It is very helpful.
I love this so much ! I can’t wait to try this !
Also question, how long do you leave it in the oil before straining ?
I think I listened to another dandelion lecture and the teacher recommended 6 weeks.
4-6 weeks
Can I use grapeseed oil or MCT oil?
Can I use a stainless steel bowl?
Can I add dried lavender to it and do them both in step one?
Can I vacuum seal it?
@@jenniferfletcher5425 yes
@@jenniferfletcher5425 yes, or *any* herb❣️
I can never dry dandelion they become a fluff ball. Please help😢

No shade but where are you from that you pronounce the L in salve. It is silent. Otherwise great video😊
What about cat pee...annoying neighborhood cats love my yard
