wild geranium/cranesbill is around $4 per dried pound last I knew,,,no market that I know of for false solomans.


false solomans root can be used as a poultice for boils, bruises and poison oak. I have harvested regular solomans seal for folks with poison ivy and they swear to it.

false solmans is also an astrigentand I do recall reading somewere that it was used in tea for rheumatism.

cranesbill is used medically for Crohn's disease.....

stuff you can do at home are as a gargle for sore throat...........and you can use it for diarrhea too because it is so high in tannin, I've never drank the tea, but i'll bet ya its gonna be very very bitter. I've often thought about tanning hides in it, but havn't done it yet.
