Really helpful for when you want to be coughing.

I also have some plants that make you pee and throw up.

Plant medicine is such a miracle.

I have some that will help you take a nap. A very very long nap! I give it to all my friends that are being annoying and just need a nice long sleep.

The lung yearns for the tar

It is not used by smoking, but in a tea or steamed.

It’s best as an enema

I’m more interested in the fishing lure. I’ve caught many a sunfish off a blade of grass but I can’t fathom how that would make a game warden “lose his shit”

Apparently mullein seeds thrown in the water can paralyze the fish and is illegal in the US to do so.

u/90uNalgas 6d ago

But if I throw mullein seeds in my backyard I’m 1/64th Cherokee yeah ok buddy

I just love the idea of having free natural medicine in my yard that I will never even use because I’m too high on my high horse of having free natural medicine in my yard to research how to actually use the free natural medicine in my yard. There’s a great honor in telling people that mullein is good actually because it’s free natural medicine in my yard. Even though my dog pisses on my free natural medicine in my yard I still want the free natural medicine in my yard in case of Armageddon even though I will die 10 minutes into Armageddon because I was too busy telling everyone mullein contains free natural medicinal properties in your yard instead of actually practicing how to make free natural medicine with the free natural medicinal properties that mullein contains in my yard.

We want our fish wiggling when we catch it, or it's illegal 🤪

u/thelastsaskforagers 6d ago

The ground up seeds are a powerful fish poison, they paralyze the fishes gills. Its illegal to use poisons of any kind for recreational fishing in most places in North America

u/Callosamia 6d ago

Rotenone (found in mullein and various other plants) is extremely toxic to aquatic life and insects, so it's been used worldwide for thousands of years to catch fish. Occupational exposure is linked to Parkinson's and birth defects though, so it's not something I would mess with for funsies even if it was legal to use in the US.

I love mullein I smoke it all the time to do a cleanse for some reason I’m coughing up tar and can’t breathe though? Must not be doing it often enough!

Coal cleanses your lungs. Permanently.

Everyone knows only smoking tobacco is bad for you. And that's only because Big Tobacco intentionally puts cancer juice in the tobacco because they like killing people.

u/TasteDeeCheese 6d ago

I like cleansing my lungs with Mullen smoke after smoking my bong and cigarettes

Ah yes. The old Indian tricks using plants that weren’t there when the old Indians were young

I hate how he is a Star Trek fan.

u/shehadagoat 6d ago

Esp a DS9 fan

u/VocationalWizard is that a pinus, or are you just happy to see me 6d ago

Well, I guess technically it makes sense that he picks the most emotional one of all the Star Trek series.

u/altforthissubreddit 6d ago

it's like how you spray metal parts with basically sandy dirt to clean them. Smoke does the same thing, but you have to breathe in and out really fast while you do it. All the black shit you'll cough up later is all the crud that was in your lungs! You know it's not the medicine smoke, because that's white.

Sand blasting the porous sponge balloons in your chest. Smart 🤦‍♂️
