Planting Echinacea

Tips, Tricks

1. If you use MG dirt, use the Echinacea only as a beautiful decoration for your garden.  A better choice would be an organic soil to avoid ingesting any chemicals added to the dirt.  Tons of choices out there at reasonable prices.  
2. <3 love this thanks 
3. I am so curious as to how you learned so much about these things at such an early age?Were your parents survivalists? I am so fascinated and learning a lot from your videos.Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
4. I know the Native American's used this a lot for medicinal purposes and most of it's healing properties are in fact found in the root but I'm not sure if it is the same plant or not. I've never heard it called that. It's often called Coneflower. 
5. I was wondering is this what they call snake root I had an old indian friend I used to know that gave me some of the root cut in half to hold against a tooth for pain had kinda a tingling fresh taste to it and killed the tooth pain like nothing I ever used but he said he gathered it wild and never showed me what it looked like was just wandering if this is the same thing thanks for your time and all the work you have done with all your vids I have learned tons of stuff from you
6. I guess not. These grew fine. The plants I started in this video are on their second year of flowering. They are seeding and spreading on their own now but I am also grow more from seeds to help expand the patch 
7. Did the seeds germinate, I wonder, I have some seeds.
8. I thought that Echinacea seeds needed to be cold moist stratified in the fridge for about 6 weeks prior to sowing them.
9. i love that you have a knife on your keychain! 
10. nah lol I'd say my top 3 favorite medicinal plants would be Echinacea, Turmeric, and Milk Thistle 
11. lol greetings neighbor 
12. Echinacea is one of your top 3 medicinal herbs. What are the other 2 herbs? MArijuana annnd...? 
13. I started echinacea from seeds this year. They are a few inches tall now, just waiting for them to harden off (in alaska here) and then can plant them. I sure hope they winter over and dont die.
14. The seed may take weeks to sprout. I now have about 6 seedlings. Most came up in the soil that I tried to start them in. I basically gave up and chucked the rest of the soil in the pail that contained the seed starter mix, to be used at another time. The little coneflower seeds started to sprout in the bucket, basically. You need to be patient and I think you need to keep them warm with moderate watering, not too much. Sunlight may be a factor too. 
15. Do you have a video on this? I tried to grow Echinacea twice now with no success.
16. Very nice! I believe we have this plant growing in our flowerbed.
17. Great info:-) :-) 
18. thanks for the video! :) 
19. I start most of my flower and veggie seeds in cup trays, however, it's easier to wet the seed starter/potting soil first. Less seed washout. :) 
20. Echinacea is great to add to your herbal collection for it medicinal and nutritional benefits. Thanks for the reminder, I should get some of these myself.
