My oats are getting milky!

[Guest guest]

The two beds of oats planted in the spring are starting to come

to that milky stage, ripe for harvest and tincturing. I used up so

much of that stuff over the fall and winter helping people out that

were rundown, stress out, and tired or mildly depressed. It's kind of

funny, I've got probably 150 square feet or so planted to them and

just a small section is enough to make a lot of tincture. That means

oatmeal this fall. It's interesting noting the difference in soil

quality in the garden areas which were planted to a combination of red

clover and oats last year. Heals the land and heals the people.

For myself I find fresh oat straw or even field grass makes an

infusion that is just as if not more effective than the tinctured

milky oats. Lots of interesting effects from that, ranging from more

youthful complextion to increased libido. Grass gives more trace

minerals than any other land plant tested by the agricultural

researchers.

They are in the milk when the seed are filling out and not dry yet. Open one seed and it will be softer than dry oats and white color. If you wait too long to cut it, then the seed will fall to the ground.

I've never tried oat tincture... I might be tempted (wouldn't take much..lol) to trade for some of that... lol.. I did not realize oats got milky... where have I been (spending too much time with the goats I guess)... Thanks for the info Chris.
