Pine cones
When to collect pine cones to prepare a tincture for stroke?
Seed ripening occurs from autumn to April. During this time, they accumulate the entire range of substances necessary for the normal emergence and development of pine sprouts. The pine cone opens and releases its seeds. They have a small “sail”, with the help of which the seeds are scattered over long distances.
It is best to collect pine cones for tincture at the moment the seeds are released. That is, when the cone has just begun to open.
Pine cones are collected from trees that are 10–15 years old. Typically, such pines are up to 5–6 meters high. And collecting cones from them is not difficult.
From tall pines, the wind knocks them down when the cones are already weakened and cannot stay on the branches. Accordingly, the medicinal properties of such cones leave much to be desired. In addition, old rotting needles fell on the underlying ground. Pine cones become infested by a variety of insects and pathogens. And this poses a danger for a person weakened by a stroke.
So, the best time to collect pine cones is March - April. Although pine cones collected at a later time are suitable for preparing a tincture for stroke. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the longer they hang on the tree. However, they have less medicinal properties.
Preparatory work
Pine cones for preparing a tincture against stroke have been collected. Next, when you get home, you need to sort through them. Ruthlessly reject cones pecked by birds, damaged by insects, larvae and other defects.
Pine cones collected from trees do not need to be washed. Resin, which is necessary for the treatment of blood vessels during strokes, has stuck to their scales. It is enough to remove debris and stuck pine needles. And you can fill it with vodka.
It is better to buy good vodka from a reliable store, otherwise there is a risk of running into a fake. It’s better not to take risks, because the medicine is being prepared for a person weakened by a stroke.
How and when to collect?

- Young cones are considered the most useful. They are harvested in June, in warmer regions - at the end of May.
