Default What medicinal plants can I grow and how would I use them?

Does anybody grow medicinal anything? Im kinda interested in it but know NOTHING about it. So what do you grow and how do you use it? I'm especially interested in things that can be grown in containers.

I'm growing purslane and chamomile. The purslane I plan on just adding to a green salad. The chamomile I will use for tea.

Default Re: What medicinal plants can I grow and how would I use them?

So chamomile is straightforward to use (I think!) And that helps you calm down, right? does it do anything else?

What in the world is Purslane?! I'll have to google it but I dont think Ive ever heard of it before.

So if I grew calendula how would I use it? I have used calendula ointment before to help with wound and rash healing but dont know what I would do with the plant.

See what I mean about clueless? Haha.
