    Default danedlions

    lunar fey as far as I know all parts of the dandelion are edible, but usually it's the leaves and root that are sought. With the leaves, the best time to eat them is early spring, when they are very young and tender. With the roots (you can also make tinctures and stuff out of them, they are thought to be nutritional and "purifying") I am told that the best time to harvest them is the latest in fall because that is when they have directed the most of their nutrition back into the root.

    Sorry if this is a silly question, but what are tinctures?
