When do you do that? Soon? Any kind of pine? I have lots of pine in my yard. I've never noticed catkins.

I harvested these on March 25th last year here in Georgia, so perhaps just a little later up there? I think they are from a longleafpine. I got the idea from @nateonsteemit when he shared about them. These were nice and fresh. The ones I pulled off a week or so later had already started to release their pollen and dry out a bit.

Thanks. I'll definitely keep an eye out for them, on my trees, which I have always called white pines.
Here's a video I just found. This guy makes the tincture with catkins around 8:30. Very informative! He even makes beer with the stuff!
That's a great video! All that pollen looks familiar. 😂Crazy that so many of us go so long without realizing the abundance of resources so close to our fingertips. And for free!

...and having lived a natural life. That's what is impressing me today. Plants that have lived according to nature's principles, not man's. There they are, at the ready, freely given. We can thank them as we take them for our own nourishment. Connected. Not sure what I am trying to say. Yet.

Woah, already getting pine pollen?!!?
I was talking about that magic stuff with someone, and he said out that it's actual human testosterone. So have fun doing roids!!! (IDK if this is true, but it's gonna be my new joke)
All I know for sure is that I have never once had a bad day after taking my pine pollen tincture, and I'm making a LOT more this year so I can share.
Should be popping up soon! I definitely want to harvest more this year, so happy you shared about it so I knew to look out. And that is funny about getting jacked on it. Maybe I should try some before a workout. 😂 I would be curious how some beer would turn out!

Yeah, plenty of folks use it as a workout supplement. That's actually where I first saw it, was a working out chick who was raving about it for energy, weight loss, and muscle building.
