Description and growing conditions

Lovage is a herb from the Apiaceae family. with a stem height of 100-200 cm, shiny feathery leaves and small yellowish flowers. After lovage blooms in July–August, the fruits ripen in September. This is a perennial, cold-resistant plant that grows in one place for 7 years.

In addition, lovage has a very aesthetic habit and can be useful in any homestead. The soil needs to be loose, otherwise the roots will be clumsy.

The distinctive feature of the plant is its specific spicy smell, reminiscent of the smell of celery; salty-bitter taste and healing properties. To treat with this herb, you should use infusions and decoctions of the roots. Fresh stems and herbs are used in cooking.

Seeds are sown in early spring and before winter. It is better to pre-soak the seeds in a stimulating solution, since all Umbelliferae take a long time to germinate. Then the seeds are dried to a free-flowing state. Typically, plants are planted at the end of the bed near the aisles or where the trellises for tomatoes or cucumbers end. Since this is a very powerful plant, the seedlings must be thinned out.

Plants of the second year of planting and older are suitable for harvesting medicinal roots. In the first year, greens are consumed. During the season you can get three cuttings.

Lovage is very responsive to watering and organic fertilizers. You can fertilize it with diluted mullein or nettle tinctures. If you do not water it during dry times, the leaves will become small, the shoots will become coarse, and the plant may go into hibernation. Heavy September rains can again awaken the lovage, and it will throw out new tops.

Among the pests, lovage is affected by aphids and carrot flies. Therefore, it is advisable to plant onions, yarrow, and lavender nearby. The appearance of a carrot fly can be determined by the purple tint of the leaves, then they will begin to turn yellow. Of course, rotting affected roots will not be useful for medicinal raw materials, so you need to worry about replanting onions in advance.

Medicinal properties

Lovage for alcoholism is one of the most favorite remedies of our ancestors. An infusion with this herb is mixed into alcohol without the knowledge of the patient. Here is one option for such an infusion: infuse 250 ml of vodka for two weeks with lovage root and bay leaf. When the patient drinks such a drink, he will develop an aversion to alcohol.

Even the well-known soothsayer Vanga recommended taking lovage for alcoholism: grind 30 g of lovage, 20 g of horsetail, 20 g of juniper berries, 20 g of thyme and 10 g of cyanosis root. One teaspoon of this mixture should contain 200 g of boiling water. Boil the mixture for five minutes, then let sit for one hour. Take two tablespoons after breakfast and lunch for a month.
