What do you all think? Does the attached photo work for Make a calendula blossom tincture since it works for Make calendula infused oil?

I might approve if I could see your hand and cutting device in the photo but with the plant only it is too open to interpretation. I personally don't approve photos of the "plant in the garden" when the BB says "picture of the plant being harvested." I'd want to see evidence of harvesting happening or having just happened.

Nice job clipping the part of my post you replied to!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! I've been working feverishly to try and get PEP1 certified by the end of this month. Here are some photos of my PEP endeavor.

so if the pea bb for animal scraps works thats 10. I also have another pea bb https://permies.com/wiki/157712/Grow-plant-cutting-PEA-BB#1236031 mar20 and 1/6 of https://permies.com/wiki/168834/Cups-tea-PEA-BB-foraging with stinging nettles since I planted it in a damp and abandoned corner of my yard 5 years ago so it can't be pep. I would still like clarification about mixing pep and pea and whether harvesting dandelion and plantain volunteers from my lawn is also pea not pep since that is a "cultivated space".

I wasn't able to get in a BB last week because I was studying for an exam. However, my husband was making up for me as he is now BB10 certified in 1 week! He wants to come to the BB20 event, so now he's crushing out BBs and is totally hooked on SKIP!
Tomorrow I will go over to my sisters property to cut down a live tree with a chainsaw and a bow saw. She has 5 acres so I'm able to cut down a live tree without breaking the law![]()
Now my exam is over I really want to get my BBs done so I can be PEP1 certified after the BB20 event!
I'm pursuing SKIP to inherit property, check it out for yourself: SKIP book or maybe you're my Otis/Otessa match?
I created a thread dedicated to my countdown to PEP2, please come visit and ask a question!

I attended Helen's Garden Master Course in January 2022 and give the lectures 10/10 acorns! Fortunately for you, you can also see the Garden Master recordings but unfortunately you'll miss out on the fruit Helen grew and shared. It was the tastiest fruit I've ever had!
