[How did you get all of your plant knowledge? Was that kind of given to you by your parents or is it something you kind gained over time?]

My grandmother and grandfather. My grandmother, when I went to the doctor, I was getting ready to go for first grade.

Never went to the doctor. Never went to the doctor. My grandmama had remedies for everything right now.

Like say you got a cough and you don't want to go to store and buy no cough medicine, get you some garlic, peel your garlic and stuff, fill up a jar, with that garlic, sprinkle sugar over it, put the top on it, let it sit.

That next day, you should have like syrup. You take a spoonful of that. Let's natural cough medicine. Put it in the fridge. It'll last bout seven days. If you don't have garlic you can do it with onion.

[No, but I love, I'll eat garlic in the thing. But I'm saying no, they would just take a raw cook and just eat it.]

“Yeah. That's my grandfather used to do too.”

[I'm telling you. You hear they would eat it and I'd be like, no, I got to be talking to people and that stuff going to be on my breath. I'm not doing that.]

“It will sweat out your skin when you go to sweating. There was a guy, that's all he did. He eats garlic in the morning. He eats garlic and he eat it raw. So, when we played basketball, the sweat that's comin out his pores and he smells like a garlic factory. And the reason he was able to score so much points, nobody don't want to get close to him.”
