Growing Tips

Echinacea seeds require cold stratification prior to germination. This can be done one of two ways (depending on your planting method).

When Planting Outdoors, plant the echinacea seeds in the fall to allow the seeds to overwinter. Seeds will germinate when soil temperatures reach around 65-70°F. Germination should occur within a couple of weeks but could take up to 4 weeks to fully sprout.

When Planting Indoors, soak the seeds in water overnight then place the damp seeds in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 8 to 10 weeks. Plant in your seed trays and warm the soil to 65°. Seeds should germinate within 10 to 14 days.

These plants are drought-tolerant and do not like soggy feet, so make sure to only water when the surface of the soil is dry to the touch. They do best in a sandy, well-draining soil.

Medicinal Uses

Echinacea has been used throughout history as an immune-stimulating herb. Medicinally, the leaves, root, and flowers can be used.

People have used Echinacea as a natural painkiller for thousands of years. It is also thought to alleviate stomach aches, headaches, sore throats, prevent the common cold, flu, and many respiratory ailments. In addition, echinacea may help to fight rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers, Crohn’s disease, malaria, herpes, typhoid, vaginal yeast, and many other ailments.

When used as a tea, echinacea is believed to reduce anxiety and stress. It may also help to control blood sugar levels and is used in many diabetic diets.

The list of health benefits from the echinacea plant is ongoing, we recommend harvesting and storing the entire plant for future uses as the need arises.

Harvesting Crops

Echinacea flowers and leaves can be harvested in as little as three months but may not reach full maturity until 4 months of solid growth.

If you plan to use the roots in medicinal recipes, most commercial productions wait until the third year of growth to harvest the entire root ball for use. This allows the roots to develop to absolute maturity. Although, the rest of the plant can be selectively harvested until this point.

Harvesting Seed

Save some of your strongest echinacea plants to use as seed stock in the first year. These will provide the best prospects for germinating from seed.

When the flowers have reached full maturity (around 3-4 months), the petals will begin to die off and turn brown. Once the seed heads begin to die and turn a dark brown color, your seeds are ready to harvest.

Snip the stems just below the seed heads and use a bucket or bowl to collect the seeds as you brush them out of the seed head with your fingers. Echinacea seeds are incredibly small, so be careful when removing them.

Make sure your seeds are completely dry by storing them in a cool, dry area for a couple of weeks before safely storing them for next growing season.

HONEST REVIEW: Dont waste your money: 2001 330Ci (pre-LCI)
Color: Matte Black, Size: For 1999-2002 E46 Coupe Cabriolet Pre-LCI
I tried these because the reviewer's pictures look like these would work. I will assume the integrity of the reviewer and their word that the grills in the pictures are legitimately this brand grills. Which means something terrible happened to the manufactures molds from the time the reviewer got theirs to the time I received mine. I ordered the correct ones for my pre-facelift model and the quality looked promising however the top edge was inset about a 1/4 inch from the OEM one and they wiggled around to the point that there was NO CHANCE of them staying in on the way out of my garage. Don't waste your time and money. Just spend the extra $50 to get the ones from bimmerworld.

Identical to originals at 1/4 of the price.
This is a review on the Kawaski KRX wheel hub covers. I am very impressed. These are identical in look to the OEM Kawasaki KRX hub covers. Those cost over $28.00 for just one. This is a 4 pack for less than that price. The okastic quality is the same and these fit the machine perfectly. We got them to replace as the others break and fall off and you can not tell which one is new compared to the old ones. Overall great buy and identical to the original. Highly recommend.

Fit supper snug!
Awesome product. I lost 2 of them on my Kawasaki Teryx 1000, and these caps fit super snug. I almost didn't think they fit because they were so tight, and had to use a rubber mallet to gentle tap them on. Worth the buy!

Happy with the price and quality!
Size: Single Slat, Color: Matte Black, Size: Single Slat, Color: Matte Black
I bought this set with low expectations to replace my OEM grill which was falling apart and getting loose. I thought, not much to lose. They actually turned out to fit and look great. Just one tip-- when installing, be sure that you are correctly positioning the tension clips to be in contact with the end of the hood notch. There are a lot of Youtube guides you can find online to help you with it. Otherwise, they will just be totally loose and not fit correctly.

The grill is plastic of course but for the price it makes the car look good. I had a cracked grill and it looked so ugly. These popped right in easy install and makes the car look good again I am happy.
