Air date: Apr 20, 2010

n the penultimate episode of Grow Your Own Drugs, recipes include a salve using St John's Wort to help heal wounds and a pain-relieving granita made from willow bark and limes. Also, try treating shaving rash with a witch hazel gel; and if your sinuses are blocked, you may find that a home-made eucalyptus decongestant could help.
