One of the most famous medicinal herbs in folk medicine is the herva woolly, popularly referred to as half-fallen. She came to us from faraway Southeast Asia. This is truly a unique and universal medicine that is used in the treatment of colds (tracheitis, bronchitis) and disruption of the digestive system (pancreatitis, gastritis, colitis). Erva woolly grass is an indispensable helper for gout, chronic migraine or rheumatism.
Many gardeners are trying to grow half-fallen in their suburban area. However, please note that in this case it is not known whether the herva woolly will have unique healing properties. Many experts believe that nutrients contain only those plants that were grown on the island of Ceylon in the Indian Ocean. Moreover, the collected grass must be processed according to the most ancient recipes, which from time immemorial have been kept in the strictest confidence.
In order for the thermophilic tropical erva wooly to ascend on your site, it is necessary to provide it with a high level of humidity and good lighting.
The plant is demanding on the composition of the soil: it should include sand, humus and black soil in equal proportions. Before starting sowing seeds, the earth should be thoroughly moistened, and then fluff seeds should be pressed into it. They can not be covered with earth, otherwise the plant may not germinate.
Before the first shoots appear, the container with crops should be covered with polyethylene or glass and left in a well-lit, warm place. In no case do not allow the soil to dry out, because for normal development, the plant requires high humidity. Spray crops twice a day with a spray gun at room temperature.
Half-pala is planted in open ground only after the spring frosts end. After two to three months, you can harvest the first crop. Healing properties are possessed not only by the stem, but also by the root. In order for the plant to develop well, the beds need to be moistened daily (especially in the hot summer season).
For winter, the grass is cut. Only a stump with a height of about 5 cm should remain on the surface of the earth. Since the erva grows well in indoor conditions, you can dig a few stumps and transplant them into pots.
With urolithiasis, there is no more wonderful remedy than Erva woolly, reviews of which are mostly positive. Doctors agree that her decoction is able to dissolve kidney stones, as well as contribute to their soft exit.
Erva woolly helps with an increased level of blood coagulation and prevents the formation of blood clots.

You can prepare a healing decoction from the Erva woolly as follows: brew two teaspoons of grass leaves in a glass of water and boil the resulting infusion for 3 to 5 minutes. Give him a little insistence. Use the resulting drink with honey or sugar. A distinctive feature of half-pala tea is that it tastes good, unlike many decoctions of medicinal herbs.
For therapeutic use, the decoction must be kept in a thermos for about two to three hours. The resulting infusion is consumed in ½ or ¼ cup (depending on body weight) in a hot or warm state from two to three times a day. It is recommended to undergo a treatment course, the duration of which is from 10 days to one month. After a break of six months, therapy should be repeated.
