Hi there!
Just picked up a bunch of tagetes patula, the dark orange ones and was wondering what to do with them. Dry them and infuse them? Infuse them fresh? Use inly the petals or the whole flower head with the green part? Is such oil good for soap or for a salve? Maybe I can dry them and grind them for powder, I read it is used for food coloring, so I can color my soaps, if it survives the lye
