SUH Seung Ji –
I am trying my hand at making Makgeolli. It says I have to wrap the Koji in mugwort. Doesn’t say if it has to be a certain type. Would this work?

Hi there! I already have a well-established patch of Artemisia absinthum. Should I worry about cross pollination with the mugwort and what would be the result? what is the optimum distance to plant it in this case? thanks a lot!

Hello! What is the difference between Artemisia Vulgaris and Artemisia Annua?
Upvote if this was helpful (0) Downvote if this was not helpful (0) Flag for removal
Richo Cech –
Hi Lauren,
The Artemisia vulgaris is mugwort, a perennial plant used by herbalists as a mild gastric stimulant and by dream pillow makers for making dream pillows. The Artemisia annua is an annual Chinese herb used traditionally by herbalists for treating malaria and of interest these days as a potential treatment for COVID. You can find out a lot about this herb by looking on the World Health Organization website or by reading my book “Making Plant Medicine.” Richo

Richo Cech –
hi cz, we don’t have artemisia argyi, although it is as you say similar to vulgaris and also very similar to princeps (yomogi). spell “artemisia” in our search engine and you’ll see several more choices that yes, are used in tcm–annua, scoparia, etc. r
