As a 'budding' herbalist (sorry bad pun), I'd almost be willing to make my own tincture of this drug. Websites out there are doom and gloom only because you need to talk with a real herbalist about the proper mixture and technique in which to extract the chemicals. This Google Books link seems to give the appropriate amount of drops per hour, which passes my BS detector. But like I said, you need a real herbalist for guidelines for making the tincture, or buy it from them. http://books.google.com/books?id=gDLIrCv26hkC&pg=PA272&lpg=PA272&dq=autumn+crocus+seeds+herbalist&source=bl&ots=DU7dDdvUPD&sig=iJ0zIYE0kAsNG8TiPL4q07ZxPmk&hl=en&ei=77uVTab3HZKUtweT0syJDA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10&ved=0CGIQ6AEwCQ#v=onepage&q&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=gDLIrCv26hkC&pg=PA272&#... http://www.aminaherbs.com/product.php?id_product=91 http://www.aminaherbs.com/product.php?id_product=91 Also sells the seed, as do other sites. I just found this one due to the bulk nature that they sell in. I have no clue if this company is good, but just wanted to show that it is easy to buy. Lastly, I thought this was some sort of sick "April Fools". Come to find out that this is normal FDA business with corporate profit extraction.
