okay...you're probably thinking "what is that???". well, i'm about to tell you! Pine Resin, from pine trees (naturally), is a highly combustible product. It seeps from broken or missing limbs/branches of trees, where a branch would grow from. The branch could either have been removed by man or nature (lighting, fire, etc). It can also seep through the bark from animals constantly scratching at it. it is white and some-what gooey and "powdery" at the same time.
it is EXTREMELY sticky, so if you decide to collect it without covering your hands with gloves or something, make sure you have baby oil on hand. this stuff will literally remove ANYTHING sticky.
i collected some for a natural deodorant recipe by James Wong, featured in his book, "Grow Your Own Drugs!". This book is so simple and easy to follow. He even gives you resources to buy the herbs and ingredients, as well as "top 100 herbs" for you to grow/purchase.
