You can take out leaf extract. Like jack fruit and dial and preserve it for months in your fridge.
Other options are teak leaf and banana. Remember to use them only when they are dry like papad. And best is dial because it has anti bacterial extrants , tanin and other goodies.

This 'milk' is usually dangerous and you can see even cattle will not graze on them, forget fish tolerating them. So when you break the leaves for use, observe closely. I have a guava tree in my front yard and its leaves are usable.
Yes Guwava is good, Jackfruit is like Banyan and from plants with milky sap the following can be used without any problems. Banyan, Peepal, Jackfruit, pilkhan
Thanks, will wait for the next meet. One question though... are they small in size?SCORPIO wrote:Jack fruit tree leaves are best option for you. Anybody need leaves, I can provide free of cost in next meet.

winter is always a tough time for trees - may be that expains your day at office, Jack
on cutting the leaf - I think that would kill the effect I am trying to create
