Hmm. We've never proven remedies on plants...we've never proven remedies on animals, either...yet both respond. I guess it means you have to know what is "healthy" in plant life and animal life, and what is a symptom of ill health in plant and animal life.
Animals can communicate to human beings their symptoms, even their emotional and mental ones. Any one who has had a pet knows this: we know when our animals are terrified of thunder storms, or when they are very happy, or when they are stubborn, or when they are incapable of learning a particular task. We know when they are exhausted or thirstier than normal or not able to eat food and digest it properly. Even though we have never proven remedies on animals, we can observe symptoms in the same way we do in human beings--and then we can match those symptoms to a remedy picture, which, when given, will cure.
We do this all the time in homeopathy.
Same thing with plants: if we know how to interpret the symptoms of illness we observe in a plant, then we can match the symptom pictures to a good remedy and produce cure.
Though we are not using 100% proving information on our subjects in the same way we would if we were dealing with human beings, we can still apply our information, as well as the Law of Similars, and it will work. It is a natural law, after all. The point is, the substance produces a pattern of symptoms in a living organism--not just human beings, as we've learned through our clinical experience.
