I finally found stinging. Nettle today. Ive lived in the woods all my life but was never taught this. Within the past 2 days I have discovered, purple dead nettle, wild violate, dandelion, wild garlic and broad leaf dock. I knew some of these but never realized the importance. I guess my 2nd year gardening has sparked my interest. Thanks for the inspiration and education 🙏

I learn something new every time I watch one of your vids, and I thought I had quite good plant knowledge! Please write a book when you have time ✌️

Thank you very much for the info about this magnificent plant. I have been trying to grow some stinging nettles from seeds these days. They popped out yesterday in the plastic cup, and I have been babying them! :-)))) I hope I can grow them, then harvest and share with my neighbours, and even collect some seeds. And eventually share this info with as many people as possible. Regards from Canada . . . .

I get stung a fair bit doing my gardening jobs. I’ve always wondered about the benefits. It stops hurting after a few stings and I feel very.. invigorated. 😊

Was camping at a boys camp for two weeks and ran into these plants which left me with what looked like giant blisters. Painless but looked like something out of sci fi movie. Me and maybe 20 other kids were affected. At first everyone thought we had some disease. It was actually very funny afterwards.
