      I live in the mountains of Norh Carolina. My mom used to pick the dock leaves in the spring and mix them with other greens and cook them with potatoes and onions. They were quite good.

    One day my knee was hurting and I couldn't stop.i saw a big ol leaf that said use me! I took it and wrapped it around my knee and kept going. I totally forgot about it until I got ready for my shower and there was the leaf wilted and spent. Energy or psychosomatic it was great and I was very grateful❤

    I absolutely love your demeanor. I was about to weed eat the front of my house that I have only been in 3 yrs here in the Ozark mountains in the state of Arkansas. When I was hesitant to mull down such a vibrant and beautiful plant. The first year I thought it was a type of collard green but was uncertain so I wacked it down. The next year I figured it to be a sewer or ditch weed. This year it's so big and beautiful there had to be something to it more than I was giving it credit for. First initial Google search said horseradish. So I looked again and took another picture and I come up three times the same and that's how I found your channel.
    My ancestral roots are mainly from lancastrian descent and Welsh I'm as Gaelic as they come my grandfather six generations back was Miles Standish which hailed from the Isle of Man. So your jolly and folly made me Giddy and it's saved this wonderful plant. I cannot wait to see it bloom. I will be looking for more videos as I have some crazy plantain of different sizes and types. Question please.. is the flower of the plantain the plantagenet?
    I also have what we call hogweed but it's a mint and it is in the family of the patchouli. You talk about a stunning plant in the fall the colors and the fragrance are unbelievable and the remedies this plant has amazing potentials and even being used in scientific studies for influenza and Cancers
    I just felt compelled to say thank you for the smile you have a very lucky family to have someone like you to keep cheering them on I'm looking forward to learning through your cheerful way.
    So are yorkster lancastrian or Wales? I wouldn't say York your too happy.. just a curious oh gal from America and strong Gaelic nature.

    Well I've learned something! I always just squished a leaf until it was mushy and rubbed that on a sting, it never occurred to me to use the stem - I was always taught 'dock LEAF' so that's what I'd use!

      I have found that the dock doesn't make one whit of difference to a nettle sting ,the best thing is to take a nettle leave crush it between your fingers rub it on wait one minute and voila sting gone....all my children know this and use it on their children....surprisingly not many people know this.

      @@homeiswhereourheartis some more info copied and pasted from wikipedia Arrhenatherum elatius is a principal species in two UK National Vegetation Classification habitat communities: the very widespread MG1 (Arrhenatherum elatius grassland) and the much rarer MG2 (Arrhenatherum elatius - Filipendula ulmaria tall-herb grassland). This means that it can be found with species such as Dactylis glomerata (also known as cock's-foot and orchard grass), and Filipendula ulmaria (also known as meadow-sweet).
      It is found on road verges, along hedges and riverbanks.
      It can colonise and stabilise limestone scree, bare calcareous cliffs, maritime shingle and coastal dunes.

    While I really appreciate your enthusiasm & positivity, I don't know how you can eat this man, especially raw in a salad! I tasted it one time and it was so gross 🤢... I'm intrigued about the seeds, how would you use those? Like quinoa? Are they any less bitter? If not I'll pass lol. Maybe I'll do the salve, I have a bajillion of these in my yard coming up in my pathways because they can survive compacted soil really well.

    Broad leaf dock. I have lots of it from one plant I picked near a friend's home where it grew wild. She did not know what it was, neither did I. It just seemed like it was a good, useful plant. Earlier this year I started looking up foraging videos. I found it on there being identifies as broadleaf dock. I've dries some to use later; I'm not sure exactly how. Any suggestions?
    We have yellowdock too; bitter but delicious! Thanks for the info.

      Sounds freaky but it's the same as things like spinach, sorrel and parsley all contain higher levels of oxalic acids than dock, You'd have to eat pounds & pounds everyday for a whole week of it to actually hurt your body.
