- Couch grass is a marvellous plant that has a very long history of uses to help with a variety of health ailments. Although you wouldn't add this to a salad as is, there is a way to eat it!
I am sorry for not being able to slow the video down so you can read the information Culpeper said - please just pause the vid! For more information see the links below:

Another wonderful video. People who see my garden ask if I am a weed gardener, or a vegetable gardener. My reply is "Both."
Love it!!!!!!! (And thank you for the kind words!)
This was an excellent detailed presentation, and always love a good Culpepper reference! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your kind words - and thank YOU for watching!
Happy day !!
I love this!!
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed this vid!

Thank you!
New to your channel Karen! Great info. Do you know what anti ancient grasses grow in Alberta. I read some that the reason ranchers in Alberta are saying that the wild horses damage the grasses.
I am thrilled you are here!! Thank you!! That question I don't know the answer to. Sorry about that.
Some dogs eat grass. I wonder if they instinctively know how certain grass can heal them . Thank you .God bless you
Dogs tend to know when they need grass. You are welcome and thank you for watching! Blessings to you!
Do you have a video on tinctures...how to tincture medicinal plants and herbs?
I have this one.. th-cam.com/video/IZpky-45p0E/w-d-xo.html

I read it is from Australia
Several credible publications say it is native to Europe and Asia - and some also say Africa and yes, Australia.
❤❤❤❤❤
400 kinds Wow.
I know!! Incredible!
Wow, I never knew you could eat grass
I know huh!!? So good for us too!!
Is this grass available in SA
SA as in South Africa?
oooo ...you have stinging nettle ! ..youre lucky..
I am!!
Any idea why dogs eat grass?
"Ruffage" (sorry - I had to spell it that way!!! ) Anyway - they need fibre to have healthy stool and if they lack fibre in their food bowl they will seek out grass. Also - to help calm a stomach - often, like cats, they will eat it, the cack it up!
I’m thinking there are some sort of minerals or something ruse than just ruffage as they seem to always target grass there’s many other weeds around! Thank you kindly
@@mariagillinson8527 Thank you for watching!
They eat it as a fiber. This irritates their stomach, and they vomit. This is their way to cleanse
Karen, that chemical in that grass might be Cacodylic acid which is an arsinic acid. Johnson Grass has a lot of it, and it is dangerous if eaten by livestock. Is your "couch grass" Elymus repens?
Hi Wayne! Thanks for that! Yes - Elymus repens, I mentioned that in the vid!
@@EdibleWildFood-1 how can you tell the difference between Johnson Grass versus Elymus repens ?
@@incorectulpolitic The roots...couch grass forms a dense underground network of roots and white rhizomes...johnson grass forms a single clump of fibrous roots
@@EdibleWildFood-1 can you please make a video about these two types and show the differences ? If you do please post the link as a reply to my comment. Thank you
@@incorectulpolitic It is a great idea and at some point I can. I am on vacation out west right now focusing on doing videos on plants out here. Please email me and this way I will remember to let you know when it is done. info (at) ediblewildfood (dot) com
Couch grass and cramp bark? I think that's what killed Curly!
Lol!
