Anyone have experience with Japanese Knotweed?

When we moved in, the yard was overrun with this. Through constant cutting and mowing I’ve managed to keep it out of the yard but still have around the creek and woodlines.

Tried feeding to both pigs and sheep this morning. Pigs ignored it which was surprising since they eat almost anything. Sheep seem to be interested. May have found something. Will continue to give it a try. #homesteading #sheep #permaculture #grownostr

Dry it and sell it on etsy. It's the main thing in the chronic lyme disease herbal protocol. I have chronic lyme and I've definitely spent a chunk of change on Japanese knotweed since I can't wild harvest it in Arizona.

Very interesting. Leaves or stalks? Or both?
