What do?

It extracts the minerals, and maybe adds some beneficial microbes if things go well.

Do you eat it?

This stuff, you spray on your precious plants. 😂

👀 I may need a doctor.

You will be alright it is edible 🤣

😅

Discovered my daughter likes making 'potions' out of plants and mud so I am now helping her add a few ingredients and making her pour it on plants 😄

Nice. It is fun.

Definitely complains too much about the sting to do nettles though 😂.

Got some pretty interesting looking microbes under the slide from a sugar stabilised nettle FPJ

That is interesting. I wore heavy leather gloves, but my arms irritated.

Sepp Holzer says something like if you react to being stung by nettles you are disconnected from nature 😂. I have been picking them all my life so you get used to it when things go wrong, but if you always grasp in an action moving upwards when you pick them its pretty easy to get them without getting stung just takes a bit of practice.

😂 I was being cautious today for the wife. I am actually a maniac. 😂

look at that nutrient goodness 🙂

😎 what a day. Almost hot. 😂

Powerhouse liquid fertilizer. I got a bucket from last spring i need to use up. I think it was a comfrey nettle mix

I am going to do a comfrey one next.
