[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6957408, member: 2119"] I sometimes wonder if I’m doing it all wrong. Why not cultivate the stuff that grows like crazy and forget cereals and conventional crops. I was thinking in particular of “Fat Hen” It grows given half a chance and combines very well. Does anybody know if the seed is a useful feed. Did they fatten hens on it at one time? I heard the Romans used it for something as well as growing nettles for flax. Any other weeds in your locality that once had a profitable use, (apart from OSR ?). [/QUOTE]
