interesting video, I've always harvested these wearing a thin pair of disposable gloves, grasping the plants with a pair of hotdog tongs, and cutting them with siccors. Take only the tips of plants, or plants 12 inches tall or less. Drying or cooking in boiling water destroys the stinging hairs. btw, the active compound in the hairs is the same as that in a bee's stinger........
That's great! Wish we learned this stuff in school, but since they forgot to teach us this important information, thank YOU for sharing and showing us. I'm sure there are plenty of plants we take for granted wherever we live that are very good for us.
@intrepidxxx I'm sure the ones who want to sell their drugs and chemicals don't want this taught in schools, now do they. As a matter of fact they want to criminalize natural remedies completely so you can only buy their man-made crap.
0:35 "and then I smoke it" is what all you potheads were hoping.

a woman voice added much to the lesson, men pickup on it more quickly
that is why star trek had a woman computer voice. we grow nettles here in south west Nebraska and use them many ways

There's a patch of nettles under the bleachers at my school and my friend tried eating one. It didn't turn out so well.
