I'm a child of the 80S British Punk and New Wave Joey division, New order, Depeche mode, Echo & the bunnymen, gang of four, Sisters of Mercy, front 242 Nitzer Ebb, Kasabian, ect. I am truly enjoying your videos you're a walking encyclopedia on Natives! I have a small native garden in Chicago slowly trying to influence my neighborhood into ditching the lawn and plant more natives.💚
Thanks! And also thanks for spreading the word about less lawn and more natives! Even though I listen to a lot of heavy metal, I also listen to some of the bands on your list too.
I loved "touch me nots" when I was a kid. When I pinched the ripe seed pod it would burst and the seeds would fly high in the air. My sibs and I would fuss for a chance to touch the next pod. No me!
80’s hardcore punk. 70’s punk and earlier proto punk stuff . Post punk, early goth, garage rock, hard psych, 80’s metal..thrash mostly. Current bands playing throwback thrash….sabbath and the many sabbath clones from pentagram to the sword….pop punk, traditional ska, 2 tone era ska, some 3rd wave ska, rocksteady, roots, dancehall.

@@BackyardEcology agreed. Awesome man. Seriously tho absolutely love your channel and the phenomenal knowledge of natives that you are sharing and the whole vibe and stuff🤝
Im more of a metalcore guy but anything fast and heavy is good for me. Killswitch Engage, August Burns Red and After the Burial are my favorite bands. 🤘
The deer in my area will eat ANYTHING! They've browsed on my forsythia! They munched the heads off all my Queen Anne's Lace! I've spend 4 years getting them to where they are this summer and in one night they turned it into an all you can eat buffet of the heads. Trees are totaled to the height of deer on their hind legs. I need to put up a 12 foot wall LOL I have the perfect area for them too with lots of that garlic, some poison ivy and tons of mosquitoes lol I'd just have to fence that area off, and while it's "my yard" that I legally have to care for (and pay taxes on), it's town property so i can't build on it....sigh..... I grew up with the Bergen Swamp as my backyard so we had a lot of these, I loved being able to show my son these when he was little and his joy of popping the seeds!
Hungry deer will eat anything green. If you have a browse line in the trees the deer population is way more than it should be - which is a problem across most of the eastern US.
I don't listen to a ton of metal these days, but I have a lot of time for Kowloon Walled City out of Oakland. another excellent video, and you know I love popping Jewelweed pods 🎉
This is great! I was out for a walk yesterday in a new area and spotted some jewelweed. I wasn't certain which it was, but given your description and where it was growing I'm pretty sure it seems it was common jewelweed. The first flowers are just beginning to bloom. We even saw a white moth, but didn't know to look any closer.
I love System of Down, Sergio has such an amazing voice. I also love jewel weed! I've used it many times to help relieve poison ivy rashes. I've also had one of those seed pods pop and send a seed directly into my eye! It was not pleasant, fun to pop the pods...not fun to dig a tiny seed out of your eye! 😆
When I was a kid, I used to love the seeds of jewelweed. We used to call them "googoo gacka geekers", for reasons I cannot now fathom. I honestly don't have a favorite genre of music. There is just no way to choose. Lately I have been listening to a lot of bluegrass and related genres because there is a great local radio station where I live and that's what they play. WDVX.
Jewelweed seeds are just so much fun to poke and watch them go. Narrowing down to just one genre of music can be tough for sure. I listen to all sorts of music.
No plant I my garden brings in the hummingbirds like jewelweed. It’s weedy as heck, but easy to pull and manage, so it’s nice to have such a reliable self seeder. One of my favorite plants
Pollinator gardens should be primarily native plants. Non-native plants do not support the full life cycle of our native insects, the larvae can't eat them, most notable example of this is Butterfly Bush, provides nectar, but is not a larval host for any native butterflies. Also, native plants are better support for birds and other creatrues. Non-native berry or fruit plants may not provide the nutrition birds need, for example, if the Fall fruit is higher in sugars and not fats as most of our native plants are, they don't provide the long flight energy needed for migration support.
I spent the better part of last year stratifying both types of jewelweed (in and out of the fridge for months on end) and have been rewarded with a bunch of healthy plants. I can't wait for blooming in Kalamazoo, MI!
now i want to find some of this to plant for next year. also, i’ve been on a bit of an asian folk metal kick lately. i don’t know if that’s an actual valid genre category or not. but, bands from india, japan, mongolia, russian siberia, etc.
❤ Thank you so much for covering this species. Are they difficult to transplant or is seed the best way to get them established? CCR or The Band are my favorite (classic 60s bands)
I have always had better luck with seed. We have some in a bed and I have tried to move some and they do OK but really need to be watched closely as they need a ton of water. The smaller they are the better.
Jewelweed has shown up and tried to take over my garden bed but I love it and so do the hummingbirds, so I leave a lot of it. It’s an aggressive seeder…I find it everywhere! I have an area where I’m trying to stamp out invasive stiltgrass, and was wondering if I could try transplanting jewelweed once I get rid of the stiltgrass (we have garlic mustard too). There are some that the deer cut back so they’re shorter and easier to deal with. I figure if it can establish and go to seed, maybe it would help get things under control.
It can, but it is also one of the easiest plants to pull up if it comes up in an area you don't want it. Has a super small root system for its size and is easy to ID even as a sprout.
Like a good nerd, Sabaton is a favourite on my Playlists, along with the talent Peyton Parish. Going to see if I can't get a stand of Jewelweed going under some Big Shady Maples
Unfortunately, Jewel Weed didn’t work out for me. I bought a start at a local nursery thinking that I would let it make seeds and then next year I would harvest the seeds, but deer came and ate the head off of it. It’s still clinging to life now, but barely so it definitely won’t be making any seed this year. And since it’s gonna die at the end of the year, I would’ve been better off finding a source of just seeds and then planning a bunch of seeds. I would try that next year if I knew where to get the seeds.
Don't give up hope yet! Jewelweed can form cleistogamous flowers - small flowers that never open and self pollinate. This is a fail safe for them when conditions are rough or they get browsed off. You still may get some seed production even without the cool looking flowers.
How can I pick one genre? I grew up on thrash, but there is so much more. I have probably listened to some of the Swedish bands more than about anything though. Opeth and Katatonia being at the top of the list of those.
Question: Just out of curiosity, is it possible to grow any foods from seed in a wild/forest environment? No plans to personally do so, but just wondering. Thx!

I introduced this to my yard years ago. The bees and hummingbirds love it.

Ouch! That sounds like it would not be pleasant. System of a Down is a great band!
These grow tall and in dense patches in my leaf pile on the embankment. The deer bed down in the middle at night to stay concealed.
Nice!
I love this plant! Great video, as usual. Definitely going to pollinate that like button.
Awesome! Thank you!
More info on native annuals please
metal music: idle cure, news boys, allies, geoff moore & the distance.

Classic Sabbath is one band I always go back to for the past 30 years
Hard to beat Sabbath!

Hummingbirds do love it!
Is punk considered metal? If so, that would be my favorite metal music. 🎵
Punk and metal are definitely in the same neighborhood.

Mothra Hatchet, Mothallica, Iron Mothen, Mothley Crüe, and....WhiteMoth!
Don't forget Megamoth!
I spent the better part of last year stratifying both types of jewelweed (in and out of the fridge for months on end) and have been rewarded with a bunch of healthy plants. I can't wait for blooming in Kalamazoo, MI!
Nice! We have a bunch of cardinal flower and great blue lobelia growing this season too.
This year I have lots of jewel weed and the good thing is that the deer have been eating the tops and leaving my other plants alone.
Super metal moth!
Nice! The deer around here seem to eat everything else and leave the jewelweed alone most of the time.
now i want to find some of this to plant for next year.
also, i’ve been on a bit of an asian folk metal kick lately. i don’t know if that’s an actual valid genre category or not. but, bands from india, japan, mongolia, russian siberia, etc.
Jewelweed seed is available from quite a few native plant seed companies. I listen to some of the Asian metal too - folk and other styles.
Love your videos! They're extremely helpful and informative. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
Jewel is a favorite of mine in the cool shade areas along the creek.
Mine too!

I would give it a try. Stiltgrass can take a lot of shade so the jewelweed may not suppress it, but it's worth a shot.
@@BackyardEcology don’t I know it. Such a pain. Once we get a little rain I’ll give it a try.
@@emkn1479 Hoping for some rain here too. Things are starting to get a little crispy.
Jewelweed can become a real pest in the garden as the seeds get thrown all around. They are a big plant and produce lots of seeds.
It can, but it is also one of the easiest plants to pull up if it comes up in an area you don't want it. Has a super small root system for its size and is easy to ID even as a sprout.

Thrash is like the gateway to metal I think. I still listen to a ton of it - and a bunch of Swedish bands too!
Ministry-Twitch
Black metal - Mgła and Marduk all day!
Nice!
Question: Just out of curiosity, is it possible to grow any foods from seed in a wild/forest environment? No plans to personally do so, but just wondering. Thx!
Native edibles most certainly! Garden type vegetables probably wouldn't do well.
Nu metal
Nice!
