in blue ridge mts .. each plant is in my yard...love to allow the natural plants to grow...the tiny flowers just do something to my SOUL..just happened upon YOU and am very thankful...
Many thanks. "Speed you well" surely does imply it makes you healthy. Here's a little quote from PlantLife: In the 18th Century they also became known for curing gout and dried leaves were used for tea.
The dandelion has an additional use, not necessarily medicinal, but almost cosmetic. The white latex can be rubbed on skin spots/age spots and it will lessen the darkness of them. Will Greer who played the grampa in the Waltons swore by it to keep liver spot or sun spot lightened.
I believe he meant YARROW (not hemlock) is a good combination with plantain for a cut. Yarrow ranks high as a styptic to stop bleeding quickly. I've used it plenty. Hemlock is actually poisonous and is referred to as a yarrow look alike. Good video with a lot of good info. Thanks!
I subscribed to you , I must say i'm so glad to see someone on here who can REALLY explain identifying plant's and more, thoroughly informative and enjoyable to watch , I look forward to more vid's from you , great stuff.
Don’t know if you mention it, I’m only on the bitter cress part, but I see a lot of sorrel in there too! It was the first edible “weed” I learned about so it’s one of my favorites! Js lol and thanks for the informative videos, great job!
I live in Binghamton, NY. Up here we have Jewelweed, Dandelion, Cinquefoil, Chicory, Staghorn Sumac, BL Plantain, Curled Dock, Thistle, Burdock, Red Clover, Goldenrod, Nightshade, Toxic Vetch and Mullein
Have just found your video & sub'd, this is great info that has been presented well. Am off to check your other video's for coltsfoot, stinging nettle, lingonberry, violets & more. Living in northern BC boreal forest we are still waiting for spring. dandelions to grow their leaves. In the meantime am taking a pinch of this and that on walks and digging dandelion roots in the garden. Still have a ton of wild edibles to identify and look forward to your other wild plant videos.
nice! right now cense none of the good plants are out, i'm just foraging for yellow dock and wood sorrow im only ten but i still enjoy it and my parents like it cause i can make my out meals instead of them having to buy me one
You said “wild onions” but I think they are actually wild garlic. If you look closely IF the the bulb Is made up of several cloves then it would be garlic
Excellent video! I'm not sure what latitude you're on but all of these are to be found in the UK as well. Watched this while drinking my raw dandelion root tea - superd before bedtime!
Dandelions in Florida are different - instead of one large flower and split leaves, our leaves are a total leaf that looks like a guitar shape and the flowers are tiny and in groups.
good to know dead nettle has some benefit, the taste is grassy !!! bitter cress is up now and I find it quite tasty. my chickweed is starting, can hardly wait to get a bit more! thanks for showing the hen bit. I had forgotten about the speedwell, had found them last year, finally, cause I have a lot. must try! got wild onion as well, looks pretty much like Pennsylvania backyard great info, great video!!! many of these first spring weeds are high in antihistamines for those spring allergies. I have to say my wild strawberries are not so great tasting 🙁 great info!
Great information. Had to chime in on first one the Purple Dead Nettle, which is prolific in my yard in Arkansas. Your example is past it's prime of early spring tho lol. The leaves that were formally all green with little fushia violet buds turn pinker, the flowers all bloom out and they get powdery mildew really bad before dying so pick early. I did jump the gun because the seeds you talk about do come later. I've never used it but will bow since seeing this 🤗 Off to watch the rest of your Great video. Thank youuuu☘🌾🌻
The warning in the beginning is funny only because doctors receive very little training in nutrition so they can’t give you any advice on wild edibles. But they can suggest the next best drug or vaccine! 😉
I have watched a lot of videos and no one goes over most of what you do. purple dead nettle for instance. I had no idea what that was until I saw your video the first time a few years back and saved it. I thought it was a purple henbit!! LOL many thanks.
Depending which, acorns etc are super easy as just soaking and changing water until clear etc. It's the winnowing of smaller grains like Dock and Chenopodium/Atriplex/Orache Sp or Plantain etc that's more fiddly but super easy still. (just roughing them up in a bag to break the chaff off and pour into a bowl whilst outside, then rough up again and pour form one bowl to another and repeat, with enough gap between to let the wind blow away the chaff and the seeds fall until left with seed only. With those plants and winnow, maybe 10 mins work to harvest/process so loads quicker than the acorn types)
Acorns! Wow they taste bad. Let it go, let it go. Leave them to the squirrels and bugs. Better minds (and labs) than ours have failed to make them palatable.
what state do you live that gives you soo much healthy large weeds? I live in a state of clay soil and we don't get anything like these weeds or wild onions... I haven't seen any dandelion in my land but the false ones! That I thought of buying dandelion seeds and growing them on a garden bed...
Hey, @8:57 upper right of the screen there's a leaf that looks like a cross between a carolina geranium and a maple leaf and its smaller than the geranium leaf. What is that ? I have eaten it in small amounts and its a little like its a good candidate for a gumbo, not much flavor and has a smushy gel like feel as you chew it.
Perfectly executed.... And fun too. I wanted to mention plantain as an eye salve.. macerated and placed on the affected area. When eyes feel gritty or just "off" ...also Purple dead nettle will heal sinusitis and prevent pollen allergies. Use sparingly because before you blow your nose it will feel completely congested ! Thanks 🙏👍 A SHOUT OUT TO GREEN DEAN TOO WHO PATIENTLY AND PERSISTENTLY HELPED ME ID THE WILD ALTA YAMS A FEW YEARS BACK WHILE RESIDING IN FLORIDA... ..That's ALOT OF FOOD 🥑🥝. PRAISING G_D
Tyler, where've you been brother? Greatly appreciate the variety of topics that you cover with your playlists Been a while, since you've shared some of your knowledge with us Began practicing bushcraft, over ten years ago, in Ocala Natl Forest and your channel was the ONLY one that provided helpful info about FL I teach bushcraft workshops, now, in SC and I introduce all of my students to your channel I hope that all is well with you and your family Eagerly awaiting your next upload! Take care, and be well God bless
Could you possibly use latin binomials? I've searched for a half hour for bittercress, and I'm not finding anything that even remotely resembles what you're calling bittercress.
looks like chickweed does not have white mildew speckles like the deadnettle?@6:25 i think it is important to stay away from mildew consumption?...or if cooked maybe mildew is good like mushrooms?......my yellowdocks dont seem to catch mildew, and also the mallow seems resistant.....too bad the dandelions get mildew
Excellent video! Just FYI...that is not onion you called onion. It’s wild garlic. Wild onion has a flat grass like stem. Wild garlic has the round, hollow stem. In your video when you smashed the bulb between your fingers I could actually see the clove that garlic are known to have.... images.app.goo.gl/SxNcwmn5mGW4KVRS6
Nor do they learn about food as a healing modality, big pHARMa bought and paid for. I see a natropath, regular drs don't have a clue. And im not ome for being on any kind of nasty prescription or otc med
Disclaimer admittedly. But I can assure you Dr's are the bane of my work (Med Herbalist). The amount of clients I have who's docs get the hump for using me is mad. Usually the same story "it hasn't been proven, no tests done for efficacy. This is your health" etc. That said though, when you get a good supportive Doc who's willing to listen and actually supports it. That's one of those moments you know you got a good one. All in roundabouts. UK here too so state health care, I imagine there it'd be invaluable to know. A lot cheaper too.
I have what looks like deadnettle in my garden, the stems are purple/red, the leaves have a tinge of red but not as much as yours. The flowers are white but it looks the same in every other way. Is this another variety that's safe to eat or are there any lookalikes that poisonous?
+Saydle I would have to see a picture to know for sure. I don't think it is though if you have white flowers. They should be pink or purple in color. Look up common weeds that grow in your area to see if you can match it up. chic weed has white flowers.
There is a white dead nettle. I've grown it in my garden in the past. That doesn't mean the plant that Saydle has is a dead nettle (pictures really are important in accurate identification), but dead nettles don't only have pink or purple flowers.
I have some "Deadnettle' growing in my lawn that is variegated. It has a grey stripe down the center with white flowers at every node. it has a trailing, or creeping, habit.
Do you have video on sorta long leaf lettuce type but narrow with slightly serrated edges and narrow leaves in winter in NE FL. It has spinal cord and nearly white spine?
The one that seems get the most odd response usually is Spring time Bramble shoots (the light shiny green ones, particularly before the stem gets at all woody, tho jusr peel those. Edit: even those on large established plants which i tend use most), people get baffled by those but tbh they're damned good. Pretty much any the chive, onion, garlicky roots are edible it's just whether you can pull them on the land their in.
in blue ridge mts .. each plant is in my yard...love to allow the natural plants to grow...the tiny flowers just do something to my SOUL..just happened upon YOU and am very thankful...
Super good video! Binge watching. Wondering why your not making more videos??? You are so knowledgeable! Would like to learn more survival skills.
Thanks for the video! NOTES ... CHICKWEED: Each of the 5 petals is 2-lobed so the flower may appear to have 10 tiny petals.
I like the close-ups that give a clearer view of the plants.
Many thanks. "Speed you well" surely does imply it makes you healthy. Here's a little quote from PlantLife: In the 18th Century they also became known for curing gout and dried leaves were used for tea.

Wow! This is the most complete video on the subject. Well done my friend!
Thank you!
@@Rambooutfitters I saw THIS yellow flowers in MY YARD BUT NOT sure

Yarrow, Mayweed Chamomile and Wild Carrot
Great extra info that I haven't heard elsewhere. Like what plants are good for.
You've got a treasure trove back there! Thanks for the helpful video!
Amazing right? haha, no problem and thank you

I can't wait to get into my five acres this year! I've been learning sooo much!
I'm excited for you! Hope my channel helps with some future projects
Dandelions in Florida are different - instead of one large flower and split leaves, our leaves are a total leaf that looks like a guitar shape and the flowers are tiny and in groups.
those are Hydrochaeris radicata, cat's ear. dandelions are Taraxacum.
Thanks to both of y'all!
Thay helped alot!!!God Bless

Thank you! Many plants can be found elsewhere that is for sure.
Super excellent video , I really loved it , keep up these wonderful nature gifts coming
Plant with blue flowers look so cute. Thanks For sharing !
Excellent,endless info.Thanks a million,Jehovah richly bless,protect you,family.

Had to come back and say I was mistaken about the Dead Nettle being the same as Henbit. Both are common in Arkansas. Can't wait to try all these
Clover is one of the ingredients in Essiac anti-cancer formula. So are violet leaves.
The warning in the beginning is funny only because doctors receive very little training in nutrition so they can’t give you any advice on wild edibles. But they can suggest the next best drug or vaccine! 😉

Great video! Thanks!
No problem and thank you!
Love your video and I love living in East Tennessee. What’s your best foraging book for Tennessee?
we have the nettle here in our yard, it's pretty and your video helped answer what it is, so thank you very much. and great video
I was told the "wild onions" are technically wild garlic. Our milk goats and cows gave unionized milk, if they ate that. 😊
That speedwell, try researching Veronica beccabunga, or brooklime. Nice. Video!
Thank you so much for the information in this video, great advice.
Thanks for your advice
Wild onions look like chives
How about a video on how to prepare wild nuts like acorn and hickory to where you can eat them or make a flour with them?
Depending which, acorns etc are super easy as just soaking and changing water until clear etc. It's the winnowing of smaller grains like Dock and Chenopodium/Atriplex/Orache Sp or Plantain etc that's more fiddly but super easy still.

Whats all the white fuzzy stuff growing on your dead nettle? Mine doesn't look like that at all. I've never seen it with all that fuzz.
I never could develop a taste for those purple dead head nettles, good video!

Very informative.Thank you.I grew up foraging.
Tyler, where've you been brother?
Greatly appreciate the variety of topics that you cover with your playlists

Bonjour monsieur ,
Pourriez vous écrire le nom scientifique de chaque herbe .
Merci bien ,
Thanks!!! Now I will add more greens 🌱to my salad 🥗
cool video, very informative.
Great video! Where in Tennessee are you ? I live in a small town east of Knoxville.
we have gobs and gobs of plantain....my chickens love it
One of the best!
Could you possibly use latin binomials? I've searched for a half hour for bittercress, and I'm not finding anything that even remotely resembles what you're calling bittercress.
very nice vid
Not sure where you are,but I've NEVER seen the first purple flowered plant anywhere. What part of the country are you in?
He said he is from Appalachia, but it's also everywhere in the Pacific NW
looks like chickweed does not have white mildew speckles like the deadnettle?@6:25 i think it is important to stay away from mildew consumption?...or if cooked maybe mildew is good like mushrooms?......my yellowdocks dont seem to catch mildew, and also the mallow seems resistant.....too bad the dandelions get mildew
That first plant is called 'Heal All'. For centuries.
Are you sure these weeds are not just safe to eat but also nutritious too then we've been missing out lot due throw them away ton them?
Many of them are MORE nutritious than the nearest equal in garden crops!! And I didn't know that until I had done plenty of garden weeding, too.
below the dirt.......? dandelions
Love this video.👍
Should I found interesting plants in my backyard, where could I ask for their identifications anad their benefits?
I am from California.
Thanks information you could share.
I have all of these and many more in my yard.Most of them I pulled and throw away without knowing they are edible.Thank you for the informations.
I imagine you have a yard full of weeds.
Yep, 120 perches with full of weeds and 30 giant trees.🙂
Cool
Good video.
I like to know the small little leafy plant next to dandlion 28:23 to my left in a star shape, what is that one??
Thank you for all that info👏👏👏👏👍💞😍🥰💓🤗
Excellent video! Just FYI...that is not onion you called onion. It’s wild garlic. Wild onion has a flat grass like stem. Wild garlic has the round, hollow stem. In your video when you smashed the bulb between your fingers I could actually see the clove that garlic are known to have....

Seriously ask a Dr.? They don't have a clue about medicinal plants.
Nor do they learn about food as a healing modality, big pHARMa bought and paid for. I see a natropath, regular drs don't have a clue. And im not ome for being on any kind of nasty prescription or otc med
He has to say that or he’s liable.
peach It’s a disclaimer.

Cooked or raw ones better?
thank u
Do you have video on sorta long leaf lettuce type but narrow with slightly serrated edges and narrow leaves in winter in NE FL. It has spinal cord and nearly white spine?
Raw, it taste a bit in the grassy side , then, a bit sour, then a bit lightly soapy/chemically
And is quite plentiful and all over
Indian strawberries are runners.
Chickweed has 5 petals... They look like 10 because they are deeply cut. You really should fix that to avoid confusing your viewers
I think I saw some cleavers early on.
I think duck potatoes.
Flash the names of the edible on the screen, please.
Not every one understands you! Thank you!
👍🌹
Eat the chives!
:)
AppalATCHA!!! 🤣 That's how we know ya ain't from round here. Hahahaha!
O
Your deal on wild strawberries is a lie. They don’t taste like anything so don’t lie
_nutritious_ not _nutritional_
Why in hell are you eating chive bulbs?
The one that seems get the most odd response usually is Spring time Bramble shoots (the light shiny green ones, particularly before the stem gets at all woody, tho jusr peel those. Edit: even those on large established plants which i tend use most), people get baffled by those but tbh they're damned good. Pretty much any the chive, onion, garlicky roots are edible it's just whether you can pull them on the land their in.
Oh my gosh he goes on and on and on. Yawnnnnnnnn
Llee. God gave you a gift, knowledge is not powerful. There's no excuse for rudeness.
God Bless
