Does anyone grow stinging nettle (Urtica dioica)? I’m thinking about planting some next year in containers, mostly for fertilizer but I would also like to drink some tea just to see if it helps my allergies at all. Any tips, observations, opinions?

    Tried a daily spoonful honey a few times in my life. Didn’t help my allergies either time. I tried it a second time as a digestion aid, but didn’t notice much difference either.

    It’s delicious though. I was told that eating the honeycomb is the best way to go if you want health benefits, but I dislike the texture.
