You can buy seeds at Homedepot and can grow in a pot or grow with your grass

Thanks for covering this plant. I've been trying to figure out the name of it for a while now because I see it everywhere. Good to know it's a food source.

It looks like dollarweed. Is it related to that? There is also one called colt's foot and is it related?
And, on another note. I found COMFREY! Down at my daughter's place. But no broad leaf plantain yet, bummer.

Actually I've read in a couple of places it has a medicinal use as an anti diaherria plant. In other words it has been said that it can help stop the doo doo run runs.

I eat what I thought was Dichondra Carolinesis, but its not. Leaves are bigger and not as kidney shaped. They are a little more Y shaped from the kidney. It is in South carolina and I would have continued eating them thinking they are the carolinesis, but I found a nice stalk growing from the middle yesterday and cut it and put it in my salad. When the stalk was raw and I ate it, it sort of made my mouth and throat tingle a little. Alcohol seemed to increase that tingle. Felt more horseradish like than a leaf. When I warmed it all etc and added more ingredients and mayo etc, it disappeared. What plant was it – I have pics of the leaf if you like.

I have something that has leaves like this - but has a flower stalk hitting 6"+ and its already flowered, almost 2 weeks ago (March 7th or so 2021 in south carolina). Never saw it before, but its taken up a 10' long 2' wide patch of shade by my trash cans and some of it is everywhere else - even in full sun. Can you see if you identify it - here is my post about it.

Resembles our miner's lettuce, but completely different family however. If you look at the shape of the plant, it will usually correspond to the body part it be helpful, so it would be said to be helpful to the kidneys. It doesn't seem to be indigenous to my area in the PNW. I did find information on it being an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. While I am not 100% that it would be the same across all the species, I do not see why it would not either. 🙂 https://tmu.pure.elsevier.com/zh/publications/antioxidant-and-anti-inflammatory-properties-of-dichondra-repens- In this one, Dichondra is part of the formulation, not a single http://72.15.230.235/MuseProxyID=mp01/MuseSessionID=005a2l5/MuseProtocol=http/MuseHost=search.proquest.com/MusePath/healthcomplete/docview/1704741955/fulltext/BC30BC84ED6A4811PQ/1?accountid=158302 and also (while I get the creepy crawlers about the spiders egg part..ewww) http://72.15.230.235/MuseProxyID=mp01/MuseSessionID=005a2l6/MuseProtocol=http/MuseHost=go.galegroup.com/MusePath/ps/i.do?id=GALE|A476876505&v=2.1&u=lirn12711&it=r&p=HRCA&sw=w&authCount=1 I hope those help! Love the videos and the learning. Thanks 🙂
