  • Stinging nettle starts to poke its head up from the damp earth just as we transition into early spring. The entire plant from leaf to root holds wellness-supporting properties with an affinity for the liver, urinary tract, and respiratory system.

    Everything in the pacific northwest looks just like what we have in the east...but they grow 10 times bigger!

    I sure wish I knew in 1980 what I know now! We were stationed in England and stinging nettle was eveywhere. Could have made so many wonderful things.

    A few years ago I had a swath of nettle pop up in my side garden and learned a good deal about 'em. I also take a nettle capsule during allergy season and it really does help me! Loved this talk!

    I knew they were packed with minerals & made an excelent electrolyte-rich beverage, but I had no idea it could alleviate allergy symptoms. Excellent content.

    I like the warm feeling of stinging nettles. I had some in a pot. I transplanted them in the yard. I now have a 4" x 6" patch now. I love them.

    Brilliant lady.
    By fermentation of the plants to create a fertilizer for your garden, wouldn't this also be a great product to drink?
    I've made homemade wine and the process sounds similar.

    Thank you for this wonderfully informative video. I love stinging nettle & gather it every spring. I also do urtication therapy on my hands/fingers, which keeps them pain free from mild arthritis. I want people to know that you don't necessarily get welts. I never have. I also don't whack myself with the plant. All that is necessary is letting it touch all over the area you need help with. It creates a warm buzzing, invigorating feeling. It's wonderful, and I look forward to it every year.

    Can you please tell us the process in what you are calling "fermented nettle" as a fertilizer? For instance in a five gallon bucket. Ratio of nettle to water and then how much sugar? Let it steep how long? I am guessing you can do this with comfrey also. Thank you for your time and knowledge. Love seeing how passionate you are about herbs and plants.

    • @shanalipnergrover843

      Search UA-cam for Fermented Plant Juice. We are not experts but learned about it on UA-cam and started experimenting. There are a number of ratios of plant to sugar. I am sure it will work with Comfrey but I haven’t tried it. We are consumed with Nettles so this has been very beneficial for us. Shana

      Thanks so much for that feedback, Shana will be so happy to hear that! As someone who also has ADHD, I've found working with Shana to be so helpful because she keeps things entertaining and easy to understand.

    Are thistles related to nettles?

    • @mountainroseherbs
      @mountainroseherbs  Рік тому

      Great question, Nancy! They are actually not related. Nettles are commonly of the family Urticaceae and thistle is in the Asteraceae family! Thanks for watching, Shana is a great teacher! :) - Gracie

    Very informative video. I was especially intrigued with applying fresh nettle to the injured toe (I fractured my toe and had surgery) to stimulate nerve growth.
    I have some nettle nearby and was wondering if the leaves can be picked any time or is there a prime time to harvest them?

    • @mountainroseherbs
      @mountainroseherbs  Місяць тому

      Hi there! Stinging nettles are best harvested in the spring to early summertime while they’re still young and before the plant starts flowering. Happy harvesting! 🌿

    You are so fascinating to listen to! Thank you! May I ask you....how do you make a tea with stinging nettle? Don't you have to worry about the little needles getting in your oral and digestive mucosa???

    • @mountainroseherbs
      @mountainroseherbs  Рік тому

      Hi Shelly! Blanching or boiling the nettles removes the stinging needles and makes it safe to eat!

  • @teperikaetr
    @teperikaetr 9 місяців тому

    I bought online my stinging nettle and I have been consuming them for 3 years. I love it as tea form and I make soups which my kids love it. Recently I tincture the green flowers, but I am not sure if is safe to consume since there are some videos which says to only tincture the seeds.

    • @mountainroseherbs
      @mountainroseherbs  7 місяців тому

      Hi there! After doing a bit of research, I've found you a helpful article from the Oregon State University Extension Office that says "Nettles are best to eat or preserve when tender. Gather them early in the morning in early spring, before the plant flowers. For less bitterness, choose leaves that are no larger than 3 inches wide from plants no taller than 3 feet. Clip right above the node at an angle so the stem does not become waterlogged. Once flowers appear, greens become tough, with a less desirable taste." You can find the full article here: extension.oregonstate.edu/catalog/pub/em-9373-wild-edibles-stinging-nettle. I'd also suggest reaching out to your local university extension office to see if they can offer you any more information on the topic! Hope that helps!

    It would be helpful if your camera person would zoom in on the leaf when you describe it.

    Thank you, informative! Any contraindications regarding nettle? Can you drink the tea if you have hives from autoimmune issues? You mention using it to educate your system against a histamine reaction before allergy season...but what if you are in the midst of a histamine reaction?

    • @mountainroseherbs
      @mountainroseherbs  2 роки тому

      Hi Margie! Unfortunately, we can't give out medical recommendations like this. I would suggest checking with your preferred herbalist or naturopath so that they can get to know your specific conditions and advise you more clearly :) I hope that helps you out!
