Harvesting and Preserving Lambs Quarters - Making Bread With Plants
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 тра 2017
- Common lambsquarters, a broadleaf plant, is among the most common summer annuals. It is found throughout California up to an elevation of 5900 feet (1800 m) and inhabits agricultural land and other disturbed areas. Generally common lambsquarters is considered edible. However under certain conditions, plant production of oxalates can increase to levels toxic to livestock when large amounts of leaves are consumed in a short time period. Common lambsquarter is also susceptible to many viruses that affect several crops and ornamentals. These include beet curly top; potato viruses X, M, and S; ringspot viruses of tomato, pepper, potato, Prunus species, and mulberry; and mosaic viruses of alfalfa, bean, beet, barley, lettuce, cucumber, squash, eggplant, hops, primula, watermelon, and wisteria. Many species of small mammals and birds consume the seeds.

Thank you 👍🏻🙏🏻 I just had some in a salad and I transplanted them I hope they survive!
Just found you tonight and subscribed. I love lambs quarters and was excited to hear that you make it into flour. I am definitely going to try that . I make flour from yellow dock seeds. It is very good. I parboil lambs quarters and eat it. Yummy . Thanks for this video
Thank you. I was looking for how to preserve it. I'm going out right now to harvest mine!

I have been looking for a bread recipe using Lambs Quarter. Many UA-camrs talk about doing it, but I have yet to find an actual recipe. Can you provide one, Please?!
I would like to see how you use it as a flour substitute too. We've been eating it a few years but I've not heard of it being used that way.
Hi. If i pull all of my plants out by the roots how will they grow back.? Should i cut them instead?
They spread by seed just leave one to go to seed thank you for your comments
I would be really interested to know how you use this for a flour substitute.
That got to worth doing a video about it. .
Dry it in a dehydrator is probably your best bet.
Salad fixins!!
Hi . I picked a bunch of the lambs quarter and most of them had a bunch of really small black bugs all bunched up together. Is this a common thing? And if so what are they?
Not sure about the bugs I would need a picture but for your question I believe it is common everyone including insects know how good it is for you. Our cow Daisy will run past everything to get to it. Thank you for the question
It sounds like aphids.
Do you feed Lambsquarter fresh to the Tilapia - mine did not like the Sweet Potato leaves yesterday. But I never thought I would say this but I dont have enough Dandelion because the Tilapia have eaten it all.
FOOD SECURITY TECH I subscribed😊
We have no Lambsquarter on the property - going to have to plant some. Go figure today (5/14/17) My husband retried introducing the sweet potato leaves and the Tilapia Gobbled them down - right out of his hand. I am going to make a video today on how we make our Tilapia feed - I will try to upload it this week. Happy Mother's Day to your wife.
I haven't been able to find any on our property. I want to plant some though.
All you will need is one plant, the wind will plant many more! I got my plant from a blueberry farm a couple years ago. Now I have many LQ plants!
I live in eastern Mi., I blanched and froze about 10-15 pounds this year,
