Hope you get some sane answers Teasers,because I've just plastered 5 gals of the stuff all over our plot, with a mix of 6X and an awful lot of water...

It can't do any harm can it!

And I made another five gallons of nettle tea. Blimes, that stuff starts to ferment pretty quickly doesn't it!

Nettle soup is very nice to eat. I don't mean the smelly stuff you put on the garden but fresh nettle tops boiled with potato, etc. Plenty of recipes on t'internet.

I like nettle soup made really, really thick then passed through a seive and stirred into fusilli or penne with a bit of grated parmesan on the top
