Decided to dig up some and move them. Of course a lot of them grew back. Kept some of the roots to grow more for my new location. A spot that I will never use for anything else...... The grass verge by the side of the road. Looking like I will have a decent harvest next year. Should I take of some of the soil and put them in and then put the soil back? They are ready to cut at the same time that the garden is fully planted. I have other comfrey plants for comfrey tea. Thinking maybe just compost them. Either way picture supplied

For humans, it is not recommended - but comfrey tea is also what we call liquid fertiliser made from comfrey.. similar to nettle tea.

Dumb of me mumofstig. Of course cc meant that. And I can think of a few things to do with jezza's quad bike man.....all of them too nasty to mention here.

I'd be nervous about the car exhaust fumes and particles getting deposited onto the comfrey leaves, into the comfrey tea, and thus onto edible crops when you apply the comfrey liquid fertiliser.
