Nettle

Crops, herbs and berries

A sting in the leaf, linen in the stem.

How to get it

Set nettles in any soil; cut the stems with care and they grow back. Ready in about 22 minutes (4 stages; any climate; no water needed). Each pick gives 2 to 4; the plant stays and fruits again. Dyers boil it green; spinners take the stems.
