Wow, the terrible effects of Giant Hogweed
Bloody hell I knew it was a nasty plant and its turning up all over the UK, but imagine getting stung by it after TSHTf when it will no longer be controlled by the authorities and growing freely.

You can eat Japanese Knott Weed!!! Worth checking out for when TSHTF. Not to grow or cultivate!!! Just to learn about what it looks like, and how to cook it.
As for the Hogweed....harsh.

RE: Wow, the terrible effects of Giant Hogweed
Maybe a good thing to cultivate around a bol?
CAREFULLY....
Keep the post apocalyptic chavs at bay....
If my leg looked like that after a small encounter, I'd definitely give the place a WIDE berth next time no matter what goodies were there...
I tried to be normal once.... Worst two minutes of my life...

RE: Wow, the terrible effects of Giant Hogweed
you can see stuff like this and Japanese knotweed all over Devon, it spreads all along the river valleys and is a blooming nightmare to get rid of.
yet another good reason NOT to go walking in the countryside in SHORTS! apart from this stuff there is the always present threat of TICKS! seems some people will never learn, to say nothing of lymes disease.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: Wow, the terrible effects of Giant Hogweed
i worked for the m e b looking after their sub stations, jnw could if left unchecked lift up the concrete slabs with the transformers on them we had access to the best strongest weed killer, nothing touched it .
all the meb could do is jcb the weed out and if they left just a bit of root back with a bang
