- There are other dangerous weed growing such as the docken, the chicken weed, Forhán, bohalan, black-heads and dandelions.
The docken grows on bad land among nettles. If a person burned himself with a nettle he could cure it by applying the juice of a docken to it.
The dandelion grows in the fields. In olden times the juice of the dandelion was used for curing colds.
