  1. Herbs
    Many dangerous weeds row on the farms and cause much damage. One of them is the chicken weed because it spreads rapidly and chokes the rowing young plants. The nettles grow by walls and ditches and are very good for the blood. The geoghasadan is a very bad weed as it spreads quickly and impoverishes the soil. The rushes and fellistroms row in bogs and in the water. Dandelions tea or wine is excellent for rheumatism.
