- The most harmful weeds are – docks, chicken-weed, praiseac, which grows in oats & wheat; thistles; cockles – with a thorny head which fastens itself of one's clothes, black-heads, & "buacalláins" or tall yellow weeds, & "red soldiers" or wild poppies which grow in corn.
They are harmful both, because they spread rapidly & because they impoverish the soil.
Buttercups & clover grow where land is rich, and daisies where land is poor. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
