1. Harmful Weeds

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   The farmers are the constant enemies of the harmful weeds. Some weeds are harmful because they spread rapidly, grow strong quickly, and thus smother the seedlings which the farmers sow. Other impoverish the soil by using up all the manure set out for other plants, to strengthen themselves. Many of such weeds are not to be found in poor soil as they require nourishment which is not to be found in poor land.
   I've heard my father speak of such weeds as the Praiseach Bhuidhe or Charlock, the Buachallan or Ragweed, Sponnc or Coltsfoot, the Feócadán or thistle, the Cupóg or Dock-leaf, the Cois Phréacháin or Crowsfoot, Glúineach; Clúbán; An Géasadán, Broim-fhéar, The Sheep Sorrel; Chickenweed, The Black Buttons; The Cockle Yarrow, Rib-leaf, Grounsel.
   Glúineach: -
   is said to be so called because of the knots on the stem resembling knees.
