Dandelions benefit the soil too. They bring up minerals from deep in the soil just like Comfrey does.

Most Dandelions only send roots down about 3 to 5 feet though due to the geology.

I think the world record Dandelion height was around 6 feet tall too.

Great post thumbs up!

NON ASSUMPSIT. I am by no means an expert at anything. Just a lucky guesser.
