New here to the forums. Looking forward to getting to know you all, and contributing to the community as I can.


I’m hoping somebody can guide me towards a good source for Bocking 14 comfrey. Perhaps open to 4, but since the main use will be green manure/mulch, I’d prefer 14.

I currently have a seed strain of comfrey, which is not ideal but has been steadfastly providing me with nutritious matter for the past several years. It’s starting to seed about a little bit, though, so I would like to slowly try to eradicate it (haha, I know) while replacing it with a Russian comfrey.

If this is not the right area of the forum, please feel free to gently slap me on the wrist and direct me to the right part

Thanks!

I have lots of bocking 14 available. Send me a PM with how much you're looking for. I'm always willing to take trades if that works better for you.

Thanks Greg. I appreciate that very much.
 
A lot of people cry when they cut onions. The trick is not to form an emotional bond. This tiny ad told me:
