Description

Grows huge leaves which is why its primary use is as a fertiliser. Much prized by organic growers, it makes an excellent potash fertilizer for tomatoes and potatoes.

Leaves are cut and put into a tub with water to make a very nutritious feed for all garden plants. Not edible.

Essentially grown for compost-making since it fixes many nutrients and trace elements through its growth.

Disclaimer
As with all alternative medicines and plants with purported medicinal benefits it is important to inform your health care providers that you are using them; this helps to ensure safe and coordinated care. We can accept no liability for any side effect or contingency from any allergy or any other cause or harm that may arise. If in doubt please do consult a medical practitioner before using.Do not take in large quantities or over a long period of time as may cause liver damage or have carcinogenic effects. Not recommended for use if pregnant or breast feeding.


To Make Fertiliser
Soak the leaves in water for approximately 4 weeks (this can be a very smelly process so we recommend using a container with a close-fitting lid). This produces a potash-high feed ideal for tomatoes and potatoes.
Alternatively you can pick the leaves and leave them for at least 48 hours and then use them as a mulch.
Some gardeners also lay comfrey leaves in trenches which they then plant potatoes in.
