New to forum,
Sow thistle really likes my garden, I was cutting it and putting it around my tomatoes which was really beneficial as a mulch I think. I'm also one that uses urine in my garden on a regular basis which one would think would burn plants if used too much but the sow thistle acts as a nitrogen accumulator and takes up what my tomatoes dont want. I just found another use for it (ausome) it seems to act as a wonderful trap crop. I noticed it is being decimated by aphids, in fact that's the only thing I see aphids on. Last year they would of been wrecking havoc on my kale but not now. I love what we can learn just by watching are garden up close.
