Well, I do know that comfrey fermented in water makes good plant food. But
it smells like the urinal in a subway!

I compost mine (comfrey), which makes a good rich compost, since comfrey
has a lot of N in it.

Which is wandering _way_ off topic. I have a bunch of grafting questions,
but I'm going to wait until the handbook arrives from NAFEX, so I look
slightly less dumb. I know, there's no such thing as a dumb question. You
know that's not _exactly_ true.
