- the dock and thistle are the most harmful weeds growing on the farm and they both spread rapidly and make the soil poor and bad, and to make matters worse they only grow in good ground. House-leek is used for sore eyes. Bogbean is used for stomach complaints. Thistles and pignuts are supposed to be food for cattle. Pignuts are little things like potatoes only much smaller they grow in dry places.Some herbs were used as cures for diseases long ago but they are not used now as we have medicinal cures.
