Very cool journal entry!!
To be fair, I had seeds that I bought few months ago, and not all of them had good results, so it's probably about genetics also.
I 've read your comment to @roleerob and it isn't the first time I hear about putting nettles in salads, I haven't given it a shot yet, it has tons of benefits apparently.
I've also read what your thoughts on the situation with the V, and I have to agree with you on this.
I hope that by the end of the year, more info, data will surface about the reported deaths and averse reactions, in the meantime, I send you all the good vibes that I can, as the world is looking more and more like this
take care!
