Shawn Woods when I first spotted the title of the video I could have sworn it said growing devil's club. My reaction was why would someone want to do that. Then I reread it.

Maybe not the winter season, but i ask the same quastion, but in Scandinavia, can i store them (the plants) in a pot during the winter season to prevent them from freezing? Maybe they also should be protected from to much rainwater, since we hawe the oposite problem here with a damp could climat i guess... so i guess the same for England about the rain and humidity.

@@harrelltruckandtractor9641 That's an interesting thing i noticed actualy, how much those fine details may affect the whole eco system wen one for example introduce new species, like harmless garden flowers to another place, where the climate are different, or native species find a new nisch created by human activity or it's natural behaviour collide with our own interests in more or less unexpected ways. That's quite interesting.

I miss these types of videos. Your mousetrap Monday is cool, but your other content is just as good.

Thanks for another great video Shawn. Brightened up my morning cup of tea in a rainy England. Thanks buddy.

These are growing wild here on our property in Arizona. I finally figured out what they were called. I saw one of these pods a long long time ago and it was so creepy I didn’t know what it was. Thank you for your explanation. ❤️👍👍

There is a medicinal Namibian plant also called devil's claw. Tubers used for treating inflammation,arthritis etc.

They are related! There are at least five species of Devil's Claw (Proboscidea), an African one where the pod looks a lot like the American one (Proboscidia parviflora), and another where the "claw" is flattened and bug like.

another youtuber found a viable tomato seed that was 87 years old and it looks like its from a instinct variety of tomato too so if it bears fruit he may send some of the seeds to a organization that works to bring back extinct crops

Shawn one of the main reason's I've always enjoyed you as a person & your video's, you take what ""those who came before us"" did to survive every day life & you bring it all back to life, you put your heart & soul in to preserving a way of life, that humankind survived by for 1,000's & 100,000's of years & then you share it with so many. most of these people probably think you started the mouse trapping videos, just because you like to kill mice & rats lol, when it all started from a trapping video about something the Western Native American did to provide a staple diet, they ate what they had & they adapted with it.. best wishes bro

Youre a man of many many talents

I'm used to seeing those all the time and i hate them, they claw into your legs when walking and draw blood. But i never knew the history about them, pretty cool. made me hate them a little less.

Growing up with these in the Texas panhandle i always just considered them a quirky little weed that was a fun toy. Interesting to find out that it's edible as well.

volkkeslate same here, I always liked collecting them for some reason. Me and my cousins called them devil skulls though

Looking forward to your basket video in future. Thanks for sharing.

my uncle tried to grow these. they grow wild here in karnes county texas. the cows were moving them around. i found them on a dirt road where the cattle had been crossing.

Its funny, never thought id see another youtuber talk about them. I used to grow the all the time in the AV where it gets up to 100 degrees,so they grow very well here

would love to see a meal from these in the future

Here where I live in N Central Texas, devil's claw is a plant that was always found on our rabbit hunts, it had a tendency to grab onto your pants leg. Still easy to find in some areas.

Oh yes. I remember those well growing up in New Mexico

i use to step on those when i was a little kid. i dont see them much anymore. south Texas.

I remember finding these everywhere in the Phoenix area as a kid.

I honestly would love to see you revisit this crop. I'm intruiged and want to see how you would use these to weave a basket.

My grandma used to grow these i was so scaired of them when they dried up 😄

"I got these seeds from a man in a dark suit standing at a crossroads at midnight."

You are a really cool dude! Keep it up!

you should do a survival tip video on how to build a trap out of stuff you can find in the woods to catch food

I've heard there's medicinal qualities as well, but can't recall offhand what those are

..apparently used to help eliminate uric acid from the blood, and therefore the formation of uric acid crystals in the joints, which cause the condition called gout. But I'm not sure just which part of the plant is used, whether it is the roots or seeds, or what.

another great video shawn. keep it up. ps you're my idle. I'm hoping I can be a combination of me and my dad when I grow up. It's weird but... oh well.

These grow wild around my area (near Sacramento ,Ca ) I never knew they were edible

+poot111111 Well, flowers are the reproductive organs of a plant. So, yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if KZread started censoring flower pictures as well.

It is called proboscidea louisianica. They do grow wild in Northern California. I've grown them in the vegetable garden. The leaves of the plant are very slimy and it gets on your skin easily, and is very smelly. I never thought of eating any part of the plant. Maybe the seeds are edible? Odd plant.

didnt know these were edible, we just collected them as kids because they are cool looking.

Man those dried seeds look like something out of a Ridley Scott film. Yikes! Question: What are the seeds good for? Eating obviously, but more specifically. Thanks Shawn great video!

Grew up with these in se Colorado... and they were def considered a weed and nuisance. They didn't have any problem thriving in the arid environment there... sometimes would take over a whole field. Didn't know there was any native use for these as food source out otherwise. Pretty sure I would never propagate and would never suggest propagation either. :) Depends on how good the seeds are. Let us know.

Hello Shawn, please do a video on how to make otzi the iceman shoes.:)

Interesting plant, What do you do with the seeds ?,Cook,?

Where are you located that you had problems growing your seeds? We are located in Pennsylvania and would like to try growing this. Do you have any thoughts? Thank you for sharing! Great video!

Mine got huge this year probably 30 seed pods

In my area I have only found them growing on Southern facing slopes. Have you experienced this as well?

cool plant, but, how do you harvest the oil? imagine how many you would need to make a basket...

growing up my mom always warned us kids to look out for devil's claw when hiking out in the desert 'cause those things will tear up your ankles if you step on one

I let one grow in my pasture jist to see what kind of plant it was. Oh boy now I can't get rid of them. they have come up by the 100s every year since.

I grew up in Arizona, and those were a common plant to come across. Horrible little buggers, always manage to get stuck around your ankle. I've bled many time because of those things.

Question, what's the food value of the seeds? Grind them into flour, roast them? Press them into oil??

If you take the whole plant and put it in the chicken house they will catch the fleas because they are sticky

Sooo... Do the seeds taste good or are you just growing them for fun?

Devil originated in Africa. Please check history of plants please. Thanks. Peace. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Do you only grow them for basket weaving or are they edible?

Interesting video

Hmmmm... A plant with a scary name that's also edible. Lol :)

Do you eat the kernels like corn?

please do a sheep horn bow plz.

those claws can trap mouse

Crazy looking

How do you eat these?

I prefer mouse trap Monday

I like to pickle these and serve them in a bloody mary
