This is, by far (as in leaps and bounds), the most clear, coherent, cogent, comprehensive, constructive, charismatic video slash presentation slash teaching module on yellow rocket and mustard plant family identification that I have ever come across (and believe you me, I have actively been looking!). Thank you so much for all the research, filming, editing, compiling, etc. that you invested in this fantastic product. I have subscribed and look forward to thoroughly enjoying more of your content. One of my absolute favourite parts of your video is that your voiceover is recorded by an actual live human being using a natural timbre of voice with a natural cadence as opposed to a manufactured sound that is highly edited. This aspect made the audio component truly a joy to consume. Looking forward to the next video!

I have this grows all over the river/forest edge near my place. I saw a bunch while harvesting Japanese knotweed. I said to myself I recognize that plant from one of my books I'm sure I can eat it but I'm not sure what part. So I'm glad I found your video

Thanks. Informative video for info on other species too. I have deliberately built up the seedbank of wintercress in my garden so I can have it when I want it, I transplant them here and there in the spring for the flowers, and then keep some through the season for more seed which I scatter about, and for leaves. Cliff- I kind of assume that any crucifer is edible (e.g. I also like leaves of Dame's Rocket),- do you have any info on toxicity of any species in our region? Everything in moderation of course especially when it's the first time trying it.

Apart from allergies, I don't know of any problems with cruciferous vegetables. Not everything among the brassicaceae is palatable, but none of it is toxic, to my knowledge. Most of it probably has some kind of use at some point or another in its life cycle.

Do all wild mustards or brassicas have yellow flowers or do the colours vary? Also are the leaves, stems, and flowers all edible on all of their varieties? Thanks!

The blossoms are not always yellow. The color is not the diagnostic criterion, but the form. Petals in an X form and 4 tall stamens to the center and 2 short stamens to the side, at the wide parts of the X. No parts of brassicas are poisonous but not all parts will be edible. It will depend on the nature of the plant and when they are harvested. Like most plants, there are only certain periods where parts are edible.

@@UNDERST0RY So like most plants, the tender parts are usually edible. So I would assume that early in the season most of the parts are edible, and at the end of the growth cycle the flowers, and small tender leaves are edible, but the stem would most likely be too woody! Thanks again for expanding my wild forage palate with this video!
