Used to be alot of "Indiana ditch weed" growing wild around these parts, at least that's what the local farmers said it was LOL but it's pretty well been eradicated. 

 Don't sweat it blackhawk I remember those days gone by, well partially remember any way LOL Jesus still loves you though buddy.

The main problem 'harvesting' ditch weed is trying to convince any law officer that you only want the stems. Good luck on that. ::)
