Herb verification

[Shane Grennay]

I need help figuring out if some plants I have are herbs or weeds.

And how can I attach photos to these kind of messages.

What are you trying to ID? are you looking for a particular herb? suspecting that a plant might be a particular herb? herbs/weeds, sometimes kind of mean the same thing, depending on context, if one wants them or not. I took a class in local flora a few years ago, and I have a degree in natural resources. But I have moved on to otherthings, but I still like to ID things I see growing. I sometimes still miss certain things, as even professionals make mistakes. But I never consume things unless I am absolutely sure that its the correct thing. For ritual use its probably not quite so important, unless you want to consume it or apply it to your skin, or somehow else be exposed to it.  Here is an image of sheep sorrel. Its an herb, or a weed in some peoples opinion. A GREAT source of iridium/rhodium, and some vitamins and other minerals. http://www.dgsgardening.btinternet.co.uk/sorrel.htm  The home page has a listing of links with photos for herbs/weeds http://www.dgsgardening.btinternet.co.uk/weeds.htm This is just one example of a resource for helping you ID weeds/herbs. Think critically, what other things COULD this plant be, and might it hurt me? I like guides that list possible look alikes, and I look them up for comparision, always looking for objective means of ID. Some plants I simply won't touch in the wild because there are too many things that look alike that are toxic.
