Stinging nettle is everywhere man. Its really really good for for increasing sex hormones. Actually it makes hormones more productive per say. It increase sbhg, sex binding hormone globulin
I usually pick in august but im no expert.
Actually im lying lol, ill grab it whenever I find it. You want the leaves, be careful cause it hurts like heck for about 24 hours if you touch the branches.
