Nettles have stringy fiber in stem as well, which
can be used like flax/hemp fibers for cloth. I
assume you would pull up whole plant, let dry, then
"ret" in shallow water until outer stem begins to
degrade. That means partially degrade. Can use
shallow natural stream where won't float away or
childs plastic wading pool with just water to cover
or I suppose a tote.Then rinse in clear water until
slime is gone, and let dry in sun. Then whack stems
with stick until outer shell cracks and falls away
from fibers. Which should be dried in sun. The
retting shouldn't take more than 2-3 weeks in cool
weather, days in hot weather. Fibers can be spun
like flax.
Everyone [children and adults] should learn how to
spin and ply a simple yarn/thread. Find directions
for simple spindles or do simple thigh spinning.
These fibers and others, such as fibers of cedar
roots [exposed, don't have to cut down tree], are
the basis of rope. Directions for rope on internet
too.

Some of the plants are better yet kept in containers as they are close to being consider weeds....but I would add to them....cat-tails...you might have to supply it in an muddy bog environment though...but the roots/tubers can be eaten as potato, and the cat catils when still green can be eaten like corn on the cob, when it goes into the later stage it looks like fluff and can be used as filling material. They can also serve was fuel for an fire....when dried.

Would of been cheaper and wiser to fill those
cans with bricks instead of ammunition..Plastic
ammo boxes are useless.They deform in heat or
sunlight and the seals as shown will shrink.Mil
spec cans are strong, air and water tight
available in larger sizes and can be used to
store almost anything in..Great for handguns as
well.Clean and oil them,wrap them up with a
microfiber cloths and throw in extra
magazines,ammo and a couple silica dessicant
packs put a lock on the box and your set.Grab and
go..I have a bunch of .50 cal large boxes I keep
camping and emergency gear in plus they double as
something to sit on rather than packing folding
chairs or half a dozen make a small table if you
need

I had no idea the metal boxes were that well made. I'm thinking of a
box for the boat, camping supplies & more. I would have never put
bullets in them & leave it in the water a year. They're too expensive.

Actually they are pretty reasonably priced for
what you get..Average $20 to $40 U.S depending on
size and they are tough and durable.Dont forget
they are used to carry ammo in combat
conditions..Usually 16 gauge steel, solid
handles and clasps easy to carry well worth the
price...Shop around or go to a surplus store and
check them out.I buy bulk ammunition and my
reloader supplies it in the .50 cal boxes and
then bitches at me because I dont bring them back
but any surplus place has them
