Elderberry – Wild Weeds

Wild Weeds – Weed of the Month

Elderberry

Sambucus nigra (subsp.) canadensis
Elderberry Flowers
Elderberry Flowers

Elderberry is a Florida native tree/shrub that is often found in wet, open spaces. From spring to fall Elderberry can be distinguished by its large, flat clusters of white flowers that develop into deep blue-black berry clusters in mid to late fall. Elderberry is found across almost the entire United States and southern Canada and can be found in natural areas but also has uses as an ornamental/ container plant.

It is important to note that all parts of the elderberry plant are extremely poisonous. Ripe berries can be used in pies, jams, jellies, wines, or other products that require cooking although some consumers may still be sensitive to elderberry products even after cooking.

Wow, I love this aquatic plant and your post takes me back 47 years when myself and another Botany student were gliding along in canal is the Everglades area. I spotted the plant and we both stopped paddling as we drifted by. And we drifted right by a huge gator, 12 footer, basking on the canal bank. Both the plant and the gator took our breath away. That is to say we held our breath hoping we did not startle that gator, he/she could easily have swamped our canoe! That is my first experience of seeing this plant in its natural setting. Thank you for your blog on the little things.

Detached air cells are not a food safety concern. It generally means the egg was laid defective or it was handled roughly which broke the membranes that hold the air sac in place. As always, if you have food safety concerns is it easier to just toss the egg.

The bird will continue to be a carrier for the disease. Her infectious load may be small but still has the potential to infect other birds and therefore it is best to humanely euthanize.

Hi, I have 5 duck eggs doing well in my incubator, one hatching next week and the others with a bit longer to go. I have had to lay 3 of them flat because they don't fit properly and I now want to move them into a new incubator but am scared it might harm them to go from lying on their sides to sitting upright? Also they have been incubated at 38 degrees Celsius and I would like the new incubator to be set at 37.5,will the decrease in temperature be okay for them? Thank you so much for any advice.

Only approved representatives can enter the AIMS site, this includes USDA representatives, state agriculture reps (Florida Department of Ag) and many approved tagging sites (like sale barns). Typically, many cattle don't have USDA registered numbers until they leave their birth place and go through an official channel like a sale barn that requires the USDA approved tag. If you were to have a cow die that has a USDA tag associated with your premise ID, it is best to at least keep records of that if you are not going to retire the number with USDA rep. These numbers are only utilized if a cow is found to have some disease, so an abundance of "dead" tags is not really an issue. There is more of an issue of private sales of USDA-tagged cattle and no trace record of what operations they have been on, since these individuals rarely contact representatives to have the ID numbers moved to the next premise ID.

So this is not something that can be done by the producer by accesing a web base system for example. It has to be done by an USDA representative

Alicia Halbritter

July 16, 2021

Hi Mr. Perez, Technically yes, you should be reporting the "retiring" of any tag number that has been assigned to your premise ID. You can do this by contacting your local Department of Agriculture representative. Of course, that is if the tag will not be removed and re-used on the operation.

To my knowledge, only state officials can access the national Animal Identification Management System (AIMS). You can reach out to your local FDACS animal industry inspector to see if they can access the report for you. However, this report will only tell you whoever originally put the ear tag in, it won't tell you where the cow has been since unless it went through an official channel (like a sale barn). Private individuals are unlikely to report the transfer of tagged cattle if purchased through private/individual sales.

I know from experience that some cactus will tolerate alkaline conditions, but it is preferable to avoid highly alkaline soils. So, the use of wood ash largely depends on your existing soil pH. Since nutrients can easily be leached from sandy soils, the addition of nutrients like potassium may be beneficial. But if your soil pH is within the preferrable range, the addition of wood ash may not be beneficial unless you only apply small amounts and monitor for changes in pH. Soil pH and nutrient testing is available through the UF/IFAS Soil Testing Lab: https://soilslab.ifas.ufl.edu/ESTL%20Tests.as

Oust (sulfometuron) is labeled to control dog fennel. Earlier they can treat dog fennel the better, before it reaches 16” high and becomes woody. Note that Oustar is no longer manufactured but the Oust can be tank mixed with Velpar (hexazinone) and both products will take advantage of the pre- and post-emergent activity. (from https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/fr064) Herbaceous weed control (grasses and broadleaf weeds) applied over-the-top of planted longleaf seedlings in early spring, at least one month after planting to allow for new root growth prior to herbicide treatment. Hexazinone plus Sulfometuron 6 oz ai/Ac + 1.5 oz ai/Ac Velpar® L Oust® XP 24 oz liq. + 2 oz mass/Ac Tank mix, very broad spectrum for grasses and broadleaves. Hexazinone plus Sulfometuron 7.6 oz ai/Ac 1.4 oz ai/Ac Oustar® *12 oz/Ac Pre-packaged mix, very broad spectrum. *Use 10 oz product on sandy soils. Another option to keep in mind when dogfennel is getting away and overtopping pine seedlings is a wicking bar application, using glyphosate in the wick, set at a height so you drive over the rows but also over all the young. Glyphosate works very well on dogfennel that’s reaching excessive height, but not yet past 20" tall or so. This also interrupts the late flowering and seed set of this plant and reduces future problems. These approaches can help with other pest plants, but dogfennel does tend to fade away once we get trees tall enough to start making shade and more needles to carry a fire.

Do you have a person who can ID poison ivy? We have a vine growing on the high tree with dull 3 leaves and fragrant white flowers. It looks similar to the pictures on the Google site for poison ivy, but our landscaper says it isn't poison ivy. He thinks it might be a honeysuckle vine. I guess that I don't feel confident of that diagnosis. My husband did touch it without any bad problems.

Hi Gladys, Traditionally we do not have many crops available for sale in Baker County, especially in large quantities. However, we do have a few commercial size producers such as Hodges Produce and Double Blake Farms. There are a few others that sell local fruits/vegetables but I am not sure on the amount they would be able to supply regularly. I recommend having the jail reach out to the Extension office if they would like to be put in contact with our local producers.

I am a member of Baker Interfaith Friends. We have been visiting detainees at Baker Jail until the virus interfered. One of the comments we always hear is that there are never fresh fruits or vegetables available. We met with one of the jail staff and were told that no fruit or vegetables grow in Baker County because the soil is so poor. We felt that buying fresh food locally would help the grower and the detainees at the jail. Living in Gainesville, I am very much aware of IFAS and their knowledge and assistance. Can you recommend growers who do produce fresh food in quantity that could be sold to Baker County Jail. Thanks so much for your help.

Hi Ali, Organic compost is great for supplying plant nutrients, retaining soil moisture and is sometimes useful for adjusting pH. I don't believe any of the materials you mentioned are strongly acidic if you are wishing to lower the soil pH. Leaf litter can help lower pH, but I've read that it becomes less acidic during the composting process. Coconut husks tend to be slightly acidic to neutral, but would certainly help retain water in sandy soils. Fish products are good for adding micro-nutrients in addition to some macros. One resource I like to reference for soil amendments and fertilizers can be found here: https://extension.umd.edu/sites/extension.umd.edu/files/_images/programs/hgic/Publications/HG42_Soil_Amendments_and_Fertilizers.pdf And for composting tips, see: https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/ep323

I appreciate your willingness to engage in the conversation regarding our food supply. There is a lot of misinformation out there and I encourage you to speak to real agricultural producers to get the full story on where your food comes from. I did mention that a drastic change in meat consumption would lead to waste, and this is because of the time frame it would take for reduced demand to lead to reduced production. (All of the meat we will eat for the next 2-3 years had already been born or they are in utero now. This means, if we all stopped eating beef today the hanging meat would all go to waste and the beef herds on the ground today would have nowhere to go, or would be euthanized. ) Again, thanks for joining the conversation and I appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you for your in depth report. You point out some good things, but I also feel like some are misguided or generalizations. First of all, my take on eating less meat to reduce our carbon footprint is something that will never be done overnight. By having an absolute, all or nothing view is unrealistic. I would prefer people to just eat less meat individually for not only their health, but the health of our planet as well. As a society, we have normalized eating meat 2-3 times a day in our meals on average, and not only that, but consuming twice the amount recommended per day to ward off disease. Meat consumption also looks different around the world, with variables such as climate, availability, and culture. Secondly, the industrialization of how we produce meat is the largest contributor to climate change. Think about this, where do we get the food to feed the cattle? How much land is being destroyed to create crops that strictly feed cattle alone? We might use 100 acres of corn or soy to feed, 10 acres of cattle, to feed even less people after all is said and done (don't quote me on those numbers as this is just a example. There are documentaries that state these numbers along with sources). Couldn't that original amount of land be used to grow plants? You mentioned gas and fuel in everyday life. That's true. But what about how much fuel and gas is used in the transportation across long distances by way of truck? Supply Chains are vast when it comes to the meat industry. This doesn't leave out transporting vegetables, but one solution is to buy from local farms, both meat and vegetables. By buying local, you reduce the amount of fuel used, and also get fresher food that support your local farmers. The other problem with industrial meat is the quality. The animals are warehoused and never live a life naturally as they would in the wild or, at least raised on a farm to graze and fertilize soil as intended. Industrial meat animals never leave their small pens and can also be pumped with antibiotics to keep them from getting sick due to the tight conditions. Then you eat that beef. What do you think happens to your body? Third, we are the most unhealthiest, fattest, highest anxiety countries in the world. Our diets are horrible, we eat too much, don't exercise or move enough, and all while throwing away too much. It's not about cutting out meat one day a week, it's about making more conscious decisions and learning about where our food comes from, and how food affects our bodies. Forth, meat being an essential nutrient is a little far fetched. Yes there are certain nutrients that an animal eats that we get nutrients from, such as B12 . This is actually a bacteria that comes from soil, hence the reason why cows eat grass and dirt and have this in their bodies. It is possible to be on a plant-based diet and get all of your nutrients. It is also possible to eat only a few times a week, if that, and live a very healthy life. Check out the Seventh Day Adventist study on their diet and lifestyle and why they are so healthy. Lastly, I appreciate your report, and I am not trying to bash your work. You have some good points in there. I just feel like some aspects were missing in painting this larger scale picture. Peace and Blessings -Shawn

What rubbish! Eating less meat would cause more meat to go to waste? That is ignorant at best. If you have any knowledge of supply and demand - any - you would resize that reduced demand would lead to reduced “production.” Simply getting nutrients from meat is a reason to continue the horrible practices such as factory farming and meaningless killing and maltreatment of living beings sounds like logic our government would use. I’m shocked that IFAS with the little credibility it has would allow ridiculous content such as this. The alternatives have merit yet should absolutely not be in lieu of creating an increasingly environmentally aware society which also increases compassion.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a natural and beneficial constituent of the atmosphere. By volume percentage, 99% of dry air is nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%). Most of the rest is argon (0.93%), with carbon dioxide amounting to only 0.04%, but slowly increasing. Even smaller amounts of other gases, neon, helium, methane etc., make up the remainder. Atmospheric CO2 is a key to life on earth, this is because plants use sunlight to combine CO2 molecules from the air with H2O molecules to make carbohydrates (for example, sugar) and other organic compounds. In the process, oxygen molecules (O2) are released to the atmosphere. At CO2 levels less than 150 ppm (parts per million), most plants stop growing. Over most of the history of multicellular life on earth, CO2 levels have been three or four times higher than present levels. Current CO2 levels of 400 ppm are still much less than optimum for most plant growth.

Actually, Mr. Hall reduction in demand for meat will have little impact on GHG emissions since US cattle are only responsible for .47% of global GHG emissions and since cattle are 15-18 months before reaching market weight changes in demand take years to influence actual cattle numbers. As the blog explains, encouraging global practices to become as efficient as US beef production (which means globally increasing the demand for beef) will not only provide high quality protein at an affordable cost worldwide but also has the potential to reduce GHG emissions on a global scale and reduce the global herd numbers by 62%. We suggest you take a peak at our other blog Meatless Monday Can't Change the World to get an idea of some real world action you can take to make a significant impact on your personal GHG emissions (without sacrificing the taste & nutrition that meat provides)! https://blogs.ifas.ufl.edu/bakerco/2019/10/08/meat-climate-change/

Ms. Willis, There are many rules and regulations regarding the movement of cattle, not only on a federal level but also on a state level. You are correct that in general, animals moving directly to slaughter do not need an identification tag and that federal regulations only require ID tags on animals over 18 months old. This article was only to explain the transition timeline of moving to RFID tags, no other part of the current cattle identification rules have proposed changes. Yes, the transition has been stalled for now and we are working on an updating the information here to prepare for potential changes to the plan.

Ms. Halbritter, My working understanding of the Cattle ID program is different from the information you shared. Cattle that enter commerce through a livestock market do not have to be tagged. They are only required to be tagged if they leave the market for destinations other than a slaughter plant. Also I believe the USDA has changed the time line for EID requirements. As a point of information, the Federal rule only applies to over 18 month old bovine crossing state lines. It would be helpful if you would check your facts and revise your information to help producers as they market their cattle.

Hi Patricia, While some carnivorous plants may not grow in the wild in South Florida, I would think that if you were able to provide the right conditions (similar to the environmental conditions they experience in the wild) you would have success. However, depending on the genus, that will involve providing them with some cooler temperatures so that the plant can experience winter dormancy. According to my carnivorous plant book, Sarracenias do require a period of winter dormancy. They also prefer a planting media of 1:1 peat moss:sand and sphagnum, and require an acid wetland with water that is low in dissolved nutrients. I would suggest you consult with other botanical gardens in South Florida to see which plants they are growing, and select species that grow naturally down into Central FL as these are likely to be more tolerant of the tropical winter weather. I will also send you some additional information on carnivorous plant terrariums and bog gardens through email which you may find helpful.

Can any carnivorous plants grow in South florida? We would like to do a display at our botanical garden in Davie, Florida and all the literature says that carnivore plants grow as far south as central florida. We are looking for carnivore plants that will best survive and how to best grow them (light, medium, water). We really like the tall Sarracenias. Suggested nurseries? Any help will be appreciated.

Your first argument about methane is missing something. You bring up poundage of CO2 from fossil fuels but forgot to compare that to how much methane cows produce and correlate that to an estimate of CO2 ultimately produced. You might want to clarify the output of methane from cattle and convert that to a tonnage or poundage of CO2, so you can make a more fair comparison. Otherwise it was though provoking. :)

Hi Ken! Absolutely. The point there is trying to show that the greenhouse gas emissions are not as strong as one might think if they are thought of in a 'net' system. Since grass-finished cattle require more pasture to graze, and that pasture is continuously using CO2 from the atmosphere for respiration, then grass-finished production systems have the ability to maintain a lower net GHG (42% less) than if compared to the cattle's emissions alone (since pasture raised cattle emit more GHG than grain-finished cattle due to eating forage and longer time spans before reaching market weight). You can see the graphic here: https://www.beefresearch.org/sustainability/q06/index.html The Fact Sheet Here: https://www.beefresearch.org/CMDocs/BeefResearch/Sustainability_FactSheet_TopicBriefs/FS6_Grass-fed_vs_Grain-fed_Final.pdf And the research study associated with that fact here: http://econ2.econ.iastate.edu/classes/crp274/swenson/CRP566/Readings/Leopold_2010-04-comparative-life-cycle-environmental-impacts-three-beef-production-strategies-upper-midwestern-unite.pdf

Karl Thiderman’s comment regarding the grass in Texas 200 years ago was high as the backs of the horses is a bit exaggerated i’m Thinking. My family homesteaded in the Sandhills of Nebr 100 years ago and you could track a coyote for miles through and in between the bunch grass. Nowadays the Sandhills are covered with good feed for thousands of cattle. Actual facts should be important. Also in the comment it’s mentioned regarding the soil returning the water practices. It’s been proven that sheep and cattle grazing the land make indentations in the ground holding the water to go down to the roots, compared to taking all grazing off those pastures only ruins the soil trying to grow those plants.

Hi Alicia, An important point not made in your excellent article is that how livestock are grazed determines whether their impact on the land is beneficial or deleterious. Historically, much land globally has been desertified by poor grazing management. Consider how parts of Texas that today resemble the desert was covered by grass as high as people on horseback just 200 years ago. Fortunately, new approaches to grazing that emulate how grazing occurs in nature are restoring degraded grasslands and savannas, improving wildlife habitat, replenishing dried-up rivers, increasing ranching profitability, and capturing in soil 1 to 3 tons of carbon per acre per year (Machmuller 2015, Teague 2016). This video may be of interest. Soil Carbon Cowboys (2014, 12 mins.) Meet Allen Williams, Gabe Brown, and Neil Dennis - climate heroes and innovators! These ranchers now know how to regenerate their soils while making their animals healthier and their operations more profitable. They are turning on their soils, enabling rainwater to sink into the earth rather than run off. And these regenerated soils retain that water, so the ranches are much more resilient in drought. It's an amazing story that has just begun. https://vimeo.com/80518559/ Best wishes, Karl Thidemann Soil4Climate

Hello, What causes the albumen of a chicken egg to be lime green in color? I have been raising chickens for egg sales and personal consumption for roughly 15 years and every so often I will come across an egg that will have a greenish tint to the white. The color can range from almost neon green to a light hint of color. I haven't sold any eggs this year so from all that our family has consumed we have noticed two eggs with the color change. There is no odor and I don't know about taste because I always discard them. The flock is currently contained to their coop and have day long access to a bare ground run that I sprinkle with vegetation and scratch grains. The chickens range in age from 1 to 6 years. The floor of the coop is covered with a layer of white pine shavings and they are fed a layer crumble.

The use of Electronic ID tags has been in the works for a while, talks with the EU about an export market have been as well but the two are not directly related. Having a stronger disease traceability system does make our aptitude for exporting beef stronger, but it is not currently a requirement of the EU export deal. At least as I currently understand the information that has been published. You can learn more about the EU export market opening here: https://www.ncba.org/audionews.aspx?NewsID=7008&fbclid=IwAR3OrX2dS1KntsxgA_tKbCka5OipTS1rYkOWYprHaloyzz1nCeYr6l6YNmg And more about the USDA's move to EID tags here: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/traceability/downloads/plan-to-achieve-eid-factsheet.pdf

Connie, Dog fennel can be very difficult to control as it will sprout if any root tissue is left underground. It is best to study the "Dog Fennel Control with Herbicides" section of this article and decide at what height your dog fennel is and what you will need to control it. If used correctly (according to the label), the herbicides will have no ill-effects on your cattle.

John, Pokeberry are toxic, and symptoms can range from mild to severe based on each persons own reaction. Similar to how you can eat peanut butter just fine, but someone who is allergic (more sensitive) will have a severe reaction. Here is some information from poison control: https://www.poison.org/articles/2012-aug/pokeberries-and-grapes-look-alike Birds and other animals can consume the berries because 1. They often only eat them when completely ripe when toxins are relatively low, and 2. They have some type of digestive mechanism that makes them less sensitive or immune to the toxins. It is a beautiful plant, and people are welcome to keep the plant around to feed the wildlife, but should be mindful of children's interaction with the plant.

Gwen, Any meat imported into the US must undergo the same level of inspection before, during, and after slaughter that meat processed in the US must. Therefore, that countries on-the-hoof traceability program would not apply to processed meat. Any processed meat that is imported must undergo it's own testing before being allowed in the country and any contamination found after the fact would be traced back to the processing facility, these issues are normally food borne illness and have little or nothing to do with the issues we are tracking with live cattle identification (animal disease).

Moving directly to slaughter or through one approved livestock market and then directly to slaughter, 2. Moving to an approved tagging site, or 3. Being moved from one premises to another premises with the cattle remaining under common ownership as part of normal farm or ranching operations. Cattle shall not be commingled with cattle under separate ownership.

It is illegal to not have proper identification on cattle that enter the marketplace. Currently, first time offenders can receive up to an $1,100 fine, secondary (or more) offenses can occur much higher fees. If you plan to sell at a market or other commercial avenue the EID tag will be required no matter what, and markets will not accept cattle without proper identification, or will charge a fee to tag the cattle themselves. If you currently sell cattle, you already comply with these laws using the metal tags, they are simply changing the type of tag that will be accepted as official identification.

Hi Mike! Imported beef is held to the same food safety standards that USA-grown beef is! Any imported meat, poultry, and egg (or really any food product) undergoes strict evaluation before being allowed in the country and must originate from a country, establishment, or plant that is already certified to export to the US, and the products are re-inspected at the port of entry. Live cattle travelling to the US must undergo strict quarantine periods to ensure they are free from disease, we even have restrictions on some countries that we do not allow live animals from due to their current disease status. Since the use of EID's is for disease traceability it really is only important for live animal tracking, once an animal reaches a processing facility it can be tested and tracked back to its previous locations to track a potential disease outbreak. Since meat being exported in the US has already undergone testing, the countries we import from will not need to use EID's. However, as stated before, those countries the US import beef from have already been vetted by the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service and have their own disease tracibility program.

Hi Janice, Pullets from a local feed store cannot be guaranteed for any specific traits. You may want to keep her away from too much bedding. It is recommended to put pullets in a wire bottom cage so that the nesting instinct cannot be encouraged. Nesting areas and warmer weather encourages broodiness in addition to eggs being left for them to sit on. Be sure and collect them daily so there isn't a reason to sit, having a pole for them to roost on is better than nesting boxes if you are wanting to discourage broodiness.

I purchased a dozen commercial breed layer pullets from the local feed store. They are all adult and hens are laying, one turned out to be a rooster. Anyway, one of my barred rock hens disappeared and turns out she was setting on several eggs She was not in the hen house but in a sheltered area of brush. To hurry up the incubation, I took the eggs and replaced them with a few chicks from the feed store. She is a good mother hen. My question is, I thought that the brooding tendency had been bred out of the commercial layers. Now I see another adult laying hen, silver laced wyandotte, setting as well. I am quite surprised as this cuts down on the production for quite a while

Because no soil media is allowed in restaurants, commercial microgreen growers use these mats so that trays can be stored in refrigerators for a couple of weeks and cut as needed. The mats can be composted but should not be reused. The roots of cut microgreens would begin to rot and this would cause problems for the newly planted crop. The mats can be purchased in bulk and some types are even offered as large rolls. If reusing media is important to you, using a media like potting soil would probably bring you better results.
