Default Re: [ATE] Farming example

Still no landline so no formatting.

Next up is a shot at the town Doctor's garden. This is what I can think of off the top of my head. But does anyone have any other ideas for medically useful plants?

Medically useful farming
- poppies
- cannabis (easily available anyway)
- sugar or starch rich for alcohol production.
- fibre plant, flax or cotton.
- animals for bones and fat to make soap
- oil rich plants, olive, sunflower, pumpkin, canola etc.
- melon(?) (for penicillin purists)
- antiseptic, garlic, myrtle
- insect repelling, citronella
- anti parasitic,* tobacco, manuka.
- foxglove
- wood for wood alcohol and turpentine.
- most garden herbs have or have claims of a health benefit.
- insect farm. Maggots have their uses.
- hops
- equines, possibly for antivenoms (??) And for faeces for bacterial filtration.

Salvage desired
- dental floss for stitches
- sulphuric acid as an ether precursor
