as anyone else grown, cooked, eaten patience dock, Rumex patientia ? I got some seeds and was wondering if you planted yours in the fall or spring. And what did you cook with it?

I googled it because I had never heard of it. Read that it can be used in salads or as a mild laxative. Hmmm.
Don't know if I would want to be far from the toilet if I were to chow down on it....
Wonder if it could be cooked up like collards and turnip greens...

Looks like a great plant. The site says to fall sow them. Makes me wonder if they need the cold to get a kick start?
