I happen to not like wild carrot as a food, and it grows so rampantly in my garden that I cannot help but to have a negative relationship with it. I do enjoy the smell it creates when I weedwhack it, though. As far as Nettles in a barrel, -- awesome! Nettles like a lot of nitrogen, might be a good place to put your pee! Seriously. Have you ever eaten Camassia bulbs? Hemlock in my experience has a very unpleasant smell, not very carroty.

Can anyone describe the aromatic difference? Really I need to go outside, find out for myself and report back...

(cough cough) bllaeeeaaadh!! I've been looking at them for years and only recently became comfortable with telling the difference. I'd like to be able to say, "look at such and such part of the plan" but you know when you've been looking at shit and eating it and such... you can just tell the difference. I mean, it's like I see baby wild carrot all the fucking time now at my place, so if I saw poison hemlock I'd be like... Hm, that plant looks kinda like wild carrot, but it's not.
