golden rod cordage?
Newindian:
When a friend found out I was making natural fiber strings, he recommended I look into golden rod the stuff is common here, so far I haven't found much on the internet. Any help is appreciated .
Olanigw (Pekane):
I've never been able to.
stickbender:
It is quite common down here in Fl. Never knew it had any fibers worthwhile.
I know that Eddison, had made a synthetic rubber out of the sap, but it fizzled out as being viable, as the war was over by then.

Mature goldenrod stems make good survival arrows, similar to horseweed. I've never heard of it used for cordage.
Newindian:
Looks like I'll be the first to take a look at it
