What is this Weed?

[Gebo]

This is coming up all over the place. Can pull it up easy as it has small root structure.

I don't know, but my weedeater or eXmark wouldn't care, either. Down with it!

 

[Gebo]

Problem is it is mixed in with some good stuff

Can't weed eat or mow.

I looked up common weeds of Virginia and got a hit on:

"American Burnweed"

Not super sure but check it out

 

[Gebo]

Could be...I've done a lot of searching and didn't find what you did. Thanks!

I've sent pics to "DoMyOwn.com" and they should know.

I think I see some spikes on a few leaf tips. My guess is Palmer amaranth.

 

[John_K]

Get a lot of them around my house. As you say they pop right out of the ground.

Looks like burnweed.

Extracted oil can be used as a treatment for hemorrhoids (if you have that issue). It has also been used a treatment for gonorrhea and can be eaten raw in salad.

Erigeron canadensis (synonym Conyza canadensis) is an annual plant native throughout most of North America and Central America. It is also widely naturalized in Eurasia and Australia. Common names include horseweed, Canadian horseweed, Canadian fleabane, coltstail, marestail, and butterweed.

I can't quite tell from the picture(good pic btw) but it loiks similar to peppermint.

Does is smell like mint?

 

[Gebo]

Nope

 

[SatinSilver]

At least they come out easy and don't have thorns on them. You can send a pm to doitmyself as he might know the answer. He's helped me out in the past.

That looks like the peppermint that we have in our garden but to be sure just smell it!

 

[gregk24]

I have a couple of these also, not sure what they are though.

 

[JLawrence08648]

Mint has a square stem. If the stem is round, it's not in the mint family.

I think Pike51 might have nailed it ....this is the relatively young stage: https://weedid.cals.vt.edu/weedimg/273
https://weedid.cals.vt.edu/clickidimg?cid=2&slideShowImgIdList=2080%2C2081%2C2082%2C2083%2C2084%2C2085%2C2086%2C2087%2C2088

For the OP's state, this is a pretty good dichotomous key below, but like all of them, you sometimes have to have someone teach you the difference between one choice and the next.

EDIT: BIG OOPS - Looks like ARCOgraphite wins the prize.

 

[Gebo]

Pike51 did nail it. Perfect match.

Thanks!
