Unidentified Weed
Filed under: Ask Grant, Herbicide
I have planted Eagle Seed Large Lad beans the last three years. This year a weed came up in my beans that I have never seen. It is 8-10 feet tall with a very large leaf (pie plate) on a cane like stalk. Any idea what this massive weed might be? I really enjoy your videos. They parallel everything on my plots in Cumberland County, Tennessee. Mike
Mike,
Did the weed survive spraying the Eagle Seed Beans with glyphosate? If so, it may be pigweed. If you didn’t spray the crop, it might be giant ragweed, which has a large leaf. You might search online for an image of these weeds or ask a local extension agent.
Both of these weeds exist in your area (and mine).
Growing Deer together,
Grant
