# I have these weeds growing like crazy. No matter how much i pluck…

_Posted by Spiderman on 2026-06-08_

I have these weeds growing like crazy. No matter how much i pluck them they come back 2x the amount than before. Its gotten to the point where they are growing all over the yard even after mowing them. I was thinking about a weed killer but i dont want it to hurt my other plants and effect my edible plants too. I dont even know what kind of weeds these are. Please help

I am fighting these guys all over my yard too. I have a stand up weed puller so I can grab it and the root. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Maybe try Captain Jacks Lawnweed brew? It’s a selective herbicide, and works really well!
