Re: Help identifying more weeds!
That's why plant id'ing is hard from photos, lol.
Some thistles also have that dandelion look & latex - out here we call 'em sow thistle, but even the young plants have prickly leaf margins. I can't really tell if the leaves are prickly in the photo. The sow thistle smells pretty rank, too - bitter & almost chemical-ly, and the odor will linger on hands or gloves. I also don't think I've seen any w/red stems - at least not in my back yard.
