What weed is this??

[silver_yummies]

Planted some sort of LabLab mix and I think I just grew weeds.

pigweed

Get rid of it! I tried to do LabLab and Soybean mix this year and that was my result as well. I went to war on it in July and did a complete burn down. No way I am letting that crap go to seed. I am wondering if the cold wet spring brought the pigweed? Never had to deal with it before...

Still time to get cereal grains in the ground and salvage the plot.

Not sure if those those seeds are viable yet but they soon will be. You could be fighting that for a while. It would be nice to cut and bale it to get those seeds off the plot. Then let the bales heat up/compost to kill all those seeds.

Yep

Dang. Thanks all for the help and advice.

Did it come with the seeds you bought for planting?

I'd mow that field now and come back and burn it in a week or so. Maybe fry the seed then plant rye.

If you do, clean the mower off in the field so your not dragging seed around everywhere else.

Yep,mow now and then spray with interline or something other than gly.Deer will eat it better than about anything when little.I bet you worked your ground and it was in the seed bank.
