A weed is a plant that is not only in the wrong place, but intends to stay. — Sara Stein.
Weed tending a couple of weeks ago, removing a lot of dooryard docks and spear thistles. When having the proper gloves it is quite easy to get rid of the thistles, just pulling them straight up.
And note, weed as in Norwegian “ugress”, not weed as in weed meaning cannabis 🙂
