I think it's Corydalis

Looking at images on google I think you are right, never heard of it before.

Thank you mumofstig
Happy Gardening.

Found this while clearing out carrot pots yesterday! (Beat the blasted fly for once this year), and thought at first it could be Marestail, but now I'm not too sure.

The head is about half an inch across, and from top to tip of the root, it is about 5 inches. The stem is pretty wiry, and the greenery is also quite hard as well!

Any ideas anyone please, it's the only sighting I have on 'The Patch'.

Dock, in seed, I'd say.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I wonder if it is Mums, but it seems to have come from a seed, because there is no sign of any rhizome on the root!

Luckily, it is the only one I've seen since we took on the plots, and I wonder if it could be a stray even...

Dobtless I'll be peering at every weed we pull from now on, but as it was growing in a 10" pot, and came out very quickly, I'll just be vigilant!

(Apols for the awful pic BTW, if we need to re-do it, I'll get onto Truprint pronto...)!

I think that's a yew seedling Growster.  I get them on the plot as we have yews planted on the boundary and the birdies leave the seeds as little pressies  :)

Hey, News - that sounds about right, although I've never actually had the (dis)pleasure of seeing Horsetail, we have a lot of yew round here and the wiry stem does remind me of a a young yew branch!

I'll be extra-vigilant when we get down there again - many thanks!

this looks like Mugwort to me - is it quite aromatic when crushed? Common weed esp of disturbed ground

Any idea what these are?

The first picture, all I have seen is the root and the 'canes' as it has all been strimmed down. But its also infested with bind and couch.

Second picture, these are quite common on the plot, although most of it is covered with a sheet at the moment.

Third picture, I have no idea what this is?

First one looks rather like my old raspberry roots that I've just dug out! They were also infested with bindweed and couch.

Second I think is creeping buttercup.

Third - pass.
