Spring Cudweed
CUDWEED. It's everywhere and is one of the first to appear in disturbed soil. Mowing distributes this annual as, like it's cousin the dandelion, its seeds have a soft plume that floats in the wind distributing this weed widely.
Mowing down the seed stalks prior to full bloom helps, but, like all annual weeds, pre-emergent herbicide applications are the best way to mitigate Cudweed. Heller's, Shiny, and Wandering are several varieties of Gamochaeta. Post-emergent mitigation use Metsulfuron.
