I cant' see a ton of hawksbeard in that photo, but I do see a lot of rye and vetch. Did you kill off that plot completely when you put this crop in?

That's what I suspected. You've got those two weeds because that's all that could survive after the burndown applications. I call them response plants.There is no hawksbeard in that picture, it’s mainly in the lower elevation portion of that plot. Burned down twice with gly last year. Everything dead except the hawksbeard.

This is just the goofy regen guy's perspective, but... I wouldn't spray them or work them up. I'd wait until late in the season and just spread more rye and vetch in there, and mow it as low to the ground as you can. They got the upper hand because nothing else could grow. As you heal back from the gly applications and rebuild your soil ecosystem, those will get muscled out by healthier plants as soil function returns. It's a leap of faith, but trust your soil will heal and evolve, and when it does, the plants it supports will also evolve.
What happened?
Plenty of time for November.Broke my hand during command PT. Should be good as new in 6 weeks.

Do you wear gloves when touching your cameras? It is rare they bother mine since doing that. Trees look amazing. Good luck with that hand. Broke mine in HS and does quite well with weather predictions. Good luck on your season.
