A weed by definition is an unintended plant!

So if one has a nice rose garden with a few unwanted dandelions growing. The dandelions are weeds. But if one has a nice big dandelion garden (people eat the leafs) then dandelions aren’t weeds.

The only “biological” basis to call something a weed, I guess, would be if a plant is very invasive. Like dandelions, buttercup and blackberries.

One could call cannabis a weed because it grows well in such varying conditions, but to me it will never be a weed.
harris7 Reviewed by harris7 on . Marijuana is just basically a weed right? I read that it often grows wild in wastelands and spreads pretty easily. i ask because we planted some seeds in this old field next door and they are just sprouting up. So as long as i kinda water them wont they pretty much do ok? im not looking for any real good buds from them or anything i was just curious what would happen. Im sorry if i posted this in the wrong place... Rating: 5
