Seriously, what is this weed? Bermuda grass, just moved in about 3 weeks ago, put down Scott's turf builder with crabgrass preventer. Lawn looks good except for some dead patches I'm working on, but I noticed these little tree looking things popping up everywhere. Looks like I'm the only one I can see with these things.

I had the same question with this big daddy weed about 2 1/2 feet tall.

It looks like Queen Anne's Lace, I have them in the yard, they've a deep taproot. If you mow them the uprights multiply, if you pull them when the ground is hard/fry, they snap off & return with multiple uprights. Pull them now while the ground is soaked. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=queen+anne's+lace+immature&atb=v77-3_u&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images

Looks like thistle

Watch out for the thorns on the thistle they can go through the side of hiking boots. It will also drop a ton of seed. Chop it down before it drops them.

Thanks all. Got me some broad leaf ortho weed b gon and going to spray the whole lawn. Definitely does look like ragweed, just have no idea where the hell it all came from, and the funny thing is doesn't look like any of my neighbors lawns has it at all.
 
Put down any straw lately? My guess is seed came in straw, new grass seed you put out or birds brought to your yard.
 
Just bought the home and it was laid sod from about August of 17. They did lay out some straw where the clay was on the side of the house but this crap just popped up all over my lawn. Funny thing is there was no sign of it until I put the Scott's down, although I'm sure that's just coincidence

I spread some topsoil one year. Like a truckload, then reseeded. Had that stuff popup.

If the Ortho doesn't take care of it, I believe this will...

 
What movie is this? I've heard the quote 100k time but I've never seen the movie.

Dear Lord...next thing you know, you'll be wanting to know what movie made Dueling Banjos an icon!

Apocalypse Now.

And Deliverance, for Dueling Banjos...
 
Ive never watched either. I have seen the "squeal like a pig!" part of deliverance as odd as that seems without watching the rest of the movie.
Are you even an AMERICAN male?

You own it to yourself to watch both.
 
Improssible!

Next you'll be trying to tell us you've never seen Blazing Saddles.

No blazing saddles is one of my favorite movies of all time. My parents liked comedy's but left the "scary" movies out of their viewing patterns. So I never really watched much and didn't get cable tv until the 9th grade and hbo at my house would have taken hitting the lottery.
