Can you I.D this weed for me please

[noviceveggrower]

hi.
Am doing this on my phone and as you can tell am having problems
I have spotted a load of these seedling coming up and don't know what they are. They are everywhere at the moment and I just keep hoeing them up.

Question please tell me I am hoeing a weed up but what are they and is hoeing the best way to keep on top of them.
Thanks

Oh and could a MOD please spin my photos. Phone won't let me Thanks

Pretty sure they're tree seedlings - ash or sycamore maybe?

RE the photos, they'll look the same whichever way up they are.
If you either crop them, or take them horizontally, it should work! Can't speak from experience as I don't use a phone

I would say ash seedlings, we have plenty round here and they are just appearing now. Hoeing should sort them out!

I would say sycamore but only because they seem to grow easier than the seeds off my ash. Did you have them last year as it was a bumper year (forget the word) for a lot of sycamore.

Ash or sycamore.
We have a sycamore tree which drops them into our gravel path.

Wish we could hoe them up!

I have to go round an pick them out individually

Horizontal howling on a sunny day will either chop them, or they will dry out in the sun.

The good thing is that they're not going to self seed for a good few years!

Erm, I must try that

Sorry Nicos but your predictive text made me laugh

Hi, Thanks for the advice. I do have a tree on my plot, a sycamore, so must of come from that. Didn't have seedlings at all last year so surprised to get them this year.

if you have used horse manure it may have come from there i did and now i have them popping up in places

and does anybody else howl when they hoe is it to surprise the weeds
