I think I've started a beginner's quest to survey my local surroundings.
After a few false starts, I stumbled acrosss some weeds which, it dawned on me, look like some sort of lactuca (serriola?). It produces white sap when bent. Apologies once again for the photo quality.
Help with an ID much appreciated! Also, a few questions if anyone can help:
1. Serriola and virosa - both are literally common garden weeds? I've probably pulled many out, not knowing what they are, right?
2. Are either particularly good/useful?
3. Best method to explore? (Not much of a smoker. I've read that the tea is pretty shocking, but is it worth it?).
