My first reaction is that it's Ragwort - but I can't be sure.

Its Rape/Mustard i beleive :)

Yes, could be, Jacque. Good thinking! :-)

:)

I agree with Jacque

Oil seed rape, a self seeder from adjacent fields.

Yes....agree it is oil seed rape......gets everywhere!!!!

Unfortunately!

Yup !!!!

Sory about the delay in getting back to you all. Thanks for the prompt and

comprehensive response. I've been looking at pics on the internet of rapeseed,

the riverbank version is only knee high so, does the farmed version get a lot of

`fertiliser' to grow so tall?

Hi Charlieboy yes the field crop is fed massive doses of artificial fertiliser. I would never buy raped seed oil!

Thanks Moon grower
Not a gardening question, what's a good cooking, salad oil (other than olive) to use?

Personally I use organic sunflower oil when I'm not using olive oil.

Thanks Moon grower. At the pub on a Sunday lunch us single old blokes spend more time talking food and recipes than - sport!

Good the hear it!
