Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 You can see how many are wild edibles, have been cultivated here and other places as vegetables, many have medicinal uses. Many commonly grow in every yard not dosed with weed poisons regularly. It's quite crazy. Most yard grasses go to seed at 11 " and the ordinance says it has to be cut by 9 " . Two more inches it would stop growing. Support your local lawn mower and gas companies. Minnesota Noxious Weed Law 1505.0730 PROHIBITED NOXIOUS WEEDS. Subpart 1. State prohibited noxious weed list.
