| If you cut the yellow flower, with the cut flowerhead go to seed? |

What happens is that the plant stops sending food/energy to THAT FLOWER, and it goes to the rest of the plant... meaning the plant - and root - get bigger, strongr, and deeper. (Same concept behind pinching off early blooms on veggie plants!) Don't pick it or cut it - you need a weed fork to pop it out of your yard forever! |
No, creating a target-rich environment is going to a flea market wearing a black suit and shades while shouting "INS! NOBODY MOVE!" |
