Crawling through the jungle

I have rarely seen such luxuriant weed growth in any gardening season, and I have been doing this for 40 years.  It was too wet to do much except pull big weeds last night and I was amazed at how healthy and fecund they were.   Usually by the middle of August, heat and drought has slowed the pests and many are throwing out seed heads.  Lately, the red root pigweed and galinsoga have gotten gigantic with nary a seedhead in sight.  With more rain predicted, it's looking like a long term problem for the rest of the season.  As always, the pests seem to outcompete the crops, kind of like The Donald among the republican candidates.  I wonder what Roundup would do to his hair.
