  1. The most harmful Herbs in a farm are Thistle, Geosadán, Dock Leaf, Crowfoot, Spanc, Squitchgrass and Puiseac weed. The Dock leaf, thistles, Crowfoot, Puiseac weed, Spanc and Squitchgrass are harmful because they spread rapidly and they also impoverish the land. The Dock leaf, thistle and geosadán grow in good land. The Spanc, Squitch grass and Puiseac weed grow in poor land.
