Hi. Out of this finch mix patch can you identify what seeds they are individually. Eg. What is the broad leafed seedings etc.

That's the little black seeds isn't it. I might be better off weeding them out to let the millet take over then. Any idea what the other smaller leafed seedlings are?

If you want good seeding grasses, take out all those canola seeds as they'll choke out all the other grasses
