No.
The picture at the top of the thread has thick succulent, rubber-like leaves, where pigweeds of all kinds, prostrate, red-root, palmer amaranth, tall waterhemp, have thin leaves. Also darker green and prominent veins.
Oh and purslane leaves also have a very short, almost non-existent petiole. Pigweed leaves have longer petioles.
May be some confusion in names. Apparently purslane is called Pig Weed in some regions.
looks real similar to what gets called pigweed here by everyone |
pigweed not so bad after all
