Read more about identifying this plant here: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/WEEDS/lambsquarters.html. The fourth is likely horseweed or hairy fleabane; they look similar. Read more about identifying them/telling them apart here: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/WEEDS/horseweed.html and here: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/WEEDS/hairy_fleabane.html. I've read varying assessments as to whether either is safe. My tortoise won't eat horseweed but I pull it out whenever I see it so that it doesn't reseed. I think the third and fifth might be the same plant, the only difference is one has flowered? I knew the name of this weed last week, lol. If you post again next week, I might have remembered.
