Weed in Florida

Can anyone tell me what this is and is it safe for torts to eat?

That actually looks like radish leaves. Could be wild mustard greens though. Both are edible. Hopefully we both can have that confirmed soon!

Thanks. It's started growing in my enclosure. I seeded it with some tort seed. But this came up much later. Not sure if it was in the seed or blew in

It looks just like this and this is in a mix of grazing tortoise mix, among other individual seeds.

 

[Alaskamike]

I think you're right

Could be turnip too. They look similar. And it is included in most mediterranean seed mixtures.

I think it is Asiatic hawksbeard or false hawks beard

Is that from Tortoise Supply?
I've got them too.
Radish or turnip. I can't tell them apart, however, they'll grow a huge edible root if they continue to grow.
Good stuff.
Snap off a part of that root and see if it smells, tastes like horse radish.

That is defiantly in the tort supply mix. I got them too. My torts eat it up.
