Mustard For Identification please.

Would I be correct to say Black Mustard (Brassica nigra)?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Worthy, yes Charlock does look very similar, will have to look a little more into this one as I was going to produce a mustard from the seed.

Our Hon Sec. teaches Science. He says Mustard contains a chemical that is harmful to plant life.
I have always grown Fodder Radish for Green Manure.
There are other kinds.
