Are weed stems hollow?

[Edit]
First of all, lets define a "Weed". A Weed is ANY plant that is in an undesirable location, so a Rose in the middle of your lawn could be a weed, or grass in your Rose Garden could be a weed. You probably picked a Dandelion and noticed that the stem was hollow. Dandelion & Golden Rod are 2 examples of plants with hollow stems. These are exceptions, not typical.

Some common lawn & garden weeds are; Dandelion, Chicory, Clover, Oxalis (which looks like Clover & tastes like sour apples), Plantain (which looks like a cross between Dandelion & Chicory), Mouse-Eared Chickweed, Fennel & Violets. I'm using W. PA as an example.

Hope this helps,
