I just started taking pictures of the various insects and weeds in my garden, and I'd love to start learning their names and what they are. Anyone know what this one is?
Any idea what this weed is?

i'm not exactly sure but it looks a lot like:

i got there via putting in white flowers and searching on:
my first intuition was that it was a brassica and i wasn't wrong.
it is also edible! if that is the right plant.
"Hairy bittercress (Cardamine hirsuta) leafs out in a basal rosette, and like other members of the mustard family (Brassicaceae), its tender greens are edible. Don't be fooled by the common name—its flavor is mild and peppery, not bitter."

That's definitely it. It looks like that when it get bigger. I had no idea it was edible! Maybe I'll try it one time.
