Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a
weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the
ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Yes. It's an adjunct to Sod's Law.

However, it is best to unserstand Sod's Law before relying on it. It reads:

"If a thing can go wrong, it will go wrong, usually at the most awkward
time, except when you attempt to test the rule."

Like most generalities, there are certain exceptions to the rule.
Like Hairy bitter-cress, (Cardamine hirsuta). That comes out pretty
easily and I can't understand why it hasn't taken over the world! I've
devoted my life to pulling that up!

Clause 1(a) - If a thing cannot possibly go wrong, it will anyway.
