Managed a 1/2 hour blowing a hooley so there was not too much worth keeping at all. All at 1:1 mag.

Your "weed" is the opening seed pod of a Fringed Willowherb (Epilobium ciliatum) plant.

Thanks, I have plenty of these in the garden, to be fair I still can't tell the difference weed and flower, ever since I was informed a weed is just a flower growing in the wrong place :lol: just need more variety to attract different things

Exactly! And this plant is very prolific, especially where you may not want it. The seeds parachute quite a distance.
