Creeping Charlie (Glechoma hederacea),( aka creeping jenny, and ground ivy) is by far the worst weed I have ever encountered. Once it invades a lawn or garden it quickly takes over and it is hard to get rid of. During the times when the ground is wet after a rainfall Creeping Charlie emits a pungent odor that it is like that close to that of skunk. It can be pushed back with raking, hoeing, weeding, and herbicides. Still it lurks in outlining boarders, waiting to creep back into the yard yet once again to choke out any living thing in its path.

Morning glory is worst to get rid of. We got it, and tried everything, including digging out everything else, then covering that area of the garden with black plastic for an entire summer.
There's also a flat growing one with little yellow flowers and little spike-ball seed pods. If they get dry and hard, they'll puncture anything, and spread the plant if they sprout. I pull it out anywhere I see it.

Hedera helix, the disgusting, invasive English Ivy.
But there are so many.
Also, put 'goatheads' on the list. Those bicycle tire puncturing vines. rrRRRrrr...

Nutgrass is the scourge of the earth and can be the farmer's worst enemy. After that, dandelions!
