Hello, I am cleaning out a ton of weeds and vines from my garden this weekend. Everything seems to be a vine that I pretty sure isn’t edible and this weed which appears to be some sort of thistle, which I’m pretty sure is. Ok to feed?

The close up weed in the first pic is sow thistle. Its good tortoise food. The other pics are a hodge podge mix.

Thank you there appear to be a majority of only 2 plants total. The sow thistle (thanks again) and some invasive vine i plan on just throwing away. It’s quite a mess.

And the thing thing is edible? Leaves, roots, stems? What about the fuzzy bits?
