What weeds dont your tortoises enjoy
There are lots of edible weeds out there but it does not mean that your tortoise will eat them. Some smell horrible.
Mine dont really like jack by the hedge because of its strong smell Not keen on red clover I will add to this list later.

Fro will eat anything, including fingers, and Lilly won't touch any type of flower but would do anything for opuntia cacti

Mine aren't too keen on plaintain but I force them to eat it (well as much as you can force a tort to eat anything) as I think it's good for them and is plentiful in my local cemetery.
