Weed; cut short (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dock

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'weed' is the first definition.
(type of weed)

'cut short' is the second definition.
(as in docking a dog's tail)

(Other definitions for dock that I've seen before include "Where one might repair cutter" , "Harbour" , "Use this for nettle stings" , "Antidote to nettle stings" , "weed bit of station > where Richard Roe stood" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
