I have had this trouble for a while but I really can't stand it anymore, and was wondering if anyone else has this issue.. When pulling weeds, I can't seem to actually select the weed until I have first pulled all surrounding flowers from the ground first. Then and only then can I take the weed.
I am using iPad.

I have had the problem of picking a certain flower, before I could get it I had to first pick the ones around it. Seems to be real sensitive in pin pointing the exact one you want.

OMG this one REALLY annoys me

I really hope they fix this in the next update. It is SO frustrating.

One thing that helps sometimes is to zoom out until you can see individual plants, just beforethe plants disappear in the zoom. Of course, this makes the click area smaller than fat human fingers, so it doesn't work always.

I will try that! I use a stylus.
