The first plowing buries the grass and weeds and kills them. The seed from these buried grasses will sprout up shortly; that's where the second disking comes in, along with herbiside. I've never used a harrow to clean the plowed ground. Chris, I looked up pics of pigweed and I don't think this is the same as birdseye; might be in the same family, leaf looks very simular however the seed pod doesn't.
