The sense of a worthless item derives from the opposition to cereal plants; now “Wicke” is rather praised as an ornamental plant.\nThe idiom “in die Wicken gehen”, not to be tracked further than the nineteenth century and still rather rare, is less common with this noun than with Binsen and derives either from that old antithesis or from the idea of hunted game being lost when it has alighted in the plants.
