Probably, the flower type of goldenrod (compact) is an indicator that it is insect pollinated (know latter is correct). At least the wind pollinated ragweed plant (causes hayfever - and as you suggest blooms at the same time as goldenrod), is overall quite open (viz. a lot of flower exposed to the wind).

A few pictures of garden #2.
Best current part of front garden:
New England asters (Including Alma Pötschke), Helenium, Phlox (Little Laura), the last of the Echinacea and Agastache (second bloom).
