Default Planting RR corn?

There is a small section of my field that I want to plant with the RR corn, I have the seed. There are already alot of weeds (pigweed mostly, and some grasses) that have germinated in the last few weeks. Should I disk it and plant immediately? Or should I disk it and wait a week or two to give the dormant seeds to start germinating, then plant the corn, and then spray roundup on any weeds that have emerged? I have a 10' boom sprayer and a 2 row planter, so planting/spraying is not a problem.

I'm basically asking if I should give the weeds a head start before roundup, or start with a clean disked ground and spray when the corn/weeds are a few inches high.
