Hi! I was wondering if any of you guys could help me out? I've been growing chilli peppers from seeds. However, one of the pots I planted a seed in seems to have sprouted something thats not a chilli pepper! I guess the seed could have been a rogue one in the packet or been in the soil from the start...anyhow, I'm now intrigued as to what the heck the plant is so was hoping you guys could help! The largest leaves are about 15cm long at present and 5 cm across at their widest. The edges of the leaves are sort of crinkled with spines/thick hairs at the edge. The surface of the leaves are also coered in thes spines/hairs although they are of a finer variety then the ones at the edge! I hope you can make sense of the pictures! Am i harbouring a weed?!
Cardoon or Artichoke perhaps? http://www.veggiegardeningtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/Globe-Artichoke-Seedling.jpg
