    Hi Guys.

    We had a bit of a heatwave a few weeks ago and this bad boy popped up out of nowhere. It's grown very quickly as you can see in the photos. The first one was taken in the middle of July, and the last 2 were taken today, around 3 weeks later, where it's grown 2-3 feet! I did help it along the way a little water & plant food while I was feeding my tomatoes. The plant is very sticky, and smells like grapefruit. Any ideas what it is?

    Thanks in advance :)
