So I guess this is year 6! Hard to believe. Still taming 2.5 acres of countryside after a life lived in the city.

I was hoping for a PlantID on this, I found it growing in last year's pumpkin patch and it looks like some kind of #cereal! Only place on the property I've seen this...

Any bird feeder nearby? Many seeds drop and grow....

No, but you've got me thinking - I wonder was it some chicken feed that went astray? I think they've had treat mixes that had wheat in them 🤔 @patburke58

In any case, Tara, if it were in my garden, I'd leave it there for. Surely some creature will enjoy eating it!

Yeah that end is all wild at the moment and I think it's staying that way for a while at least! @patburke58

Yep I have some growing under my bird feeder. Got a free sunflower too last year! (I say free, they clean me out of bags of bird food...)
