Hello!

I reside in Southern Alberta, Canada and after seeding all my vegetables we had a wind storm which mixed all the seeds up. These are two seedlings that I can't seem to identify and I'm reluctant to pull them out until I know it's not something I planted.

Unfortunately, first one is a weed, lambsquarters.

@archoo16 I'm just glad to know I can pull them without kicking myself for it later. Thank you for the input, much appreciated!

LizzieBetty - it will give you lovely yellow flowers in the dead of winter which smell wonderful. The berries will ripen to purple/blue with a bloom to them.

No need to waste it. Stick it in a mixed salad ;-)

What did you sow? That might help us id the second one.

I planted strawberries, carrots, bell peppers, snap peas, corn, watermelon, and sativa. The last two were added last year but never sprouted.

Stevia is what I meant! The sweetener.
