      It is quite tall doesnt have any spore type bulbs on it or anything just looks like a leafy plant we thought it may be a chilli plant but it seems to be growing at a fast pace and quite thick which makes me think it is a weed rather than anything else should it just be pulled normally and not disposed of in the compost heap?

      Not sure of the identity of the plant as yet, Joolz, but Ziggy usually hits the mark when it comes to identifying plants.:D Anyway, welcome to Gardeners Corner:D:thumbsup:

        Definately not a Chilli.

        If you do pull it up, wear gloves just to be on the safe side.:dbgrtmb:
