    I planted some cardamom seeds then got really excited when one started shooting up. However after looking on google images i can see that it doesn't look like a cardamom plant. any ideas what it is?

    Welcome to Gardeners Corner:sign0016:

    Afraid its a Fat Hen Plant. You can eat the leaves as spinage though.
