What are they ?

dragonsfire · May 21, 2017

Any idea what these are? I threw something out from the kitchen last year but dont know what, growing well so if its a squash Il replant it.

Gorizza · May 21, 2017

Looks like Mint. Mentha piperita?
Did you have anything growing there last year?

dragonsfire · May 21, 2017

I have peppermint but that's it besides caraway that you see in the corner. Someone else said Mint too but peppermint is the only thing I grew from that family.

Yea it looks like mint too me? Or a badass landrace indica maybe?

dragonsfire · May 21, 2017

I just went outside and tried it, rubbed it in my hand and no hint of mint, ate a leaf and no specific taste, just chlorofil.

landrace indica, is that not cannabis?

Jubnat · May 21, 2017

Yeah, looks like mint, but the color is kind of light.

Definitely not a squash, or other vegetable

lol, well I dont know how they would be their since its just kitchen stuff. Very neutral taste, wouldn't normally stick a plant in my mouth that I have no idea what it is

No match to Hyssop from the pictures I searched.

Northern Bugleweed is the closest match but the leaves are longer.

it might be some kind of sage. e.g. pineapple sage.

dragonsfire · May 21, 2017

No taste, got regular sage in a pot,

hogleg · May 21, 2017

Are all the leaves a single petal? Or are some of the lower or new leaves starting to fork into 3's or 5's?

hogleg · May 21, 2017

BTW, I would stop eating it til we know what it is, lol.

Shorerider ate some unidentified berries the other day and his legs went numb for three hours. :rofl:
