Moruga seeds purchased from Puckerbutt are starting to emerge from the soil.
 
They all look like this:

Except for this one:

Strange, right? Anyone know what this plant is? It is growing super fast.
 
 
 
Looks like some sort of grass. Did you pop seeds in the soil or did you germ in a paper towel hen once hooks formed, then into soil?

I put these particular seeds directly into the soil.
 
Ok then. I would say your seed or seeds haven't popped in that container yet. Most likely a random weed seed (not canna) in that potting soil.

That is pretty wild! Thanks for the help.

I think you might be right. I just positioned this thing next to a wire, and it's already trying to wrap itself around it.

There's a wild bean that grows around here that I've been encouraging to grow in the peppers.  I'm not certain yet, but I think the vines help support the pepper limbs.
 
     I'm with Sawyer and WaffleBum. It looks like an etiolated hairy vetch seedling (or some other kind of wild legume). Had the plant gotten any supplemental light before you noticed it? If not, lack of light might be causing it to stretch out and look leggy.
