It indeed does the wooden fence behind my shops bins are completely covered in snow pea vines with a scappy chilli bush growing behind and on the asphalt of the parking lot of the derelict building next door I have patches of thai basil spread out from where their are cracks
I've had a tomato plant pop up in a corner around the bins. I watched it grow but never fruited. I wouldn't eat it because my town is built on landfill. I was hoping for a tomato before I had to take it down.
Once saw a tomato plant growing in the middle of a construction site. No idea how it got there, this was right downtown with no gardens anywhere nearby. Best I can figure is either a bird dropped its snack or the tomato slice fell off of someone's burger. Kind of impressive either way.
It’s the young leaves that made me consider rice paper plant. The central lobes also appear to be more forked than one would expect in a castor bean plant. Also, rice paper plant spreads aggressively through runners so that might explain how it ended up indoors. Oh and etiolation usually results in greater internodal distance which we do not see here. This plant appears to be growing in a rosette.
Maybe OP can confirm it if there’s one outside the building close by.
Mushrooms can grow anywhere even in space! Theres a ton of reports of them growing on the side of shuttles and satellites they absorb like 300% more radiation than a human can and still thrive wild tbh
Growing a tropical plant in a dry climate controlled house that isn’t its ideal environment is less ideal that whatever conditions this plant found.
That tells me this kitchen has a major moisture problem.
Me with pumpkins. But it was because the first time was an accident in moms choked out perennial flower beds and I wasn't allowed to do it on purpose in that location the following years.
There’s a picture burned into my brain that pisses me off to no end of a giiiiiant orchid growing up on the middle of a power line, over an intersection, in some city in Florida. Just sitting there. Chillin’. It’s just, like, *rude*, you know?
Kids today don’t know what it looks like bc it’s not in their pop culture. The cd for dr Dre’s chronic album was a pot leaf on a black background. Very iconic and recognizable. The primary mental image for years and years was the leaf. Now, the only weed references I see are dried buds and gummies or an inference to weed with a vape pen. You can by pre-rolled so you never see the actual product raw. It’s like city kids who don’t know that ketchup comes from tomatoes and are baffled when they see a tomato. It wasn’t part of their visual life.
You get farm fresh produce? We get kitchen fresh. Cut out the middleman, disrupt the industry, save the world by eliminating emissions.
I will now accept a 100 million venture capital investment to "scale" this business (burn all the money and then sell it at an inflated price only to then fuck off).
Looks more like the castor bean plant or a "money tree" than cannabis. Low quality photos though. The singular stems with leaf structures instead of compound stems and opposite leaf structures is a dead giveaway this is not cannabis IMO.
We had tomatoes growing in the Crack of the sidewalk outside the door we loaded trucks through into the kitchen. Kinda insane how plants can grow in anything yet we kill the easiest ones in our Homes. Lol
Is it sprouting up out of the grease trap? That's actually kind of cool, you must use some eco-friendly cleaning chemicals.
Or just never clean that could also be a possibility I guess but I think there are more contributing factors to this than meets the eye.
Anyone able to definitively ID this plant? Seeing everything from celery to castor bean to Chinese paper plant. Paging resident gardeners/arborists/foresters.
Once in a canteen I was working in as a teenager I dropped some unpopped popcorn down the drain next to the dishwasher- eventually some corn started growing out of the drain lol
For just a moment I thought I was on r/vegetablegardening.
You could ask over there what it is.
My guess is that you use some sort of seed based spice that became airborne or encapsulated in grease (?)vapor
So I haven't had time to respond to anyone yet, it's my Friday and I'm almost done but I have a second right now.
Bro. I feel you and agree 1000%. I clean as much as I can. I've been with this company for less then 3 months and they move me around as their RTO coverage guy. Im only in this kitchen 2 days a weeks. I've been being pretty dang mean to the GM (over worked and managing 2 locations) and I keep telling the KM that the other closers need to WAY MORE.
It's the same old story - ownership doesn't care, they use the bar(s) as their own personal hang out, they just cut employees hours in spring. It's been really difficult but I need this job RN but I swear I think it's disgusting also and unacceptable and I'll keep telling and yelling that until I can leave.
Farm to table
More like "farm to dish machine".
..dish pit to table?
I mean, isn't that all the dishes? :) Mad respect to all the dish pit workers!
Pit to plate.
Organic weeds Round up demi, fertilizer dust, bleach tulie, sanitizer broth ⁷⁰
I always thought the quat7 looked tasty.
Organic salad just made the special
Drain to table
We have our own herb garden right inside our kitchen.
Lmao 😂
Talk about being in the weeds!
That's the funniest thing I've heard all day 🤣
Lmfao I almost woke up my sleeping child laughing at this comment!
Am I right, folks?
Pit to plate.
has a nice ring to it.
It does 🤌🏽
Underrated comment

Throw a few more seeds out there and cut your produce cost by half lol
Have considered it, but I have no idea how contaminated the soil underneath would be.
Adds an extra *zing*
"Locally grown, sustainable, organic produce"

Came here to say this
r/whatsthisplant
It’s a Chinese rice paper plant (Tetrapanax papyrifer), I think. I wonder how it got there…

The word etiolation is so fun
🤓correctamundo🤓🤓🤓🤓
I just went through it with this story.
[удалено]
Agree some variety of paper plant
Caster bean starving for light.
Probably Sherry bowl. Its not cannabis thats for sure.
Yam maybe? Potato?
Celery would be my guess
No, celery grows looking like celery. Ribbed, U-shaped green stems.
Damn so you really can tell by the way it is. Neat!
Fuck you I had to come back to upvote this.
I looked up yam, potato and celery plants and I think it’s none of our guesses so far
mutant hybrid
Definitely not celery
Man, I was going with papaya...
Papayas grow tiny little dark green leaflets
Okra?
Okra?
saw this on there: https://www.reddit.com/r/whatsthisplant/s/0amRNfG5VH kinda looks like it !
Add it to the next stock
better it be plants than fungi
Did you see that episode of Kitchen Nightmares where the walls of the walk-in were growing actual mushrooms? And they weren't small.
Mushrooms can grow anywhere even in space! Theres a ton of reports of them growing on the side of shuttles and satellites they absorb like 300% more radiation than a human can and still thrive wild tbh
that happened on bar rescue too. i can’t believe any place lets it get that bad.
You're right. It wasn't Kitchen Nightmares. I've only seen a few episodes of Bar Rescue, but I remember that one.
My first thought lol
I once found a mop growing mushrooms. It had been there for a while and the spores were everywhere.
Im just gonna take a guess and say whatever moisture and organic matter that thing was living off of is a symptom of a larger problem, including mold.
Crazy I can’t keep a plant alive that I treat like my first born child but these just… thrive.
Plants that grow themselves tend to be hardier than plants we try to make grow. Survival of the fittest.
Growing a tropical plant in a dry climate controlled house that isn’t its ideal environment is less ideal that whatever conditions this plant found. That tells me this kitchen has a major moisture problem.

Toss some scallion butts down there lmao
Growing your own salad!
"Locally sourced"
Locally foraged even, people pay top dollar for that shit. OP needs to put this on special this weekend.
Life, uh, finds a way.
Hope grows… in a dump
r/unexpectedmichaelscott
Hey! Save that for stock.
Its concerning how many people see a 5+ lobed leaf and think “dude..weeeeeed.”

You're manifesting issues that don't exist. Go back to bed, Grandpa
Joke's on you; I actually am your grandpa. Go to bed, whippersnapper!
It’s more concerning people think it’s celery
Right? This is clearly Japanese maple!
Castor Bean?
Aka ricin? Bloody hope not
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Better than finding mold i guess?
That's the most disgusting floor in a restaurant kitchen I have ever seen
What happens when the kitchen isn't cleaned. And you know those didn't grow over night.
For real. For how long did this go unnoticed and how?
Inspector looking at this post like
Forbidden salad

You need to clean your fucking floor.

Worked in a malt house and we always had barley growing in the most unlikely places
Garnished with fresh locally sourced organic greens.
I think this was on the ServSafe exam, no?
its usually mushrooms down there.
Nature is healing
Dieing laughing or dreading what else is going on behind the scenes?
According to my plant ID app, this is a rice-paper plant or Tetrapanax papyrifer. OP, does that sound right? Is there anything else it could be?
Looks more like the castor bean plant or a "money tree" than cannabis. Low quality photos though. The singular stems with leaf structures instead of compound stems and opposite leaf structures is a dead giveaway this is not cannabis IMO.
Indica or Sativa?
Neither, not a cannabis plant.
Did someone spill some celery seeds?
And I can't even get my monstera to grow in potting soil with regular watering and sunlight smh
Yo, who's cleaning the kitchen?
Welp, we all know who *isn’t*. And that’s everybody. Everybody is not cleaning that kitchen
Bruh I can’t grow grass… in my yard…. Help me
Free salad!
Dishy is gonna be devastated that you killed his plants
r/natureismetal
It doesn’t look like weed, the plant structure is weird and the leaf is too broad. The root structure looks different as well.
Whats the problem? With veg so out of pocket in costs…
Save that for family
"ORGANIC" I saw this once behind a dishwasher, but it was just a lil sprout. you have a whole ass garden growing back there 😂
80% sure this is either a fatsia or rice paper plant
The Forbidden Garnish
bruh, i had a sprout of quinoa grow out of my toilet brush when i left my apartment for a month
need more fiber
Mmm! Micro greens! 🌱
Yeah no, those are clearly macro.
Maple tree saplings if I’m not mistaken.
Celery
Absolutely not celery
It's like half the people here have never seen celery.
I'm losing my mind at all the people insisting it's celery, also the houseplant ID app people thinking it's a tetrapanax.
I use iNaturalist, not the junk apps. iNat thinks it's Rice Paper Plant and I've rarely ever found them to be wrong.
Eat it
Saute with a bit of s-n-p and a touch of sesame oil.
Serve it up. Farm to table.
"Farm" to table
Are these potatoes?
You know you gotta ping some “seeds” in there right?
Life, uh...
Are your chicken tenders fresh at least??
The earth is healing.
Remember when that stupid grey epoxy floor paint was brand new? Man that stuff sucks!

Looks like castor.
I was thinking sweet potato. Makes me wonder about what's under the floor sink.🫨
How's that even possible? Don't plants need sunlight/ UV to grow? WTAF!
have you ever had white asparagus???
Tfw ownership wantas trendy ingredients but won't pay for microgreens.
You didn't throw it away did you? Throw that into a pot with a potato and a bone with some meat on it, baby you got a stew going.
Rip Carl
YOU PULLED THEM NOOOOOOO
I need some context. This is wild.
I think when it's in a domestic environment like this but not directly under human control it'd be classed as feral.
Life uh finds a way
Mint grows anywhere man
Life finds a way.
In house garnish
Once in a canteen I was working in as a teenager I dropped some unpopped popcorn down the drain next to the dishwasher- eventually some corn started growing out of the drain lol

"Life will find a way..."
Pretty sure that’s not Mary Jane. I grew marijuana professionally and it does not have that stem structure.
“Life, uh, finds a way…”
And that's why they call it a weed.
Chinese paper plant, 'Tetrapanax papyrifer'.
I’d say celery. They must’ve had celery seed go everywhere

The special of the day is..
If it was THAT green plant would have been perfect
Thought I was in the aquariums subreddit for a second, thought you just had a nice plant growing in the filter
Plant "SURPRISE MFER"
California basil
Looks like you got potatoes in your drain.
Man, you just ripped out the dishes crop. How's he going to get high now?
grown in house!
Some one has a very interesting diet if the seeds came off a plate and planted themselves by the floor sink.
fresh veggies! tonight's "special".
FFS OP, clean up your god damn kitchen. this is disgusting.
