  • Seedling ID

    Hello I hope you’re all alright,I was weeding my onions just now & noticed these (I grew courgette there last year but I might’ve left a bit of squash there for the hedgehog or is it something else?) they're also amongst the onions & self seeded leeks,there’s a lot of self seeding going on,please let me know what you think they are,they don’t look like my normal weeds the seed leaves are so big?

    Took a while but I eventually managed to see them! Is it Borage?

      Things are running slow on here,it could be borage there was some plants nearby,do you think I should just leave them or try separating them? They’ll be alright probably?

        Definitely borage.
        They make pretty big plants, so I'd thin them. You could try replanting the thinnings elsewhere, although they may not survive.

          Thanks for the ID it’s a nice addition then,I’ve got a feeling if I touch them they’ll be worse off but I’ll try maybe in clumps

            They look like pumpkin/marrow ETC.
            These are "jazzy" pumpkin seedlings.

              The seed leaves do look like those too. Borage was growing about two foot away from there last year,it must’ve seeded there,it’s nice having these self seeders in the border
