Little background:
I've always enjoyed gardening when I was a kid. Back then, it was just a simple pot of soil, seed, water, and some sun. I'm still young, so gardening is still like that for me .
When I was around 13, there used to be this pot of soil near my window sill, where my mom would grow this odd looking herb (spikey, has circular leaves, tastes odd, used in curries and soups). There was a lot of room around the plant, and curiosity would get the best of me whenever I'd eat something strange.
So basically, pretty much any fruit I came across and ate, I planted the seed in that pot. I never really got any results, but one day, I ate a couple black olives for the first time. The seeds were still in them, so that hurt my jaw pretty badly. But other than that, I decieded to plant them.
A couple months later, the same amount of black olive seeds that I had planted, came out to be the same amount of wierd looking plants that came out.
I've never seen that plant before. It doesn't look like a weed, and it hasn't ever bloomed. Doesn't look like an herb either. Any ideas? I live in Brooklyn, New York, if that helps. I've never seen this plant around this area.
I'm also really inexperienced with gardening by the way :\
Eck. Friends have been saying it looks like marijuana. Crap I hope that isn't true
