getthegat Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 No idea, but it looks quite alien or at least foreign. Maybe the seed you bought is produced somewhere other than the UK, IE China, pretty much everything else comes from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t sure if it came in the seeds or if it was a seed that grew after it had passed through the birds system thanks for your reply all the best of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old man Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Don't think it came from the bird seed? I had millet grow once, very robust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
