Anyone have seeds in FF?

I am using a FF Ocean Forrest, FF Light warrior, perlite, and worm castings. I've been growing these plants for 9 days and suddenly this little red plant started to pop up right next to my plant. Wondering if anyone else has had something like this?

I had the same thing happen a few months back and the common denominator from your soil mix and mine is the "worm castings". I had given my plants a top coat of worm casting when this happened. I tried to let the stranger grow thinking that maybe it was another MJ plant, but it didn't survive and it was not MJ. I love using worm castings.

I'm using almost the same mix, and to answer your question, no. My guess is maybe a seed got in during the planting. The compost they use to make these soils is pretty well fermented during the composting process. It's unlikely a seed would have survived that process. But I guess it's not impossible. Remove the red plant. If more red plants pop up, repot or remove that pot.

I had a problem with clovers growing in my outdoor tomato pots with FF :P
But I'm sure that was because of the clovers in the grass on the side of our property
