hey guys,

just wondering if anyone can id this plant? it's growing right beside my carrots and I don't remember growing anything there, it looks like a weed but I've never seen anything like it before. just want to make sure it is before I kill it.

I do believe that is Datura (sometimes called Jimsonweed or Thorn-apple). It's quite toxic, although some cultivars are grown for the striking flowers and interesting seed capsules. Definitely not something you want growing in your vegetable garden!

It looks like jimson weed to me also.

yup, and the deserts of az would be a good place to find them... saw a fair amount of it in my navajo rez days.
