    Those are the cotyledon or seed leaves (the first two leaves produced by the seed)  not the true leaves, so you can’t identify a plant from those. 

    Do you have any idea what might’ve been sown in those modules?  We might be able to help more now if we knew some possibles … otherwise it’s wait a bit longer …

    Did you sow the Mizuna you spoke of here https://forum.gardenersworld.com/discussion/1072044/48-cell-seed-tray-what-to-plant/p2. ?

    The pic Is from a seed packet with no name on it, i sowed them about a month ago. I'm just amazed they've germinated. The cotyledons are fairly big. I sowed the Mizuna, they've all germinated, got them on window sill now to get good light.

    But where did the seed packet come from?  How did you happen to have it?  I may be known asMiss Marple, but even she needs a few clues … what did you think you were sowing?

    It was a paper envelope with SP on it, it isn't sweetpeas. Can't be spinach...

    Maybe spring onions? Not that I know what spring onions look like, just it begins SP! 😂

    Why can’t it be spinach? The seed leaves of spinach look a lot like that … I’ve found you a picture … scroll down here

    Correction:  start labelling things clearly and correctly.  You know it makes sense.

    You should at least be able to recognise monocot from dicot.
