I would guess sunflowers

I second sunflowers. I have bird feeders by my greenhouse which has a bunch of half empty pots by it. I get those sprouts all the time. Pick um, wash um and pop them on a salad. They taste amazing.

I don’t know if there are any sunflower seeds that could have fallen in, could it maybe be lavender sprouts?
