It just suddenly there, i didn't even see it yesterday and this morning when i tend to my other plants it's just suddenly there, i didn't even sow or plant anything there. Any idea what this plant is?

Those are the cotyledons, the seed leaves. The true leaves that will come out next might look different. They usually do. I don't know what plants would have these cotyledons in Indonesia. If nobody can tell you, take another photo when the true leaves emerge and post it. Maybe you'll have better luck.

Hi GardeningNoob, Welcome!

My first thought was possibly Helianthus (Sunflower) but at that stage, it really could be anything. If you didn't sow any seeds in that planter, maybe a seed was in the soil, or perhaps it was a gift from a bird. Shrug!


Eventually it should show it's true self but meanwhile, I will move this over to the Plant Identification Forum where it will get more views and perhaps someone will recognize it.

Welcome!
I agree that at its current stage a 100% accuracy on a ID is no guarantee.
It reminds me of Ricinus communis commonly known as Castor Bean.

Here's our database entry for Castor Beans (Ricinus communis) and an almost identical photo for comparison!
