Welcome! to NGA

Is this something you planted? Something you dug up in the yard? Was given to you?

Can you update you information to include you location?

This was planted from a seed and those looked quite like a typical carrot seed. It was something I was given without any other info of what it is.

Could it be Rumex of some sort? For some reason it reminds me a bit of Dock.
Red-veined Dock (Rumex sanguineus var. sanguineus)
Red-Veined Sorrel (Rumex sanguineus)
Bitter Dock (Rumex obtusifolius)

It reminds me of Celosia but that wouldn't fit if the seeds looked like carrot seeds and it's supposed to be a vegetable.

More likely Celosia or Amaranth.

I agree the apperance is a close match but the either seeds of those plants don't look like the ones I planted.

It is also possible that a seed germinated that was already in the soil or delivered by birds and your seed did not.

I agree with Amaranthus of some sort. I planted a wildflower seed mix and some of what came up looked like the link Lin posted. Hopefully, I now know what it is.
