RE: Oops - what is this plant ???


Hi Everyone - 
I've another question.  It's sort of twofold.  When I bought all my veggies, one
flat I purchased was brussels sprouts.  Planted them 3 in a square.  All was
well.  Now it is 2 1/2 weeks later, and I notice 4 of the plants look pretty
much alike ( including their bottom leaves having turned yellow from the 40 days
and 40 nights of rain we've been getting here in New England... ) but two of
them look very different.  In fact, they happen to look just like the purple
cabbage I planted - minus the purple.  I think I got petit-chou and regular chou
!!! Has anyone else ever gotten a flat of what was supposed to be the same plant
and then later found out that some were different ?  I'm somewhat at a loss of
what to do.  I'm not sure they are regular cabbage, they look an awful lot like
the purple cabbage, planted two squares away, but I'm not totally sure.  I do
know they are different than the other four.  So I guess my question is do I rip
them out ?  Eek !!! Isn't that against the law somewhere ???? Do I try to
replant them ( not sure where I would replant as my square are all full ) ?  Or
do I just leave them be and see what they become ?  
Oh the decisions the decisions.  Who knew gardening was going to be so
stressful....
