    Looks like Japanese mustard spinach

    I love spinach. That definitely looks like the stuff I eat.

    Final answers: Spinach

    Not spinach, you probably know better but don’t ever listen to redditors telling you something is edible. It’s hard to say for certain but depending on your general location (which should always be stated when trying to help ID a plant) it could be lesser celandine, Ficaria verna which is toxic and invasive. If you empty the pot and there is a little bulb where it emanates from this could help confirm.

    Wow, these responses are crazier than usual. Your location would be very helpful, along with any other info, but this could be *Arum sp* or similar. Definitely do not eat.

    Looks like spinach, might not be. One thing is for sure. That pot is no longer abandoned.

    These leaves are unpaired.

    So, NOT spinach, eggplant, pumpkin, or anything edible. It’s likely an arum.

    It looks like spinach leaves that you poked into holes in the soil.
    You forgot the basal rosette.
