Not a dandelion! What is it?

[Cryss]

I wanted to let this dandelion grow but there is no flower yet. Any idea what this is?

Sorry not sure why it copied so many photos.

That's weird. I've never seen a plant like that before. The leaves look like like dandelions. No idea....

It is Chicory- blue flower or wild lettuce yellow flower, same family as dandilion.

I’ll wait for the flower cuz if it’s chicory I just might keep it. I used to buy chicory to add to my coffee but can’t find it anymore.

Nope that’s not chicory. This video affirms. what I always thought was chicory. So I’m still at a loss.

When you tear a leaf off does the sap look milky or clear? That would be a clue.

I'm thinking it's definitely in the Aster family. Here's a link I found that might be helpful. https://www.wildflowers-and-weeds.com/Plant_Families/Asteraceae.Cichorioideae.htm

Looks similar to sow thistle

I think I’ll wait for a flower. Hopefully that will give me another clue.
