I meant to plant cucumbers...

...but did I? I'm working on a small bucket garden on my balcony, and this is my first time planting cucumbers. I was thrilled at the huge healthy plant that shot out of the cuke bucket, but I can't find a picture of a cucumber plant online that looks anything like it. The stalk reminds one of a certain legally dubious plant that shall remain nameless, while the leaves look almost like maple leaves. Did I accidentally plant a tree?

Thank you for any help.

RE: I meant to plant cucumbers...

It is like no cucumber I have ever seen... Perhaps you don't want to invite the cop next door over for coffee... But when I had a similar situation, I asked a neighbor who used to live in Mexico what she thought it was, and it turned out to be celome... but this isn't that...
