After a short excursion to Westfest today we headed over to my parents to put our half of the garden into the space they generously plowed up for us. We had to spend a few hours picking clumps of sod out of the freshly turned soil, but once we set down to actual planting, it went pretty quick. We put in a bunch of regular old veggies, but it wouldn’t be a Jason Cobill garden without some freaky mutant hybrid plants.

I’ve been reading about interesting heirloom varieties and hybridization – maybe I’ll try crossing my cucumbers with jellyfish this year. Mmmm, Pirhanapples. Kukumberoos?

Living among the normal radishes and cucumbers you’ll find:

Chocolate Peppers

8-Ball Zuchinni

Black Cherry Tomatoes
