    This year I did find it a bit odd the way my corn tassels filled out long before there were any silks at all, by the time the silks showed up most of the pollen had already dropped , silks are still coming and the pollen is long gone for the most part, making sure to track it down and hand pollinate every silk .

    Have never heard of a tassel turning into a cob before , that is pretty cool and weird for sure.

    Another odd thing for me this year is a white powdery mildew-ish looking fungus or something of the like that is growing in spots on the leaves and stems of certain plants, I have never seen it on any of my plants before, my next door neighbor has it and my friend who lives a few miles away also has it. in the past I have been hit with white and black molds that look nothing like whatever this is and they usually wont hit for another month at least.

    rabbits ate every single pea plant this year, might do something to keep them out of gardens next year
