Garden goods and their adjectives (Solution)

 Let's solve this week's Sunday puzzle from NPR:

This week's challenge comes from listener Rachel Cole of Oakland, Calif. Name something grown in a garden. Change the second letter, and double the third letter, to get an adjective that describes this thing. What is it?


I pretty much used my proposed approach, which you can see here.

And my solver script is available here, along with the list of "garden things" I compiled for this task.


The solution:

radish --> reddish


See you for the next Sunday Puzzle!
