101. Who Needs Soil? We Love Hydroponic Gardening!
Episode description
Denver’s favorite character actor and successful zucchini gardener, Lindsey, joins as guest host and we dive into gardening without soil – Hydroponics!
Did you know you can grow almost any plant in water? That you can get a kit and grow greens and herbs on your counter? And that Lindsey talks with her hands a lot? Get inspired by all the benefits of hydroponic gardening and learn all of Lindsey’s tips and tricks on hydroponic kits:
- What kind of water, how much to sow, what about nutrients.
- What plants are working the best. (Hint: Not potatoes.)
- How does the lighting system works and what to do about cats.
- Plus, she shares with us about cleaning the machine, preventing algae.
Then, Christy shares how to make your own hydroponic system if you are prepping for the zombie apocalypse. Plus tips on geraniums and winter sowing!
Need a laugh? Don’t worry, we got some fun, too. When Edith’s rosemary plant died, it sprouted the podcast-within-a-podcast phenomenon called Who Killed Rosemary and we have a brand-new episode and a brand-new suspect! For all our True Crime/Gardener fans!
