GYG-064 Create Your Own Seed Starting Rack




Growing Your Grub Podcast show

Summary: This week I'll talk about making your own seed starting rack and some of the accessories like lights you'll need and how to connect them.  I'll also show you where to find some great plans on building your own rack from scratch. Although I am a big fan of Eliott Coleman, the Guru of Year round gardening, I also want to tell you about a new book on the subject I just love.  Color photos, drawing, and lots of good information on how you can grow year around- no matter where you live. The author lives in Nova Scotia and has fresh vegetables year around. Mother Earth News has a new Garden Planning app for the iPad.  I bought a copy and will tell you my experiences. I just received my own Garden Tool Caddy, and will share my thoughts on it. http://www.gardentoolcaddy.com Damon's  over at Greenhorn has a great episode on drip irrigation for Square Foot Gardening.  It's not as easy to get right on a Square Fot Garden, but Damon tells you how.   //www.GreenHornGardening.com Gregor’s  Gravity Irrigation Project in Pennsylvania - Discuss Chris McLaughlin was on Martha Stewart (Sirius/XM Radio) to talk about her new book on Small Space Gardening.
