Hi and Welcome to another episode of The Messed Up Gardener. There are so many different ways that nature reproducers and how as humans we have adapted to replicate those forms of reproduction. So much of our horticultural industry is based on asexual plant propagation that if those skills were lost it could be detrimental to the survival of the human population. Some of these methods are also utilised to preserve plant varieties that may have already have disappeared if it was not for asexual propagation techniques such as grafting or budding.

Hi and welcome back to The Messed Up Gardener My name is Esther Aitken and I am your host for todays 10 min or less quick & messy garden chat. I keep getting questions from my amazing listeners that do not fill my traditional weekly podcast, and as the last 10min or less quick & messy garden chats have been so successful I figured I'd keep recording them. Please keep sending me any gardening questions and I’ll see if I can accommodate them as either a quick & messy or as a formal podcast episode. This week's question was raised by C Stevenson’s from Gisborne NZ. The question is I have prickles in my lawn especially in summer that get stuck in the kids bare feet - how do I get rid of them?

Hi and Welcome to another episode of The Messed Up Gardener. Hydroponic gardening is an interesting topic for several reasons. Firstly, it allows for plants to be grown in a soil-free environment, which can be beneficial in areas where soil quality is poor or limited. Additionally, hydroponic gardening can lead to higher crop yields and faster growth rates compared to traditional soil-based methods. It also allows for more precise control over plant nutrients and water supply, resulting in healthier plants. Finally, hydroponic gardening is a sustainable and space-efficient method of agriculture, making it a popular choice for urban and indoor gardening.In this episode I go through a number of the questions that I have been asked around hydroponic gardening over the years and I included a number of how to’s that have worked well for me in the past.
