  Speaker 2: Well, guess who's back, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: It is Garden America minus one. I'm Brian Maine along
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: with Tiger Pellafox. Welcome to those on biz Talk Radio
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Facebook Live. As we get more and more people tuned
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: in this morning, John is well, John's not here obviously
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: he would be next to me normally to my left.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: John's in Alaska. He's in Alaska now right, He's not
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: still traveling.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: I remember his trip itinerary, but that's where he is.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: That's where he's.
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: Heading, heading to Alaska.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: My career there already.
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: Obviously right a cruise, I hope.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: So he's not going to one of those like boat planes.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: He's not going to ilk cutting water plane. But if
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: he was, he would be taking one of those planes
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: right to drop them off for a week and to
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: come back and get you. So uh yeah, so John's
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: having a little bit of a break from what's going
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: on here. It has warmed up tremendously here in San
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Diego the past couple of days. And you know how
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I know that besides the obvious.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, besides sweating as you walk outside.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: It is your water, the plants. And a day or
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: two goes by and you're like, I don't need a
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: water room yet. Yeah, and you go outside if you
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: have indicated plants like impatients or hydranges. It's like, you know,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: we're letting you know that not only do we need water,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: the rest of us need water.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it does. It just sucks up that moisture
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: so fast.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: So fast, and and you know it's we've talked about
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: this before, but you know, you go along the coast
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: and it's still a little cloudy and cool, only five
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: to ten minutes inland and it's sunny and hot and dry,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: and yeah, you know, just that little bit of distance
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: can can make a big change and how you handle
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: your lands and how you water in your lawn. You know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: I was at someone's house the other day and rancher Bernardo,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: which is a little bit inland San Diego, and they
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: are watering their lawn once a week for a good
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: soaking automatically.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, automatically, so they're gonna forget about the weather change.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Well, but I'm looking at them like it's dry, and
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I go, yeah, you're soaking the water, but it's drying
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: in between. And then now the lawn's not doing well.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: So you need a water three maybe four times a week,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: and just water a little bit less. It will be
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: much better, you know. So you got to remember that
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: that not all root systems are super deep.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Well, and again, as I mentioned, if you're on an
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: automatic drip system or automatic watering, that's going to take
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: care of itself. And then you forget that the past
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: couple of two or three days it went from being
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: seventy five now it's ninety five or whatever. And so
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: you have to be cognizant, be aware of what's going
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: on and adjust accordingly. But we've had some some weather now,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: especially with me. Everything's in pots, so things tend to
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: dry out pretty quickly.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know that's just because you know, ponting
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: soil is designed to be draining, so you know, it
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: should won't go through and you know, unlike you know
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: in the ground that holds more moisture. It also gives
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: the roots more room to kind of grab onto water
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: where you know, they'll stretch out three four feet away.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: We're in a pot. It's it's all right there. And
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: you don't water, it's not good. And pots also sometimes
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: get a lot hotter.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: So yeah, they do.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: If the pots are in the full sun, whether they're
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: ceramic or clay or plastic, the pot gets hotter, and
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: therefore you have to water more because it dries out.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: And here's something else too, when it comes to soil,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: because I noticed, you know, you look around, you think,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you know what soil looks a little old, you know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and maybe I should. Hey, sometimes you can just forget
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: their fertilizer and just put some soil in.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: There, replenish it, replenish.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: It and or top it off or something, because a
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: lot of soils these days have a lot of the
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: nutrients that back in the day didn't have.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: And and not only that, like you know, you mentioned,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: you know, changes in soil. So we've switched from this
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: peak base material where it was a lot of peat
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: and soil that help moisture to core, which is also
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: a really good moisture retaining aspect of the soil too.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: So you know, the newer soils are replenishing that ability
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: to absorb and hold it, you know. And John's talked
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: about this a number of times where he likes a
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: well draining soil because it's it's you know, long term
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: better for the plants if you can have a well
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: draining soil and just water more frequently. But through these
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: times a year where it does get hot, it is
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: nice to have a little bit of soil that retains moisture.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Right exactly.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: So yeah, so here we are. It's middle of June.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to say it's going to be continually hot.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Now for the rest of summer. We might have a
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: little Remember last year because you got mad at me
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: last year because we had gone through June.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: July very moderate.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I brought up the fact that this is
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: a great, nice, cool summer and then you said, way
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: to go, way to go to jinx it. Yeah, wait,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: give it a week and yeah, sure enough. Yeah, it
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: got just unbearable. So just be aware of your surroundings.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: The plant surroundings change your water schedule if you have to,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and you know, plan accordingly.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: And do your best of water in the evening or
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: early morning, right because like I mean, you're just getting
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: the soil wet, you know, and it just dries up
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: if you're watering in the middle of the day, and
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: if you water in the evening or early morning, it's
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: going to soak into the plants. It gives a chance
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: the plants a chance to absorb it and utilize it
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: and get it to all of its parts of its
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: you know, plant to be able to kind of like
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: you know, sustain the leaves, sustain the branches all that.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Where when you water at eleven o'clock in the morning,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: half of that water is evaporating.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: I like to water in the evening. That's a great time,
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: right because then you get all night.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be a little bit cooler. They can absorb
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: the water less stress. You know, the morning's good, but
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: then it's gonna be hot in.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: A few hours.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But if you can let it soak for eight hours, yeah,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: and the evening got a bad wrap you know, a
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: long time ago. And it is different for other places
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: because you know, they talk about disease and mildew and
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: issues with moisture staying overnight on plants. For us in
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: souther California, that's not a problem. Other places, yeah, that
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: is a bit of a concern. But also those places
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: are where they have thunderstorms and a high humidity already
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: already exactly right, so the plants are already dealing with that,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: not just you watering at night. You know. Did you
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: see like Washington, d c. Right now is just getting
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: you know, thunderstorms and rainstorms, and you know, I mean
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: it's summertime. This is what happens, is that.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: I know back in the day, I went to school
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: in Flagstaff, Arizona, back in the day, and so I
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: would stay there and work throughout the summertime. And the
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: first summer there, they said, hey, you know what, once
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: a day, every day, a monsoon comes in. Yeah, and
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: it was it's stormy and thunder and water and then
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: it moves out. And I'm like, really, sure enough, in
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the summer every day comes in, the front, moves in,
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: moves out.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: It's like, wow, do you know do you know where
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: that comes from? Like, you know, because when we talk
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: about marine layer here in San Diego, it comes from
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: the ocean comes in in the evening, right, and depending
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: on how strong it is in the weather, it depends
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: on how deep it goes into inland San Diego. But
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: then it moves out throughout the day and if it's
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: a good day, you get it, you get a break
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: of it, and along the coast. If it's a bad day,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: it never really breaks the coast. Where does that moisture
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: come from Arizona? That monsoonal moisture is it come from?
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Does it come from the mountains up there?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess yes, there is a mountain range. There's
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: also a place called Snowboll which is a big skiing destination.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: Resort up there.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: But that's a good question and something else unrelated but
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: related in terms of the environment and the soil.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: It's a huge volcanic rocky area.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of you know, yava exactly the
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: whole history you can see there. So it's got good
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: soil in terms of that. But yeah, would imagine if
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: it comes down from the mountains.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna I must not be like a circulating thing, right,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: because it's not like it's pulling in that moisture from
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the ocean. Or from this massive lake or anything like that.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Like it's just got to be this like circulating because
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: like you say, it's almost like every day every day.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just like my clockwork. I'll tell you what. I
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: what I really discovered up there was the water that
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: comes out of here sink. Oh oh, it's like the purest, freshest.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: This is back in the day when nobody really carried
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: around water bottles to drink.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: But just going from you just you just go and
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: do a sink and just tap water here compared to
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: up there in the mountains beautiful.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: I'm heading to Veil, Colorado this upcoming week, and that
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: is one thing I'm kind of looking forward to.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: It's the water.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I mean I'm assuming, I'm assuming it's going to be good.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: I don't know, but always those mountains seas, oh yeah,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: that have you know, you know, heavy reliance on just
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: snow and rain and all that always have good.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: Wee those Coors beer commercials and they show the stream
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: the melting.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Still like going straight into the beer and.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: This is the water we use for the beer.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Hey, So any questions, comment yet, whatever's on your mind
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: to let us know as we move into summertime here.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got a lot of great people joining us

• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Kevin wrote just beautiful here in Idaho, and then Carla says,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: I won't tell you about the Huntington Beach weather. It's
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: probably been perfect, you know, you talking a little breeze,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: little breeze, sunny.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: Seventy one, seventy five degrees.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: And she did mention the waves have been really big here,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: great surf tiger, And she's right, they've been getting a swell.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Have you remember the wedge in Newport Beach?
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Absolutely that that break right on shore.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that that it got a like once
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: in a lifetime storm. This time of year, it gets this,
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: It gets this surf throughout the year, right, but not
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: in June, you know, and it was massive.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Did you ever body surf Marine Street?
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: Lao?
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Yah?
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the waves you know, I'm thinking back.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: I mean the wave and the beach in the s
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: all right there, it just throws you into the sand. Yes,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: and it's like, really, how did you not? How did
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: I not hurt myself? What is the fun of that?
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: But the Newport Beach is the same. It's a short
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: break obviously.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: Right yeah, yeah, it's right there on the short shore break.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: Massive waves. And then also, as Tanya mentioned, king tides
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: up here around San Francisco. Yes, we are getting extreme
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: high tides along the coast as well, which for another
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: thing that you know, when there's big surf and the
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: extreme high tides, and that's when you get that like
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: you know, washing of the beach, there's that you know
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: restaurant right there in the marine room and the oil
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: where you're sitting there eating dinner and the waves hitting
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: the window as you're it is right, but it's also
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: kind of like one of those things like when you're
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: at a zoo and like the gorillas behind and you're like, like,
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: what's holding back this animal? You know?
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: Speaking of San Francisco, have you ever surfed Mavericks?
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Never?
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: You know what?
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: That's as good as I was, and I wasn't the best. No,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: that's reserved for people that are very good surfers, crazy
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: that don't know any better. And you know another place
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: and you'll know this is Portugal, some of.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: The best ways in the world.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: So see, so there you go from gardening to surfing.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Exactly, switching topics.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: But we'll weave our way back because you could talk about.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Seaweed exactly right, and how it's one of the fastest
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: growing plants and it is.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: It washes up.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: It's weird how you'll go to the beach one day
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: and it's a beautiful, sandy, clean beach and then the
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: next day it's covered with all seed. Yeah.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: And one of those little things we used to pop
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: on the seat.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: A little floating that's what helps it.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: Float exactly, exactly exactly, So yeah, seaweed. And also it's
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: a great fertilizer, rightl.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Kelpeg know, kelp emulsion, kelp extract like, you know, excellent fertilis.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, we just today or not
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: just today, just yesterday, I had my crew put some
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: liquid kelp on a couple of citrus trees because yeah,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: the hard thing with with the hot weather, right is
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: that you water more. Right, Okay, Well, when you water more,
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: sometimes you're diluting the plants and they start to turn yellow.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: And if you don't supplement the fertilizer, they just begin
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: to yellow and you know, they don't look good and
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: they don't you know, grow as well. Well, you put
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: down a mill organize a uh you know, you know
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: fertil you know that organic. Sometimes it's just that's just
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: not fast enough. So if you use a you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: liquid kelp, fish emulsion or some kind of liquid fertilizer,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: that'll help green them up a bit quicker, which will
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: help them also sustain the heat more because the healthy
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: plant is going to you know, not be effected by
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: drought as much.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: So here's a question so you use a malorganite, which
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: is which is you water it in? Ye say, yeah, granule, right, yeah,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: a granule as opposed to liquid kelp because now you
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: have something liquid going into the plant, is a fertilizer
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: versus granule. So that would you say that a liquid
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: fertilizer like kelp would sustain moisture better than granule.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: So you want to use them both. It's kind of
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: like it's kind of like a fast acting like you
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: get that you know, vitamin.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: B one shot, the compliment each other, and.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: Then you do want to sustain yourself with like good food,
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: and so a granule is good to kind of keep
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: the soil moving along and all that. But then, like
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: I said, like when a plant is yellow, sometimes a
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: granule doesn't quite hit the plant as hard or as
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: quickly as a liquid was. Okay, So that's why I
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: kind of like told them to use both. Yeah, you know,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: and I'm not you know, we've talked about, uh, we've
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: talked about organic fertilizers sustaining the plant. I'm not opposed
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: to a chemical liquid fertilizer to help the plant green up,
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: flour whatever it is. But you do just want to
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: not have it be the only thing that.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: You right, right right right, So compliment, compliment.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: It exactly exactly, All right, Sorry, I'm just sending off
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: a message here. Mmm.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: Do you a personal rookter in the show?
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: Yep?
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: Exactly, So you have to do it, you have to
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: do it. So whatever else is on your mind today,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: what's going on? I mean, obviously the heat throughout California,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: we're not going to be as hot as renting. However,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: you go inland. See that's the thing if you're not
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: familiar with San Diego. You have the beach, the coast,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: the mountains, the desert.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: The inland areas.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: You could go from a you know, one oh five
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: inland to the beach and it's seventy five degrees. Go
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: to the mountains winter time you've got snow. Come out
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: here to the beach coast you've got sixty five to
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: seventy five degrees. I'm doing the best I can to
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: f thank you very much.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm kind of going through the questions now
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: and title. Some like it hot, the rest of us
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: not so much.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: You know what, put let's put that in our pocket
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: for like that. That's very good based on the movie. Yeah, yeah,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: that's very.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: That's what we're talking about here.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: See as we moved through the show so far, that's
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: I would that's that's up there as number one right
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: now until somebody can get something better.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: And you know what to kind of go to keep
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: that topic going on. Some like it high. We've talked
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: about this before, but I do want to mention it
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: because this is the time of year that we're breaking
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: into this weather and some plants like it on. A
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: lot of people will think instantly succulents and cactus love
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: the heat, right right, They think that that's you know,
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: those plants. The thing you have to remember is that
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: those kinds of plants are also a a reverse dormancy
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: compared to like the plants that don't like it cold.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: So plants that go dorm it in the wintertime, they
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: go dorm in the wintertime because it's cold, because it's snowy,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: all of those issues, so they avoid it by just
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: going to sleep. Right. Well, these plants that survive in
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: these really hot environments are the opposite because in the
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: wintertime in the desert, it's cold, it's rainy, and should
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: we take a break and then I'll finish it up
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: when I come to.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Take a break. All right, you saw my finger doing this?
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: I did. Yeah, I got your message. I see where
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: you're leading with that.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: You know what they say, don't you know? When you
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: get the message, you can hang up the phone. What
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: I don't know? What does that mean? So we're going
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: to take a break.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Great sponsors on BizTalk Radio, Fritil Home supporting us Johnasan
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Alaska's Brian Mayin, Tiger Pelafox here taking the break on
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Gardener Marya.
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: Welcome back to the Garden America Radio Show with Brian
• 20:15
  Speaker 7: John and Tiger.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Okay, back from the break. We trust you had a
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: good break so far. The leading candidate for the title
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: of today's show is some Like It Hot. This, by
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: the way, is one of our longer segments, so a
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: lot of questions and comments we can weave in and
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: out of different topics and various things to chat about
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: here on this What a beautiful day.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: Right right? So so clear Sky's Sonny, that tree is
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: just naturally leaning the money, Yeah, exactly.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: It's a leaning tower of what happens. You know.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: It's like pine cones on it too. So before the break,
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: we were talking about how some plants like it hot
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: as we get into the summer islands, so cactus succulents
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: they go dorm it in the summer, so meaning because
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: where they're native to it gets really hot, and you know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: they don't have an irrigation system, they go with dorm
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: it in the summertime, so they shrink up. They begin
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: to just hold on to whatever they have to last
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: through the summertime to make it into the fall when
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: they hopefully get their first ring. And people don't realize that,
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: but they begin to water more. They begin to wonder
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: why those plants are not growing or thriving, and it's
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: because they're going dormant. You can't you can't take an apricot,
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: you know, that wants to lose its leaves, wants to
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: go dorm it and keep it and sustain it the
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: whole year. It just isn't going to do well. So
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: now is the time. Just sustain your succulents and those
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: really like low water plants. You don't have to cut
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: off the water to them, because then they'll look like
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: tumble weeds and not do great. But you don't increase
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: the water. Just sustain them, let them do their natural thing,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: get through the summer and then as the weather breaks come,
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: you know, September October into the fall, then begin to
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: ramp up the water again. Then they're going to break
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: out of their dormancy and begin to go. If you
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: if you try to force them to grow now, you
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: run the risk of rotting them out.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Is a tumbleweed still a tumbleweed if it's not tumbling?
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: No, do you drive the weed? It's just a weed, right, yeah,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: because the only reason why it's a tumbleweed is it's tumbling.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: It's tumbling.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: Otherwise it's just a weed.
• 22:27
  Speaker 8: It's just a weed.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: A weed. We can get into a whole that whole
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: weed thing. Yeah, you know right.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we've actually we've got a few weeds in the
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: property that have some pretty nice looking.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: Flowers on it. Oh yeah, there are those ones.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: You're like, is that a weed or is that a
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: plant that I can't identify?
• 22:44
  Speaker 9: All?
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: Right? Topic question comment? What's going on?
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: Uh? Tanya? Every week, this is so funny. Every week
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: my husband asks about your yellow amber colored light by
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: your plants on the counter. Is it something special for
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: plants or just for fun? It's just it's just for fun.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: It's there, Yeah, because if you look right here, there's
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: this kind of like there's a hue, a yellowish hue,
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: yellowish hue that looks like it's like a grow that.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: That looks different on camera that does than it does here.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: And it's just a you know, an undercounter light. But
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: I will say it's one of those strip strip lights.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: And they do sell those with the different UV race
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: as grow lights. And you can for because a lot
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: of people will keep you know, in house plants and
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: they'll put them there and they'll treat them and they
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: don't have a well lit room, so they that can
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: be changed to like a grow light. You know what
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I discovered, And I don't need to hear. There's plenty
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: of light here.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: In the last year at home depot, so I was
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: looking for some lad replacement lights and I told the guy,
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: I don't want the soft light. I want the bright.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: He goes, it doesn't matter.
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: What do you mean?
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Doesn't matter because on the light you can adjust it.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: It's got it self adjusting on the light. You can
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: go from bright to soft light to like there's three
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: or four settings.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, I want some of those. So
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: you just you go wherever you put them you just adjust.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I went bright, you could have like five in a
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: row and have them a different ones, like different light intensities. Yeah,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: I'm such a techy gadget nerd. I didn't even need
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: him and I bought him. Yeah, what else do we
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: have going?
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: Kevin gave us an update on Alaska weather. It's seventy
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: five with rain on the way for the next five days.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: So John, John, it's nice weather, but rain. I wonder
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: if it's Kevin, If it's seventy five during the day,
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: what is it at night? Because like I said in veil,
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: it's seventy five seventy eight during the day, but forty
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: four at night. That's a big swing. That's a big drop.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Does is Alaska the same.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: I would imagine probably close. Yeah, And I assume he's
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: again leaving from Seattle. If they're on a cruise, going
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: up through some.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: Fjords and being on the water too, that's the water
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: cool because cold water. When we did the cruise, we.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Left Seattle, we stopped at various little little towns along
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: the way, got out, you know, saw a different part
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: of Alaskan life. Yeah, you're not just stay in the
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: boat the whole time.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Right, Veronica has said that the forecast for this winter
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: is the super Nino, which is true. We talked about this,
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: I think a show or two.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: A few weeks and John was very skeptical about that.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: He is, You and I had heard about it, Yeah,
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: our listeners and viewers did.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: Because the weather people don't like even even when here
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: in San Diego, they'll say like a ninety nine percent
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: chance of rain, you know, and then there's a good
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: chance they're saying one hundred percent chance.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: They're like, it's a no doubter.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So, which means a lot of moisture from about
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: San Francisco down to kind of Cabo and then all
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: the way through that you know, middle section into Texas.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: As a city like San Diego, we have a lot
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: of flooding and Mission Valley in various places. Yeah, knowing
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: that this is probably it would be a very wet winter.
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: Guaranteed to happen. What do you do to prepare for that?
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: If you know what's coming and it's going to be
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: worse than previous years, you know, the levees, the dikes,
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: you mean, you got to prepare ahead of time.
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: Well, this is the balance, right for I mean, let's
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: talk about our own personal properties. First, you know, you
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: want to make sure your drains are clean. You want
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: to make sure everything's operating optimally, to make sure the
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: water gets away from your home or doesn't pull up
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: or doesn't come into the home in any which way.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: So you know, that's a matter of making sure that
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: the drains are working properly, making sure that your your
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: land is sloped away from your house, making sure that
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: you know you're you're not running your irrigation system.
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: When you shouldn't be right exactly.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: You want the soil to absorb it dry out between.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: If you're running your sprinklers during the rain, you're just
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: adding more problems and the soil is already saturated.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: And a water bill that you don't have to pay,
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: or shouldn't pay because you don't.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Need it exactly. So you know, as you start to
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: see this weather pattern begin to move into us, yeah,
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: turn off the water, shut it up, be modern, proactive, moderate,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: and be proactive a little bit more. But I would say,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: now on another level, this is very difficult for the
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: water districts because you know, I mean, you know they've
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: got to sit there and look at a reservoir water table, right,
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: they got to say, all right, we have to drop
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: it because water is going to come into this lake
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: and we don't want it overfilling the dam or you know,
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: whatever it is, the levee or whatever they have, right,
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: and so they got to drop that water level. But
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: they also know that we're in southern California. And if
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: they drop it too much and then it's not as
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: big of a rain or not as big of a
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: rain event, and now you're like, oh no, we just
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: wasted a ton of water. Then you know, it's it
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: becomes a challenge. So it's gonna be a it's gonna
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: be interesting here. Sure, so we'll see what happens. But nonetheless,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: you know, for on a personal level, for your homes,
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: you know, monitor you irrigation system, make sure your ground
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: is sloped, properly fertilized. You know, we talked about organic fertilizers.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: It's a great time to do that because then the
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: soil will become a mended and drain and naturally absorb water.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: You'll be ready to go.
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know that stuff you can do for
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: sure get rain. You know the other thing too is
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: gets if you don't have gutters. Now, for your roof,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: get down, because it's a great way to control where
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: the water will go and how you get it away
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: from the home. If you don't have gutters, it just
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: falls and sometimes it's gonna settle into a puddle.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: Putt a big barrel and you're in collect water. I
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: mean you can do that.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: That's gonna be a big barrel for sure, right.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: You know what? Yeah, but plant accordingly. Do it ahead
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: of time.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Exactly by hearing a bird jackhammer, I think, oh, you're right,
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: someone's doing some work today.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: That's a distance away. Yeah, I've got a up with
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: two or three minutes before the next break.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Good morning, has Tom Joyce. My cucumbers are growing like crazy.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: You can't wait to make pickles, you know. And Joyce,
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: that's funny you mentioned that, because yeah, cucumbers are on
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: the verge right now. But cucumbers are also one of
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: those plans that you're out there and you're like, okay,
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: you know they're this big, I'm gonna get let them
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: get a little bit bigger, because then they're gonna be
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: the optimal pickling size. Right then you go out there
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: like three days later and they're way too big. So
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: you got to watch the watering on those being care.
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: Could they be overriped?
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: Well, like they become as they get bigger and bigger,
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: they they don't become as good of a flavor, right, Okay,
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: so that's the issue with that, Leonor, I planted cucumbers
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: and forgot to water the seeds. It's the pickles. I'll
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: miss my mom. Tony fertilom logo looks like it hangs
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: on the cuckoo clock, right, it's right there. Yeh, it's
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: like hanging up right there.

  Speaker 4: They said, put us by the put us on a
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: cuckoo clock.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Leonora, her cucumber seeds forgot you forgot to order. But
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: arugula and tomatoes are coming up. Arula, wow, like you know,
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: because it's it's getting hot, so you gotta keep that way.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: We've been to ugula.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Oh that's a ruba. We're going to take a break

• 30:49
  Speaker 7: Stay with us, Welcome back to the Garden America Radio

• 31:23
  Speaker 2: BIS Talk Radio. Thank you each and every week if
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: you do want to catch us live. We hit the
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: airwaves or the streaming or the digital I at about
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: well six minutes after rate on the West coast, that
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: would be eleven oh six Eastern time zone, and then
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: you've got Mountain in Central and we always encourage people
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: to figure that out.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: You know, before the break, Joyce had mentioned her cucumbers,
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: and Leonor mentioned aru and tomatoes, and I will say,
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: as we're getting into the time of year we're harvesting
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: these vegetables. This is something that people need to realize too.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: We're talking about watering. Is it's great to water these plans,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: to sustain them and keep them happy. And healthy. But
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: also it's great to back off a little bit on
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: the watering as you begin to get into the harvesting
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: time because if you overwater the plants through the ripening period,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: you're gonna get a little bit more water down fruit,
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: water down flavor. So it's good to back off a
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: little bit bit. Yeah, let the sugars develop, let the
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: flavors stay in the fruit, Let the fruit not grow
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: so big that they become water and.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Liken that to various varieties of avocados. Yeah, that are
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: just more watering naturally, and don't make a good dip.
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, kind of like that, Like it's just a
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: two moist.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: It's just a green goeweyness, green no flavor.
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, green goog guacam say that green goog guacam.
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: There you go. Do you think that? You know they
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: talk about during the Super Bowl the like number one
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: dip is guacamole, right, so that's where they say, So
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: do you think World Cup the number one dip is
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: guaalkam moly too?
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: I think it's conte sauce, pick.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: Pace, pick up paste. Do you remember that pick up
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: the pace?
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: Pick up the pace? And that was the other one
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: New York City.
• 33:14
  Speaker 10: Was that pace also that was Yeah, maybe New York City.
• 33:18
  Speaker 10: And that's good question because I don't know. I'm not
• 33:22
  Speaker 10: even sure how they figured that out. As far as
• 33:24
  Speaker 10: I guess what. The sales of avocados go up. Yeah,
• 33:27
  Speaker 10: people are buying more rush.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: You know already made quaalka Molly.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: It's dom. There is sizzling heat here in Peshwar now.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: It's eight thirty four pm now, but no cloud now,
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: the clouds are dancing. And before writing my comment, just
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: check the weather forecast and there's twenty percent chance of
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: rain tonight.
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: So has Tom hot and obviously he's on celsius. Yes, Tom,
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: what is your Celsius scale? Say ture temperature and then
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: we'll we'll figure out to fahrenheit.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: On this and then Carla, are we ending early today? No,
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: we're gonna have a full show. We're gonna have a
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: full show, Carla, the whole.
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: Week actually did some week dates to the system.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and we will, we will. This is our last spot,
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: This is the last segment for our one. We'll shut down,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: shut down and then re start. But we're gonna have
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: another foal so again, it'd be.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Just like startting over again. It's like a old John
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Lennon song off the album Double Fantasy. Anyway, not to
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: go in that direction, but we will top of the hour, shutdown,
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: go get a cup of coffee, something to eat, come back,
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: and then we'll start again. That'll be our two for
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: both BIS Talk Radio and Facebook Live.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: And this is a great question that Kevin is asking
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: the group. How many gardeners from our group start their
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: vegetables from seed or do they go and buy plants?
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: And you know, that's a great question because you know
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: a lot of people will just be like, you know what,
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: I went to the store, I got it tomato plant,
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: and then they planted it. And that's what I would do.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Both because you kind of have to you kind of
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: want to see something already, yeah, but then you also
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: want the satisfaction of like like giving birth, like you know.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: This this is.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: From a seed. You know, so you have so and
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: then and then you then you already have some. Then
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: you have some that you know, and you're playing the
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: numbers game too well.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: Like also it's very hard to find everything that you
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: want in plant, so meaning you kind of have to
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: have seeds for some plants because that's just how they sell, right,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: So you just have to be able to do You're
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: gonna you have to do both. And like you said,
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: it is fun to start things from seed because you
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: started it. You did it.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: That's given birth analogy. I started that.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: But yeah, just so you can see something that's already
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: you know, become a small plant is fun as well.
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: By doing both, and you know, and you know, you're
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: another level gardener. It's like, so there's the gardeners. And
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: by no means do I mean to offending anyone out there. Okay,
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: there's the gardeners that go to a store and buy
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: the veggies plant. Okay, that's one level a gardener. Then
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: there's the gardeners that plant from seed. You know, they
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: start things from seed and then they start their flowers
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: vegetables from that, so I have.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: More control over it from the get go.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Okay. Then there's the gardeners that harvest their seeds from
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: the prior, from the season, you.
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: Know, Okay, keep their seed and.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: Then replant it. That's another level of gardening. I don't
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: do that. I'm a I'm a I'm a plant guy.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: Like I start from plant, sometimes start from seed. I've
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: never like had seeds and I carry them over the
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: next year. Yeah, have you No, No.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I've planted seeds from the get go, but didn't Maybe
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: the next year.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: Maybe when I'm retired, I'll do that. Have more time,
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: Like when I don't have kids in the house, I'll
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: probably do it because I think that's fun. It's fun
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: to do that, But I just don't. I do have
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: plants that just volunteer through my yard, of course without
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: me storing the seed or any They they just come up automatic.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: What did you do with the snake put in the canyon?
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: Good? Yeah, I have a good life.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh man, And we should have kept the little
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: lizard buddy that we found in the here? We found
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: what two inches in here? Yet?
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Was it? Was it a little alligated lizard?
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It reminded me of like a get go.
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: We don't have get Do we have gek? We don't.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: I don't think No.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: I don't think so either.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: Not.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Like sometimes you're going to a tropical vacation and you
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: get into your hotel room and.
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: You see them all over the walls, on the window
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: right when you walk into the room where the light
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: is just getting the bugs that are going towards the exactly.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: But yeah, so we've got you know, it's funny because
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: with this with the weather heating up, when I walk
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: down our sidewalks, you see like four or five lizards
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: just soaking up the sun. Got to get that blood going, Yeah,
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: full blooded creature's got.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: To get that warm bit moving. Exactly.
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: We've got a couple of minutes to the break.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, so we're gonna shut down. We're gonna restart our show,
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: and I start off. We've got a great chatter going
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: on of people that start their veggies or flowers from
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: seed or from plants and why. So we'll kind of
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: pick up on that topic at the next hour of
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: like you know, starting from seeds, starting from plant pros
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: and cons you know, and just kind of like and
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: you know, kind of be able to kind of expand
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: on that. So switching from summer heat.
• 38:13

  Speaker 12: Four and sunny all day nice and the same thing today.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: Because you know, it's a weird spot for me when
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: I was there to think like how much how many
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: different plants and how much grows there and how beautiful
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: it is. But I've always pictured it as being like cold,
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: and you know, like I thought it was going to
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: be like this, like you know, wintery area. But it's
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: but it's actually gorgeous and the winter is nice most
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: of the you know, a good portion of the year,
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: so they get to grow all those wonderful plants, right.
• 42:27
  Speaker 13: But you know, I asked one of the guys there
• 42:30
  Speaker 13: about the weather this last winter, and he said, not
• 42:34
  Speaker 13: even snow. So the wall winter with our snow. He said,
• 42:39
  Speaker 13: if it ever does snow, it melts right away.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:43
  Speaker 13: Well no, yeah, the lead's mount But you know what

  Speaker 13: life was Mountain World.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Oh I do always.
• 42:53
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I've always wanted to see that, and I always
• 42:56
  Speaker 13: wanted to grow one, but it's never in a spot
• 42:58
  Speaker 13: where I could.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: So beautiful to see that in bloom Yeah. And and
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: was the gardens busy because everybody kind of gets outside

• 43:11
  Speaker 3: active up there.

  Speaker 3: A peak behind the scenes exactly.
• 47:24
  Speaker 6: Let's see how much time we have left on this, uh,
• 47:26
  Speaker 6: this segment here, we've got about three minutes where we're good.
• 47:30
  Speaker 11: We're good, good, good good.
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: All right, if the audio is sounding good, I want
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: to kind of go back to our last hour. Let
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: me see if I can kill look at.
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: This, look at that better now, Okay, well it goes.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: My missing that's okay.
• 47:46
  Speaker 11: We know what I was.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: I was hustling to try to get John on.
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: I know, yeah, because he had no idea he was
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: gonna call.
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 47:52
  Speaker 6: So basically we had the the wrong things plugged into
• 47:57
  Speaker 6: the wrong inputs.
• 47:59
  Speaker 11: I want to make carefu how I say that she was.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: It was tiger.
• 48:03
  Speaker 11: Okay, we're back now.
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: Audio should be good.
• 48:05
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna keep us back on track here for the network.
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: And we're looking at a couple of minutes before the
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: next break.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: Okay, So here we are before the last break.
• 48:15
  Speaker 11: Before we last out, not last hour, but.
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: During the last hour or the first half of the show.
• 48:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: We we're talking about seeds plants for.
• 48:27
  Speaker 11: Your starting your vest, right, yeah? Do we do we
• 48:30
  Speaker 11: go with seeds?
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: Do we start with seeds? Do we start with a
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: small plant?
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah? And so people were commenting on how, you know,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: some people start from seeds, some people start from plant,
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: and so let's see here boom boom boom, oh start
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: on the reverse.
• 48:49
  Speaker 14: H I was going to say that, you know, we
• 48:56
  Speaker 14: talked about the true gardeners.
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: You know, over collect seeds, so you've run their prior
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: crops over winter them over whatever.
• 49:09
  Speaker 11: You don't do that, and you don't do now, but
• 49:11
  Speaker 11: you mean in the future.
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And I will say the benefit of starting from seed,
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: as you mentioned, was, you know, just just being able
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: to kind of have the plants that grew really well
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: for you and you have more control. Yeah, because you're starting.
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: It, you know.
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: And and if you pick out the strongest plant, in
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: the strongest fruit of what you had before, you're going
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: to get this consecutive good growth through the years of
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: you having these these tomato plants, cue, pepper plants, cucumbers.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: But it also gives you the ability to have unique
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: stuff that maybe you can't have. I'm a friend that
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: has a son and real interesting thing. He's selling all
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: the legos that went out of stock because he can't
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: get him anymore. So the value and that's kind of
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: like plants.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: And we'll touch a then after the break.
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, we're taking our first.
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: Break of our number two or the second half of
• 50:04
  Speaker 6: the show. Still working on some audio issues, but thank
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: you for joining us. It's Garden America, Bland Maintige, Pella
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: Fox back after these messages on biz Talk Radio.
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: We're back from the break.
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: It is Garden America going through all kinds of adjustments.
• 50:51
  Speaker 6: Everything's the same as far as it was last hour.
• 50:54
  Speaker 6: Who knows what's going on Gremblin's hour two. You know,
• 50:57
  Speaker 6: those are the guys that sneak into.
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: The board say your voice in the head fine is
• 51:02

• 51:13
  Speaker 3: I do like whoa, whoa, hey buddy sitting right next
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: to me here like that.
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: And then you have the late night FM voice exactly.
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: You go from the box jocks in the afternoon to.
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: The late evening or late evening. What was Yeah, Oh goodness,
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: I threw Tiger off. He's embarrassing and he's laughing and
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: he's smiling all at once.
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: But everything looks good there. The levels are good there
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: that you were not even you know, they used to.
• 51:36
  Speaker 6: Tell us it's okay if you if you, if you
• 51:39
  Speaker 6: pop into the red a little bit, just don't sustain it.
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: We're not even at the.
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: Red, No, we're Yeah. It might be something involving the
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: Facebook connection.
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: Anyway, as long as we can be understood and not annoying.
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I don't want to be annoying, you know,
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: maybe a little hot, but not annoying. That's a nice
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: pink cup. You like that. I came, I saw I
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: made it awkward. I don't even know where this came from,
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: but I did you speak it awkward? Though?
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll take a sip. Go ahead, Yeah, there you go.
• 52:11
  Speaker 6: Now we caught up on the questions and the comments
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: and all.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: That kind of stuff I did, and and that's what
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: I was trying to do, okays before, and we were
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: talking about the you know, in the last hour, you know,
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: the how many gardeners out there start their plants. This
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: is where Kevin kind of came in, and one expert said,
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: if you have a good organic source, starts our best
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: because of all the time and water you save. That's
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: a fun of gardening. So you know, you there's the
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: financial aspect of it.
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: You get a head start, you don't go through that
• 52:47
  Speaker 6: that early early growth process.
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, and then who else let's see here. The
• 52:56
  Speaker 3: other thing too, is like when you start from seed,
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: you're at risk of weather much more than a plant
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: because a seedling you tish exactly, and you one hot day,
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: one cold day out can just wipe it out where
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: if you start with a plant, eat a little bit
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: more leeway.
• 53:15
  Speaker 6: So when those even if you're gonna do seeds, you
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: start with multiple seeds and play the numbers game.
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: Well I lost three, but I have seven.
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but if you're planning ten, you've got to.
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: Put those seeds in different areas because you can't have
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: them all on the same spote otherwise they all die.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: You know, you gotta have like some on your.
• 53:33
  Speaker 11: Porch, you have some in the backyard.
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: You don't advocate death to plants, do we.
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: It's it's inevitable, it's natural. It's what's gonna happen, right,
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: so you know plants. Plants will come and go in
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: the garden. All right, Back to questions. Let's see plants
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: may come to long question from Tanya. I have some
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: lamium growing on my side patio finally really taking off
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: this year with so many buds. Then something ate all
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: the flowers. Then a couple of weeks ago I planted libullia,
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: so pretty good thing. I took a follow because one
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: morning I went out there, all the flowers have gone.
• 54:19
  Speaker 3: What the heck could be eating them? I don't think
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: it's snails, since there are no trails. I'm success suspecting rats,
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: so sad to see the little bare flowers stem sticking
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: up with no flowers.
• 54:32
  Speaker 4: So the actual flowers were eating.
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: These are the flowers, not the plant. Okay, it sounds
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: like are.
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: We talking deer country?
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: Are there deer I was gonna say, most like flower
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: eating deer right, Rabbits usually eat foliage and then rats
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: like leaves, right anything, I know that. Yeah, but yeah,
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: so I mean I I in the over nine like this,
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: Well that sounds very rat Kanya. Are you in deer country?
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: Can that be? I mean, but most people that are
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: in deer country know this. All you know, because it
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: would bes is this is always a problem. You know,
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: it's always a problem for them. So it's buds, flower
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: spikes that are being eaten.
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: I say, put a camera out there.
• 55:19
  Speaker 6: I mean, well, if you really want to know, little
• 55:22
  Speaker 6: camera at night, you know, mm hmm.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: But you know, then she mentioned snails, and you know,
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: like you said that that would be more in the foliage.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: And we talked about like snails are going to have
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: holes in the and then they're going to see the tracks.
• 55:36
  Speaker 6: And then sometimes you can tell you can differentiate is
• 55:39
  Speaker 6: the leaf being eaten from you know, the middle out
• 55:43
  Speaker 6: or you know, from the you know, from the sides,
• 55:45
  Speaker 6: from the.
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: Edge, or sewing insect like a grasshopper or a caterpillar
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: usually eats from the edge. Snails and slugs usually eat
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: in the middle, right, you know. So telling you about
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: San Jose houses all around owned. So I'm gonna sayhood,
• 56:02
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it's your neighbor.
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he is eating your plants.
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: No, I'm going to say it's a critter. It's going
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: to be some kind of like rat, mouse, some kind
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: of critter like that is what's happening there. That's that's
• 56:14
  Speaker 3: what it sounds like to me, Tanya and some Leonora wrote,
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: there all my cherries. What does that mean, Leonora? Birds? Maybe? Oh?
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: Leonora wrote, they ate all my cherries? Okay, birds maybe
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: birds are a possibility. But I think it's going to
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: be more because it's happening to be.
• 56:38
  Speaker 11: You know, nocturnal.
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a rat or a mouse. John, what is your
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: recommendation for best plants to climb and cover a stucco
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: covered wall? So this is a contentious topic, right, like
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: growing a plant on a stucco wall work.
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: For a year, and then years later if you take
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: it down, you can see the imprint.
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: Of or damage you're stuck pertically if you do want
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: the best too. One is ivy, the ohther one is
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: creeping fig Ycus repens. So those are your top two
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: wall covering plants.
• 57:18
  Speaker 4: A lot the difference between the IVY and the other.
• 57:21
  Speaker 6: Okay, here the one you suggested positives and negatives, good
• 57:24
  Speaker 6: or bad?
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: Okay, So the ivy. Positive for the IVY is that
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: it comes in a wide range of looks, like you
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: can get variegated, large leaf, small leaf, all of that
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: kind of stuff. Negative to the IVY is it's a
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: bit more aggressive, aggressive and attaches a little bit more
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: than the Fycus repons. Negative of the vicers reapons is
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: that it's only one leaf, one color, one shape, kind
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: of a you know, you know this is this is
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: what you want. The option the the positives is that
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: it doesn't attach as much as the IVY, so you
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: can actually peel it away from the IVY a little
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: bit easier down the road.
• 58:12
  Speaker 4: Say that's what I would go with.
• 58:13
  Speaker 6: I mean, because you're talking about maintenance versus oh, what
• 58:16
  Speaker 6: kind of color, what kind of style or what you know?
• 58:18
  Speaker 6: So so I that's good. That's that's good to know.
• 58:21
  Speaker 6: And uh uh if you want less damage to your stucco,
• 58:24
  Speaker 6: because because one one day you may change your mind.
• 58:27
  Speaker 6: I didn't want this covering my stucco anymore.
• 58:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Kevin, question for me, tiger, is there a particular
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: section of the yard for bees to be attracted or
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: can bees go everywhere in the yard? So, Kevin, bees
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: are everywhere I have. I have a lot scattered through
• 58:45
  Speaker 3: my whole yard that attract bees, and so, yeah, they
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: go everywhere in the yard. I don't have one particular
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: zombek but and something. It was so funny. I don't
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: think we were alive, but there was a butterfly that
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: flew right up Brian and hit a second ago and
• 59:01
  Speaker 3: he caught it at the corner of his eye. Scared him.
• 59:04
  Speaker 4: I thought it was like a huge whatever coming through
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: the window.
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and so I have a lot of butterfly plants
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: and b plants scattered through the whole yard. So as
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: you're cruising the yard, you're kind of stamped everywhere.
• 59:15
  Speaker 6: We gotta take a break. Yeah, we have two more
• 59:17
  Speaker 6: segments coming up. The next segment, by the way, is
• 59:19
  Speaker 6: one of our longer ones. Plenty of time for questions, comments, mistakes,
• 59:23
  Speaker 6: over modulation, jumpy video, no jumpy video today.
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: And Tiger's gonna watch out here and get mad at me,
• 59:28
  Speaker 4: and you're.
• 59:28
  Speaker 6: Hey, you just jinxed it back after these fertil on
• 59:31
  Speaker 6: messages and others on Bistok Radio, this.
• 59:34
  Speaker 5: Is guard in America.
• 59:56
  Speaker 11: Okay, we are back from that break as we continue to.
• 59:59
  Speaker 6: Monitor the questions in the comments which we see on
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 6: the Facebook thread.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so we're still kind of on time. You're saying
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: about eating the flowers, you know, and like I said,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: I think it's a critter and you got to think
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: about what critters come out at night because it sounds
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: like that's when it's happening. Ra It's come out at
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: night exactly. So that's it. You know, when people are
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: thinking about a problem, you really do have to think
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: about a lot of aspects of it because you can say, oh,
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: it's this or that, but if you know what I mean,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: I think we talked about this, like where they released
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: mongos is to you know, get rid of the snakes.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: But you know, mongoose and longation had separate times that
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: they were active, so they didn't want to do it.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: What about what about squirrels. What when a schools acted.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 4: Well, no, I mean I mean, could she have a
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 4: squirrel problem?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it could be school you know, I mean we
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 6: you know, one day about a year ago, we looked
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 6: at in the patio. I'd never seen a squirrel and
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 6: there's a California ground squirrel up where the birds hitting
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 6: all the seeds. And it was like okay, and and
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 6: he was knocking stuff over, and you know, it became
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 6: one of his little stops along the way.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: Let's see, they're saying it was too loud.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 4: We're too lound or too hot, dropped it a little.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 6: Bit, okay, but there's a difference between being too loud
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: and being fuzzy scratchy and uh what we call over modulation.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: Dropped it a little bit, it's probably it's probably me, okay, Uh,
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: Kevin f I have a pond filled with water lettuce,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 3: and it attracts the bees to bring water back to
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: their nearby high They land on floating plants then take
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: the water back. What I don't know is whether they
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: also pollinate at the same time or invite their bee
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 3: friends to do so. That is one thing that people
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: do have to remember this time of years. Bees butterflies, birds,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: they need water sources through your garden.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 4: But if flies, birds and bees, the three bees, right.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: The three bees, yeah.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 9: Is.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: You know, but you do have to be kevercause you
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: also don't want to track the one m which mosquitoes.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: So you want to have that water source, but you
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: don't want it to be like standing waters discovering. You know,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: it's moving and all that. Then you shouldn't have a problem.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: But yeah, they do need to have a water source
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: for sure. Yeah. Sorry, I'm stuck on the I'm stuck
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: on the audio thing. I just got I don't just
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 3: got a Rachelle note saying that it was fuzzy, fuzzy.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: I don't know what's going on. I mean, okay, let's
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 4: do this. How about that there?
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: Huh? I don't know.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 6: Okay, you know again, everything is the same as it
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 6: was last hour. The only thing, the only thing we
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 6: did we brought John into the equation. He messed it
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 6: all and stuff in. He messed it all up. So
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 6: maybe maybe this was a little better. We're still there
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 6: on the screen.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: We can see the that's not going to do anything now.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: That turns us there we go. Yes, if you had
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: headphones on yeah, that was down before, so we will
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: see you know what, at least we're on the air. Yeah,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: you can't come in on the air in the air, yeah, Leonora.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: Oh yes, squirrels eat all day to reach food and
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: are very hungry. So yeah, Tanya San Jose eating the
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: flowers off of her plants. Squirrels, squirrels, rats.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: The first time we saw the squirrel, I thought he
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 6: would bolt. No, he just looked at me like can
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 6: I help you? Yeah, I'm like, don't.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 3: Mind me, don't mind me. Go ahead.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 4: The food's out there for you and the birds and
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 4: everybody else.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: That comes by. And they are so bold, like almost
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: like knocking on the windows saying, hey, I'm hungry, what
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: do you got it?
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: Rats were the same way, because we'd see like a
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: couple of rats and saying things. Look at you like,
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: is there gonna be any more of.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 4: This later on?
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 4: I go, yeah, put your order in now, what do
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: you want?
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 8: What do you want?
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 4: What do you want for tonight? For overnight?
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: Exactly? Oh wow? But I mean, you know, that just
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: is one the thing that kind of comes along with
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: gardening is the greater aspect of it, whether it's you know,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: we talked about the snakes, we talked about squirrels, rats
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 3: go for you know, and everything else. It's it's finding
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 3: that balance of what you have in your yard, sharing
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 3: a little bit with everyone. For yourself. You're going to
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: have to give some.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: Kind of overplant and just like the numbers game, what
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: is that?
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: What is that in church called your your tithe. It's
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: kind of like you're tithing of the garden.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 4: Exactly right, Yeah, we got to share a little bit,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 4: share a little.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 6: Bit of that, right, Well, you tithed for the the
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 6: excess for the critters, whatever critter is gonna come your way.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 6: We've all experienced it. Yeah, you wake up the next day,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 6: you go, what happened here? Well, what's like that?
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 3: That is dear? When when that happens in someone's garden,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: Usually when they come out and they're like all their
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: plants are just decimated, those are like deer. That's like
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 3: when the whole garden just got chewed up.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: You know, Rabbits can do a number two.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: They can you know, Yeah, let's see here filling a
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 3: bucket with water, but covering it with lettuce plants. Water
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: lettuce makes a place comfortable for bees to comfortably land
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: and get in the water. Have to change the water period.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 3: I'll get to avoid the mosquitoes. That's a good idea. Like,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 3: you know what's funny though, I don't know. I feel
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: like they a they outlawed water lettuce here in southern
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: California because it was it was an invasive species in
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: the water ways. It's a great plant, but it was
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: growing too much. And then Kevin, he's so funny because
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: this happens in my swimming pool all the time. Kevin,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: I get sad when I see a bee drowning in
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: a swimming pool. Yeah, so I try to save them
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: whenever possible. I guess the bees need a water source.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: Well, they do, because they come into our fountain all
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: the time. You know, I'll see three or four birds
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: drinking and a couple of bees and just like they're
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: hanging out, chit chatting with those bees too, if they do,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: if they need water.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: And I was actually talking with this topic customer earlier
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 3: this week because they had a beautiful landscape drip system,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 3: but there were just a few things that were a
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: little bit off about the whole landscape. And you know what,
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 3: we what I was able to determine from them is
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: that you know, drip systems are wonderful because they are
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 3: an efficient way to water, but they don't wash off
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: the plant. They don't wash off the soil. And also
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: those little puddles that are created from you know, overhead
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 3: watering don't exist. So bees, hummingbirds, butterflies, the three bees
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 3: don't have the water source around the landscape.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 4: Like they used to examin when it.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 3: Kind of naturally watered with an overhead sprinkler.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 6: So can you do a little both. You could do
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 6: a little bit, just just don't make sure it's not
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 6: too much. Yeah, just enough sprinkler exactly, so you know,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 6: I mean it's it's.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 3: Uh, you know, something to think about when you're installing
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 3: a landscape is a drip system isn't always the best.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 3: It's not always going to be the best.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 6: It's not going to be the water universal depending upon
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 6: what you're planting, what you have.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: So how you fertilized we talked about, Yeah, we talked
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: about granular fertilizer. The only way for granular fertilizer to
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 3: really work is when you water it in.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 4: But this is interesting because logan I says you don't
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 4: have to water it in. Yeah, but it still has
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 4: to see I do it anyway.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 3: I do it anyway.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: I sprinkle it, and I go, I'm not gonna water
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 4: it in, And then I go, I.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 3: Gotta water it does break down and get into the soil. Right,
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 3: get that?
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 6: But I know, I know, just against all all grains
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 6: of what you think is.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: Common sense, all grains, all grains of common sense, granules
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: of common ends.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: Oh that's funny. Let's see what other questions we have here.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: I have a couple of tops, a couple of tops
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 3: of anything. They are low and bees come to drink. Oh,
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: just like a couple Like yeah, they're talking about uh
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: bees again.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 4: Here's another slow bee death. Go you see one on
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 4: your windshield.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: And you go and it's and it's hanging on for
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: dear life.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 4: You drive along and it's still there.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 6: It doesn't come off, and you know it's like, dude,
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 6: you're probably many miles away from your hive. We just
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 6: drove twenty miles of my car. You're on the windshield.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 6: I don't know what your chances of survival are at
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 6: this point. I mean, it could be good, but you're
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 6: not going to join another hive, are you right?
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: How you're going to get all the way back.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is said, I know, to see the bees,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: especially after all the work they've.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 3: Done for us. Oh yeah, yeah, and continue to do
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: all the work. Right, we got about all you have
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 3: houses where we have all the cucumbers and things that
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: people are talking about. Yeah, rachelle a little bit better
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 3: on the audio. So we're making we're making proud.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 4: We've turned it. We've turned it to what we think
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 4: is uncomfortably low on the board.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 6: But you know, so so next week just have to
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 6: leave it like that and then when we come in,
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 6: we'll we'll go from here.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: There we go. Sounds good. Next week you and I again,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 3: because John is still going to be in Alaska. It's
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 3: a long trip.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a week. See he's see this is where
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: the fun begins. Yes, the garden was fun. He's boarding
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: that boat boat.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 3: I don't think. I don't think the fun begins for John.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 3: People love the garden, but I love.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 4: That first day on that ship, you know, just like Okay,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 4: here comes the adventure.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: You know, when we went to Alaska, I would get
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: up early in the morning because you'd see dolphins, we
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: see whales, you see all the early Morning Life. We're
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: gonna take a break. We have one more segment coming up.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: All right, so some like it hot, so this is
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: this is this relates to two things.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 4: The weather, yeah, and the show and the and the
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: audio being too hot, too hot. So there you go.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 4: All right, we're gonna take a break for BIS Talk Radio.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 3: One more segment coming up.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 6: This is Garden America back after these messages for you
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 6: on BIS talk just like that their back Facebook Life
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 6: didn't even know we took a break. It was less
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 6: than a second. We took a break, came right back
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 6: so quick, so coot.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: Not like the soccer games where they're taking the water
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: breaks and now the games are dragging on. Did you
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 3: hear about that?
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 4: Well no, I thought that doesn't it's a continuous clock running,
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 4: isn't it.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 3: Well, but they took what they have to take water
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 3: breaks right now because of the heat and elevation.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 4: Could they stop the clock?
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 3: Well, good question, because soccer's continue. They add it like
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 3: they stoppage time. They could your right at it, your
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 3: vompage time. That's why there's like seven minutes of stoppage
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: time or whatever it is. Yeah, that's happening right now.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 3: John's in the middle of it, Vancouver.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 4: Vancouver, rep.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: And Turkey's Los Angeles, Guadalajada, Mexico City. Back east, they're
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: in Tampa, the Tampa Bay.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 4: Are they Tampa Bay?
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 11: Tampa Bay.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 3: Is New York. I don't think New York has any games.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: Kansas City truly a World Cup. Yeah, there's Toronto and Vancouver.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: That would make sense. Two cities make a lot of sense.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 2: Not Montreal, though, I don't think so.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 3: I think it's the two places in Canada, two places
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: in Mexico, and then I think like four places in
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: San Francisco area. I think gets some games. So I
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: think it's like San Francisco, Los Angeles, Los Angelests, City
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: of Angels, and then some I don't know. It's all over,
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: but it's gonna be all over the TV for the
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: next three weeks or whatever. It's crazy right now, NBA Finals,
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: World Cup and Stanley Cup, you know what, Stanley Cup
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 3: all at the same time.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 6: We're not going to get in into the weeds here.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 6: But the game when you texted me was such a
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 6: good game. I mean, if you never saw hockey that
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 6: was a game, then you thought, well, they're down for
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 6: to nothing. There's no way they're gonna win, are.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 4: You kidding me?
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: And the one guy scored three goals, Mitch Marner got
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: a hat trick. And anyway, that's a Vegas and Carolina.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 3: Do you know what six goals in a game is?
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 4: What's a double hat trick?
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: They call you know what? You don't know what it is?
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 4: By what?
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: By one person? Yeah, it doesn't happen in hockey. It
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: happens in lacrosse. Okay, okay, now we're talking what is it?
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 3: A sock trick? What sock? So you know, sock trick,
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: a hat trick For those of you that don't know sports,
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: a hat trick.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 4: Is three goals in a game, right by one by
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 4: one person.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: And the hat trick comes because they take their hat
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 3: off to the player right, and they would throw them
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: onto into the ice.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 6: Right, and then you got to clean up the ice.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 6: So you got a sock trick in lacrosse.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: With six goals one player in a game and they
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 3: take off their socks and they throw them on the
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: on the So.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 6: The difference between the two game, you're more likely to
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 6: score six goals in lacrosse.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, there's like twelve to them than you are what's
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: a high scoring game in hockey?
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 2: And hockey with a high scoring game would be like
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 2: six to one or yeah, six five, seven to five.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: Usually it's three two, four, one five four. Yeah, And
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 4: we've gone off the track again.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: See, people don't know that we do another whole sports
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: show on the side during the week.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 4: We just don't tell people. And then and then we
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 4: drift off talking about gardening.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: Sports America and America. Can you get back to sports?
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 4: You keep talking gardening.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: That would be so funny if that was the truth,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 3: If if we did a sports show where we talked.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: Guard we because we could talk about the grass in sports,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: right football, and that's a big topic right now. And
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 2: then we get and you well, if you know what
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: to keep the grass looking better, you know we've got
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: to you know, how different fields have got the artificial grass.
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: You've got the stadium grass over in Phoenix where they
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: it's real grass.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but how foot you know, Soccer players like the
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 3: grass one way, and football players like the grass another way.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: Baseball players like the grass another way, and.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: Different Baseball is interesting because at different stadiums, they grow
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: the grass longer or shorter, depending upon who they want
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: to give the advantage to all right, we gotta do that.
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 4: We got to get back to the garden. We got
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: to end the show talking gardening.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: But we have been we're talking grass, right, so we're
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: we're sports. We're melting the two worlds.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: So what the to do in Arizona is it's real grass.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: So when they're done with the game, then they roll
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: it back outside, right because it's indoors.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: Same in Vegas. Do the same thing, Same thing in Vegas,
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: same thing. And what kind of grass? What's that stadium
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: in Europe? The zero they do that, they're the same thing.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: So what would you suggest, what do you well, how
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: much do you know about the kind of grass that
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: does well taking that much abuse in sports?
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 6: So I know for football, because people may want to
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 6: know this for their backyard they have kids playing.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so for football NFL, they use a lot of fascues.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: Like they like we talked about they like it a
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: little longer, right, you know with football you want traction,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: harder pivot. So they want a softer turf, a little
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: bit more grass, and it takes a little bit of
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: abuse and they don't and they don't mind, Like you're
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: not moving a ball through like the grass in football, right, it's.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 4: Because you're carrying it.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: It's form for pivot and for like movement in soccer,
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 3: because you're kicking a ball all across the grass. They
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 3: need that ball to keep moving. They don't want to
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: just stop. So small shorter like Ermuto grass, and it tolerates,
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 3: you know, a lot more traffic because also you know
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: the action of kicking and all of that movement tears
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: up the grass a lot more. But they keep it shorter.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: But you'll see during a soccer match they'll water the
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 3: grass between like halves and things like that. And the
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: reason why they water the grass is because they don't
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: want it to firm, because you know you're falling on it.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 3: Number one. Number two, you need to pivot. Pivot, you
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 3: need to move. The ball needs to move across it,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: so they need to just they'll water the grass to
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: keep it so.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 4: So watering the grass actually helps the ball move well.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 3: It keeps the ground soft and it keeps it so
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: the players can move better through it. In baseball, you know,
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: it's about those ground ball right, how they come across
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: the the infield versus the outfield, and they like that
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: and and you know they want a firmer grass, so
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 3: you don't see them watering it in between you know,
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 3: innings or anything like that. They want it to kind
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 3: of bounce off.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 4: They do. They do water the infield like fifth inning.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they water the water the decomposed granite that
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: they put on the infield and stuff like that too,
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 3: the clay. So yeah, there's a whole science to it,
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: you know. And and you know, I mean, it's it's true, it.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 6: Doesn't it's interesting too, how how people come up with that,
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 6: how they over the years, how they've they've realized.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: What works best for what sport.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so we have exactly a minute till we
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: say goodbye for this week, exactly.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: And and Lenora mentioned also that players do not like
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 3: artificial and it is true they don't. They hate art
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: It's hard.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 6: Injuries, it's hard, it's hot to knee injuries because pivoting
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 6: and stuff.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 3: There's no give for the most part, you know, so
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 3: no nor jumping in there in professional sports. They do
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: not like artificial turf at all. I think artificial turf
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 3: became popular in like youth, high school, and college. It's
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: costs like cost turf costs money.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's gonna do it.
