    All about voles Apr 26, 2024
    Show notes

    This week, Jeff and Jonathan received numerous questions about voles and the damage they cause. Did you know that voles take refuge between the snow and ground during winter? They even create intricate tunnels equipped with kitchens, sleeping areas, and more. However, they can cause significant damage to your lawn, although they usually leave the roots intact.

    Jeff highlights two harmful types of voles: those that can withstand water, and those that inhabit the tops of trees.

    Later, the conversation shifts to seeds. Springtime in Alaska is an excellent time to start planting your seeds, especially indoors. However, there are specific types of seeds, such as peas and certain beans, that can be planted outdoors right now.

    Lastly, the team addresses several listener questions, including one about using coffee grounds in the garden.

    Should you sterilize your soil? Apr 05, 2024
    Show notes

    This week, Jeff and Jonathan discuss the inundation of gardening misinformation on the internet, particularly the widespread myth that soil should be sterilized.

    On the other hand, the best way to improve soil is by adding compost. Seeds naturally have everything they need to grow and protect themselves, which we can see in nature.

    Following the break, they explore some wood frog science, examining a recent scientific article suggesting wood frogs are developing salt tolerance.

    Finally, they tackle a set of listener questions, with topics spanning from compost to grasshoppers!

    Spring garden chores Mar 08, 2024
    Show notes

    This week, Jeff and Jonathan are celebrating the longer spring days in Alaska. However, the warming sun has them thinking about the impacts of global warming.

    They kick off this week's episode by discussing recent scientific studies, which warn that global warming could threaten the survival of dung beetles.

    Next, they explore various natural indicators that signal when it's safe to plant outdoors (and indoors). In Alaska, the size of birch tree leaves serves as a reliable clue! Jeff also emphasizes that now is an ideal time to complete springtime tasks, such as cleaning up after your dog, shoveling snow around greenhouse entrances, and more.

    Finally, they answer a listener's question on composting.
