We learn how to control your bamboo, we learn about plants that are fire resistant, we show you how to tell when your pears are ripe, we see a facility that takes cow manure and make it into power and garden mulch. We show you plants and products that repeal mosquitoes, and we tour a soy sauce factory where they make something tasty out of soy, wheat and salt.
I also found a long interview with someone from Texas A&M University about building gardens at the university. It's only audio with stills pictures though.
And Silence, ça pousse ! is still in holiday mode. This time items about basket weaving, lights for growing plants, and they revisit a garden where they solved a problem in the past.
Saturday again, and that means Gardening Australia.
This is in today's show.
