This week, Jeff and Jonathan are enjoying the Alaskan spring sunshine. This means it's time to place those seedlings and plants on window sills - remember to rotate the pots!
In the spirit of spring, it's an ideal time to purchase and plant seeds. They share tips on maximizing your seeds' potential, which begins with reading the instructions on the packet. Additionally, if you're buying from a rack, ensure you're purchasing this year's seeds.
After the break, they provide advice on what to plant at this time, focusing on tomatoes.
As usual, they conclude with a question from a listener.
Catch all this and more on this week's episode of Teaming with Microbes!
