This week, Jonathan is collecting birch water from his property, an early form of spring gardening as Jeff mentions.
Later, they discuss how to prepare greenhouse soil to ensure it can support healthy plants. Jeff suggests adding things like fertilizer, compost, and warm water to the soil.
Finally, they address listener questions about Korean Natural Farming (KNF) and the use of coffee in gardening.
