Podcasts about Mulch

Ah Autumn Bliss. Its been a long old summer of heat and drought - and though that may be great for those of us visiting the beach, our gardens (especially in the south) have taken a hammering. Gardening hasn't been much fun either. So its nice to get to the cooler and moister end of the year and enjoy the 'mellow fruitfulness' that will surround us for a few months. And as gardens we prepare for the winter, its a lovely time of year just to take a stroll into the garden, cup of tea in hand and revel in the the changing angle of the sun and the light that just makes the garden seem so magical at this time of year. But as a dedicated gardener don't spend to long dawdling - there still plenty of work to be done in the garden and time waits for no person!Finally Lucy and Saul are in the same room, if not in the correct counties to snatch a bit of time together to catch up and resume the #HortiWaffle. Saul has still be on his travels catching up on Hedychium trials, Plant Heritage work and enjoying the countryside of the British Isles from various train windows. Lucy has been enjoying a little more of the normal 'local' work with plenty of Autumn mulch to prepare and Chocolate Custard Creams to consume - isn't it nice to have a little normality back!Instagram links:Saul plantsmansaulLucy lucychamberlaingardensIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

In this Episode - What if the key to growing healthier, more productive gardens isn't more fertilizer, but healthier living soil? Ben Lederer, co-founder of Regenerative Soil Company in North Phoenix, joins Greg to explore how compost, worm castings, mulch, and beneficial biology can transform the soil beneath your garden. You'll learn simple ways to start composting, use kitchen scraps and chickens to build a regenerative cycle, and improve your soil while reducing reliance on synthetic inputs. Ben and Greg also share practical ideas for taking one small step toward a healthier garden and a more resilient community.Our Guest: Ben is the co-founder of Regenerative Soil Company, a small batch amendment company based in North Phoenix. A longtime gardener, chicken keeper, and compost enthusiast, Ben is passionate about helping people grow healthier plants naturally through worm castings, regenerative gardening practices, and living soil biology. He also works in turf grass management and enjoys teaching practical, approachable ways to build healthy soil at homeKey TopicsBen LedererRegenerative Soil CompanyWorm castingsLiving soil biologyRegenerative gardeningCompostingGreen mulch and cowpeasChickens and backyard food systemsLocal soil amendmentsTurf grass and soil managementPermaculture and closed-loop gardeningArizona Worm FarmCommunity gardeningThe Worm Farmer's HandbookKey Questions AnsweredHow did Ben Lederer get into regenerative gardening and soil health?Ben grew up watching his parents garden and became fascinated by how plants grow. His experience in landscaping and turf grass management eventually led him to question conventional practices and look for ways to build healthier soil naturally. What are worm castings, and why are they useful in the garden?Worm castings are worm-processed organic material that contains microbes and nutrients. Ben describes them as a gentle organic fertilizer that can help plants grow stronger and handle environmental stress, while Greg shares his experience using them to reduce heat and transplant stress. What are some natural ways to improve garden soil?Ben recommends compost, worm castings, mulch, and green mulch. These practices can add organic matter, support soil biology, retain moisture, moderate soil temperature, and improve conditions for future plantings. How can cowpeas function as green mulch?Cowpeas help cover the soil, keep it cooler, and contribute nitrogen through their relationship with soil biology. At the end of the season, Ben recommends cutting the plants down and leaving the roots in the soil so they decompose in place. How can a beginner start composting at home?Ben says the simplest approach is to establish a compost pile in an appropriate area of the yard. A basic compost system needs a balance of nitrogen-rich “greens” and carbon-rich “browns,” along with moisture and occasional turning. How can gardeners get enough green material for compost?Ben suggests building relationships with neighbors and offering to collect their kitchen scraps. Providing neighbors with a five-gallon bucket gives them an easy way to contribute food waste while helping the gardener build compost. How do chickens, compost, and gardening form a regenerative cycle?Chickens can eat kitchen scraps, produce manure for the compost pile, and help turn and work through compost. The resulting compost feeds the garden, which produces more food and food scraps, creating a useful cycle between animals, compost, soil, and plants. Why does Ben emphasize buying soil amendments locally?Ben says local compost and soil products are more likely to retain active microbial life because they have not spent long periods sitting on a store shelf. He encourages gardeners to seek out local compost and soil producers. What does Ben see as the role of competition among local worm farms?Ben views other worm farms as potential complements rather than competitors. He believes there is ample demand for locally produced worm castings and that collaboration can help more gardeners succeed. What did Ben learn from personal setbacks?Ben describes rebuilding his life after struggling with drugs and alcohol as a teenager and young adult. He says the experience taught him resilience, responsibility, and accountability, and that those lessons now influence how he approaches agriculture and business. What book does Ben recommend for people interested in vermicomposting?He recommends The Worm Farmer's Handbook by Rhonda Sherman, particularly for its detailed treatment of vermicomposting and producing worm castings at a larger scale. Key TakeawaysWorm castings provide organic matter, nutrients, and microbial life for the garden.Composting kitchen scraps can reduce waste while building healthier soil.Mulch helps protect soil from heat and moisture loss.Cowpeas can provide living ground cover and leave valuable roots in the soil after the growing season.Chickens can become part of a closed-loop backyard food system.Building relationships with neighbors can solve the challenge of sourcing compost ingredients.Local soil amendments can help gardeners access fresher, biologically active materials.Gardening success comes from learning, experimenting, and accepting that some plants will fail.Ben sees collaboration among local producers as a way to strengthen gardening communities.Small actions, such as starting a compost pile, can contribute to stronger communities.Episode HighlightsBen describes growing up fascinated by backyard gardening and eventually bringing together his experiences in gardening, landscaping, and turf grass management. Worm castings are introduced as a low-risk organic fertilizer rich in microbial life. Compost, worm castings, and mulch form the foundation of Ben's approach to improving soil naturally. Cowpeas can cover large areas, cool the soil, contribute nitrogen, and leave decomposing roots behind when cut down. Ben explains how chickens, compost, gardens, food scraps, and eggs can work together as a backyard regenerative cycle. Ben shares how his personal recovery taught him resilience and accountability and shaped his approach to building a regenerative business. Ben discusses why he sees Arizona Worm Farm as a complement rather than a competitor and why local worm-casting production matters. Ben's final advice: pursue your dreams, start small, get your hands dirty, and recognize that individual actions can make a difference.

Pure frequency, tasty players, and abandoning thyself. Tristan Lacombe (Population II) "Population II is a band dedicated to its disengagement, constantly working on refining their imposing, yet unpretentious sound. A trio consisting of singer/drummer Pierre-Luc Gratton, guitarist/keyboardist Tristan Lacombeand bassist Sébastien Provençal, Population II are masters at both improvised madness and sophisticated composition, delivering heavy psychedelic rock infused with feverish funk rhythms, a hint of jazz philosophy, a burst of energy reminiscent of punk's early days, and a love of minor scales that harkens back to the roots of heavy metal. Their sources of inspiration are diverse and not limited to music: the Detroit garage rock and psychedelic funk scenes of the late 60s, the Canterbury scene of the same period, the German experimental rock of the 70s, and Miles Davis' eclectic era collide, bound together by the swampy decor of their hometown of Pointe-Calumet and, above all, by the deep friendship and undeniable chemistry emerging from its three members. The roots of Population II go back a long way and are inextricably linked to its members' teenage memories. After years of jamming to the point of developing a sense of telepathy, the trio began recording a handful of independent releases that soon caught the attention of the independent label Castle Face Records. Thus was born À la Ô Terre, released in 2020. They returned in 2023 with their sophomore album Électrons libres du québec, this time released on Bonsound. A little more straightforward than its predecessor, the record reflects a natural progression of the sound the trio established on their previous releases, showing a sharp sense of songcraft and the undeniable expertise of their instruments. On a creative spree, Population II struck again the following year with their EP Serpent Échelle in the spring, and a split EP with local punk act Mulch in the fall. With this prolific sequence of releases, the band laid the groundwork for Maintenant Jamais, a third full-length album on which they stir up their various formative influences with sophistication, resulting in fourteen catchy, transgressive tracks. Released in March 2025, the album was shortlisted for the Polaris Music Prize the same year. Although Population II has kept busy touring internationally, sometimes supporting bands such as OSEES, SLIFT, and Frankie and the Witch Fingers, and playing at festivals like Levitation and Hipnosis, their creativity remains just as strong. After teaming up with You Doo Right and Nolan Potter to release the collective, improvised effort You II avec Nolan Potter in the fall of 2025, they return this spring with Gimmicks, a new EP that predominantly features keyboards and synthesizers."

Well, howdy neighbors! Fred Talley here again from Faith Pest Control, right here in the heart of Jasper, Georgia. Now, if you read my last article about those nasty warning signs, you know that pests can cause some serious, expensive headaches in our beautiful mountain homes. But today, I want to talk about how we can stop those critters before they ever get a foothold inside your house. Living up here in Pickens County, we are surrounded by beautiful woods, red clay, and plenty of moisture. That means we have to be proactive. I always tell folks that pest control isn’t just about what we spray; it's about changing the environment so bugs don’t want to live there in the first place. To make it easy for you, I've put together a simple, straight-to-the-point Homeowner's Pest Control Checklist. Walk around your house this weekend and check these off, and you’ll save yourself a whole lot of grief. 1. The Perimeter & Foundation (The First Line of Defense) Your foundation wall is ground zero for pests—especially termites and ants. [ ] Maintain a 6-inch clearance: Make sure there is at least 6 inches of clear foundation visible between the ground and the start of your siding. If dirt or mulch is piled up against your siding, it's an open invitation for subterranean termites to tunnel right in without being seen. [ ] Keep mulch away from the walls: Mulch holds moisture like a sponge. Keep it pulled back at least a foot from your foundation. Better yet, use pine straw or crushed stone right against the house. [ ] Trim the greenery: Tree limbs, shrubs, and ivy should never touch your roof or siding. They act like a highway bridge directly onto your home for carpenter ants, squirrels, and mice. Trim them back at least 2 feet. 2. Moisture Control (What Pests Crave Most) Bugs don’t just come inside for food; most of the time, they are looking for water. [ ] Check the gutters and downspouts: Clean those gutters out! Blocked gutters cause water to back up, rotting your fascia boards (the wood behind the gutter). Roof rats and wood-boring beetles love soft, rotted wood. Make sure downspouts carry water at least 3 feet away from your foundation. [ ] Inspect the crawlspace or basement: If you have a dirt crawlspace, it needs a proper vapor barrier. High humidity under your house leads to wood rot, which attracts termites like crazy. Look for standing water or leaking pipes under there, too. [ ] Fix outdoor spigots: A dripping outdoor faucet creates a constant puddle that feeds entire colonies of ants and mosquitoes. Replace those washers! 3. Exclusion (Locking the Doors) If there's a hole the size of a dime, a mouse can squeeze through it. If it’s the size of a pencil lead, an insect can get past. [ ] Check door sweeps and weatherstripping: Turn off the lights inside and look at your exterior doors during the day. Can you see daylight peeking through the bottom or sides? If light can get in, a bug can too. Replace worn-out sweeps. [ ] Seal utility penetrations: Look where your AC lines, water pipes, and electrical wires enter the side of your house. Use silicone caulk or stainless steel mesh (like copper stuff fit for stuffing holes) to seal up any gaps around those pipes. [ ] Screen your vents: Ensure your attic vents, crawlspace vents, and chimney caps have intact, heavy-duty wire mesh screens to keep out squirrels, raccoons, and bats. 4. Food & Waste Management (Removing the Rewards) Don’t make it easy for them to throw a party at your expense. [ ] Secure the trash cans: Use heavy-duty bins with tight-fitting lids. Wash them out occasionally with bleach water so the smell doesn’t attract midnight visitors like raccoons or bears. [ ] Don’t leave pet food out: Feeding Fido or your outdoor cats on the porch? Don’t leave the bowls full overnight. That's a free buffet for opossums, rats, and ants. [ ] Store firewood properly: Never stack firewood against the house or inside your garage. Keep it elevated off the ground and stacked at least 20 feet away from your home. Only bring in what you’re going to burn right then. Fred's Honest Truth: You can do everything on this checklist perfectly, and because we live in the North Georgia woods, some determined pests are still going to try their luck. That's where a professional protective barrier comes in. Look, I want to be YOUR BUG MAN! I don’t want to just be a guy you call when things go wrong; I want to help you protect your biggest investment year-round. If you want a professional set of eyes on your property, give me a shout. I offer an unmatched personal guarantee: If you use Faith Pest Control and you aren’t completely satisfied within 30 days, I'll come back out and treat it again for FREE until you are. If you're still not happy, I'll give you a full refund plus an extra $25.00 for wasting your time. Give us a call or a text at 770-823-9202 to set up your FREE Complete Termite and Pest Inspection. We will do a full audit of your home and tell you exactly where your vulnerabilities are. (And don’t forget—tell us you read this article, and I’ll knock $25.00 OFF your first service!)

Humankind has risen far above the nasty marshes and bubbling swamps of our natural beginnings. We have created order and society and cleanliness. And pleasant smells. Nature, on the other hand, is smelly. Our own bodies disgust us with their odors. So we made fragrant soaps and deodorants and eau de toilette. We created Time-Release-air-Fresheners and Bubblegum Vapes. But we still need our crops to grow and so we need fields covered in cow dung. So when we don’t like natural odors, but we want to decorate our parks in nature, we need to bring something natural and fertilizing into our pristine neighborhoods. Let’s dig a little deeper, with Mat and Veronique, as we break down the rotting decay of fresh Mulch! *Grumbles are specifically off-the-cuff, no research went into this grumble. _____________________________________ Support the show and become a Grumble Kid!

Mulch is one of the highest-return investments you can make in your vegetable garden and yet most gardeners are using whatever happens to be available rather than whatever would actually work best for their situation. In this episode, we dig into the full lineup of organic mulches—straw, shredded leaves, wood chips, pine needles, grass clippings, and compost—as well as a shorter look at inorganic options like landscape fabric and black plastic. For each type, you'll learn how well it suppresses annual, perennial, and invasive weeds, how it handles moisture retention and heavy rainfall, how to apply it correctly, and what drawbacks to watch for in terms of pests, availability, and cost. The bottom line: any mulch is better than bare soil. But the right mulch for your garden depends on your weed pressure, your climate, your crops, and your situation—and by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to make that call. Let's dig in! Mulch Quick Reference Best for annual weed suppression: Straw, wood chips, black plastic Best for moisture retention: Wood chips, straw, compost Best for slopes and heavy rain areas: Pine needles, wood chips Best for soil building: Compost, shredded leaves Best free options: Shredded leaves, grass clippings (herbicide-free), arborist chips Best for soil warming: Black plastic Avoid in vegetable gardens long-term: Landscape fabric References: Warnall School of Forestry and Natural Resources - Black Walnut Allelopathy: Tree Chemical Warfare: openscholar.uga.edu/record/22964/files/Walnut Allelopathy 11-10.pdf Horticultural Sciences Department, University of Florida, Gainesville - Evaluation of Allelopathic Potential of Wood Chips for Weed Suppression in Horticultural Production Systems: ashs.org/hort/hort/published/rest/pdf-watermark/v1/journals/hortsci/40/3/article-p711.pdf/watermark-pdf/ University of Minnesota Extension — Mulching in the Home Garden: extension.umn.edu Penn State Extension — Mulches for the Home Landscape: extension.psu.edu NC State Extension Gardener Handbook — Mulching chapter: content.ces.ncsu.edu University of Illinois Extension — Wood Chip Mulch: Landscape Boon or Bane: extension.illinois.edu Cornell Cooperative Extension — Grass Clippings as Mulch: gardening.cornell.edu University of Tennessee Extension — Using Leaves as Mulch and Compost: extension.tennessee.edu Iowa State University Extension — Plastic Mulch in the Vegetable Garden: yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu Michigan State University Extension — Landscape Fabric: Is It Really Worth It: canr.msu.edu ChipDrop (free arborist chips): getchipdrop.com Resources: Just Grow Something: https://justgrowsomething.com Gardening Courses: https://justgrowsomething.com/courses Just Grow Something Merch and Downloads: https://justgrowsomething.com/shop Just Grow Something Gardening Friends Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18YgHveF5P/ Check out how you can become a patron on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/JustGrowSomething Feed my coffee habit: https://buymeacoffee.com/justgrowsomething Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/justgrowsomething Get 10% off and FREE shipping on my favorite raised planters at Planter Box Direct using code JUSTGROW10: https://planterboxdirect.com/?ref=593 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Mulch, Mulch & More Mulch 

Landscape designer Tony Murrell from Murrell Designs is with me now to talk about how you can make mulches from Autumn's dropped debris even when you don't have lots of equipment. [picture id="4JPTSJ0_Tony_Murrell_jpg" crop="16x10" layout="full"]

A listener asked for a deep dive on dahlias and I'm delivering, from the ground up (pun intended). But we're not stopping there. In this episode, I'm covering the full world of spring-planted bulbs: dahlias, gladiolus, cannas, calla lilies, and tuberous begonias. You'll learn when and how to plant them, how to grow them for maximum blooms, how to cut them for the vase (because that's half the fun), and, critically, how to handle end-of-season care based on where you live. If you're in a warmer zone, some of these can stay in the ground. If you're in a colder zone like me, we're digging them up, curing them, storing them, and doing it all again in the spring. Let's dig in! Quick-Reference: Zone-Based Overwintering Guide Zone 9-10+: Leave everything in the ground. Mulch lightly after frost. Let plants rest and re-emerge in spring. Zone 8: Cannas and callas can stay with heavy mulch. Dahlias and glads: consider digging, especially in colder parts of the zone. Zone 7: Mulching is a gamble. Reliable: dig dahlias and glads. Cannas may survive with very heavy mulch in milder Zone 7. Zone 6 and colder: Dig everything. Cure properly. Store in cool, dry, dark, frost-free conditions. Replant after soil warms to 60°F in spring. Bloom Timing and Vase Life at a Glance Dahlias — Bloom: midsummer to first hard frost | Vase life: 5–8 days | Zone to leave in ground: 9+ Gladiolus — Bloom: ~70–90 days after planting | Vase life: 7–10 days | Zone to leave in ground: 8+ (with mulch) Cannas — Bloom: midsummer to frost | Vase life: 4–7 days | Zone to leave in ground: 8+ (with mulch) Calla Lilies — Bloom: summer | Vase life: 10–14 days | Zone to leave in ground: 8–9+ depending on type Tuberous Begonias — Bloom: summer all season | Vase life: 3–5 days | Zone to leave in ground: 9+ References University of Minnesota Extension — Dahlias: From Garden to Vase. extension.umn.edu University of Missouri Extension — Growing Dahlias (G6600). extension.missouri.edu NC State Extension Gardener Toolbox — Dahlia pinnata. plants.ces.ncsu.edu Colorado State University Extension — Dahlias, Fact Sheet 7.418. extension.colostate.edu Iowa State University Extension — Gladiolus for the Home Garden (PM 874). extension.iastate.edu University of Florida IFAS Extension — Gladiolus Production. edis.ifas.ufl.edu University of Illinois Extension — Canna Lily in the Garden. web.extension.illinois.edu Michigan State University Extension — Digging and Storing Tender Bulbs. canr.msu.edu University of Vermont Extension — Storing Tender Bulbs Over Winter. uvm.edu USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map (2023). planthardiness.ars.usda.gov Just Grow Something: https://justgrowsomething.com Gardening Courses: https://justgrowsomething.com/courses Just Grow Something Merch and Downloads: https://justgrowsomething.com/shop Just Grow Something Gardening Friends Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18YgHveF5P/ Check out how you can become a patron on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/JustGrowSomething Feed my coffee habit: https://buymeacoffee.com/justgrowsomething Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/justgrowsomething Get 10% off and FREE shipping on my favorite raised planters at Planter Box Direct using code JUSTGROW10: https://planterboxdirect.com/?ref=593 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week on Down the Garden Path, Joanne explains why mulch matters in the garden, how to choose the right kind, and why proper mulching can make a big difference for your soil, plants, and trees. Mulch is Practical, Not Decorative Mulch should support the garden, not steal the show. Its real purpose is to help control weeds, keep soil cooler, retain moisture, and gradually break down to add nutrients back into the garden. Quality Matters When Choosing Mulch Natural mulch is a better choice than dyed bagged mulch. Dyed mulch can fade, stain, blow around, and may be made from lower-quality wood waste. Consider more natural options like composted pine, shredded bark, hemlock, wood chips, or even compost for smaller gardens.  Mulching Trees and Using Alternatives Wisely Use the "3-3-3 method" for mulching around trees: three inches deep, three feet wide, and a three-inch gap away from the trunk. Avoid creating mulch volcanoes and consider alternatives like shredded leaves and living "green mulch" groundcovers, including creeping thyme, sedums, sweet woodruff, epimedium, and wild ginger.

This week, from the screen porch, Mary Stone shares reflections on edible versus ornamental rhubarb—both unusual, delightful, and deer-resistant additions to the garden. She also shares stories of rhubarb custard pie, overwintered parsley, blooming tea, pole beans, and other decorative vegetables woven among flower gardens.The episode wraps up with reflections on healing through friendship and community. And the garden lessons found in allowing others to help us through difficult seasons of life.

A weeping cherry tree begins to “bleed,” revealing what lies beneath—from soil stress to planting missteps. Plus, seed-starting tips and a reflection on where we're truly meant to grow. In this episode, I share what gummosis can tell us about tree health and planting practices, and why repeated plant failure in the same spot deserves a closer look. We also revisit how weeping cherry trees are grafted, what reversion means, and how to care for them thoughtfully.Along the way, I share a few clever seed-planting techniques from listeners and a small correction from last week's episode—because the garden is always teaching.Link to the Companion Blog Post: When a Weeping Cherry “Bleeds”: What Lies Beneath

In this episode, I'm breaking down why we made the switch to Superior Ground Cover for our mulch installs and how it completely changed the way we approach large jobs. From knocking out 150 yards in a single day to reducing labor strain on the crew, this wasn't just about speed… it was about building a smarter, more scalable system. We'll talk through the real reasons behind the decision and what actually moved the needle for our business.

Welcome to episode 368 of Growers Daily! We cover: today we're going to talk mulches—specifically how to mulch to actually suppress weeds, finding the right mulch, and wood chips cause why not. We are a Non-Profit! 

Welcome to episode 366 of Growers Daily! We cover: today we're doing a whole eggplant breakdown, and using (and improving) the lawn for mulch.  We are a Non-Profit!
