Mulch and Nitrogen, Smartweeds, and Aliens in Junipers
Ellen and C.L. discuss whether the use of mulch robs the soil of nitrogen, and we take a dive into the Polygonaceae family…smart weeds and knotweeds. We give you the scoop on two informative webinars for anyone interested in growing hydrangeas, and answer a question about the odd, jelly-like forms that a listener has found on some junipers.
1:42 True or False: Mulch robs the soil of nitrogen.
6:21 Eat/Drink/Grow: Is your weed smart or knot?
12:31 Insider Information: Hydrangea webinars given by C.L.
16:33 Love Letters and Questions: Aliens in the juniper!

Smartweed flowers are quite pretty. We leave it to you to decide if you’re going to pull them or not.
