This week on Garden Guys ... Cold & Wet. Not such a perfect combination when it comes to seed germination.
Cold & Colder. Not such a great condition for early starting fruit tree blossoms and fruit.
Darrin and Tom discuss the various issues with early season (wobbling) temperatures and how they affect plants, and how that can affect when and how you seed the garden this year. Darrin brings some fragrance samples to the studio with questionable results.
