Music programs are only online for two weeks after they are broadcast.

Davis Garden Show, Sept. 9, 2021, Houseplants and water

Today's topics:

  • Tomato problems this year
  • Water needed for growing food is more than water needed to just grow foliage
  • Almond trees
  • Nematodes -- what are they and what to do if you have them
  • House plants that are, and are not, easy to grow
  • Don recommends for new gardeners: Golden pothos (and relatives), Easy ZZ, and Snakeplant (Sanserveria)
  • Growing trees indoors
  • Ficus benjamina  = flexible about lighting, but fussy when you move it.
  • Is it too late to plant tomatos? Pepper? Pumpkins? YES, those get planted in the spring to be HARVESTED in the fall.
  • Now is the time to start planning (and planting) your winter garden! (More details next show.)

Back to School!

After more than a year of trying to socialize, learn, and un-mute through computer screens, students and teachers are back on the Davis Senior High School campus to begin the in-person school year. With such a change, comes nerves, mistakes and excitement for both students and staff. Packages: Stella Maze and Max Davis-Housefield.

Producers- Max Davis-Housefield & Stella Maze, Theme Music- Daniel Ruiz-Jimenez

The Folk Brothers for Sept. 8, 2021: Folk musicians strike back

Many Folk/Americana musicians -- like those featured on today's show -- have never shied away from calling out hypocrisy and injustice. Jackson Brown has long championed the anti-war movement. Iris DeMent (pictured here) advocates for women's rights. And Jason Isbell has challenged the intolerance and ignorance of many country music fans: recently he has advocated for proof of vaccinations to attend his live perfromances. Also on today's show, new music from Spiers and Boden, Adam Holmes, The Faux Paws, and a 50-year-old classic track from Lindisfarne.
