The Growing Season, Nov. 25, 2023 - Sub-Zero Horticulture
Season 4 Episode 46
Winter is just about here but The Growing Season asks the question: "Can you garden in areas like Antarctica, The Arctic, The North Pole and other sub-zero climates?"
Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland dive into the plants that survive and thrive in environments that get way, way, wayyyy below zero.
What do deserts and sub-zero environments have in common? More than you think.
Arctic willow, sedges, grasses, potatoes, cabbage, garlic and a question about White Pines covers the bases for plants.
What is silica and how does it tie into sub-zero horticulture?
You'll be surprised to learn the medical requirements and restrictions in place for those looking to work in a research station in Antarctica. Its almost science fiction-esque.
Arctic bumblebees, nose bot flies and the arctic dance fly are just some of the insects that get the spotlight.
