You're listening to the Joe Gardner show, the podcast all about gardening,

where we cover everything you need to know to grow like a pro, no experience required.

And now, here's your guide, National Gardening Television Host,

and the Joe behind Joe Gardner, Joe Lample.

Hi everybody, this is Joe Lample, the Joe behind Joe Gardner, and yes, this is Joe Lample the Joe behind Joe Gardner and yes this is the

Joe Gardner show not the Craig Lohullier show although you might think that

because this is number three in a row with Craig so why in the world would we do three episodes in a row with one person?

Well, first of all, Craig Lihullier is super knowledgeable when it comes to growing tomatoes.

He wrote the book on it.

Epic tomatoes, one of my favorite books,

but it's also that time of year.

I mean this is the peak of tomato growing season.

right now we are sort of mid-season at that time where you know we've got tomato

inevitable. I don't care how good you are growing tomatoes. Mother nature is in

control here and she's going to find out

find out you know what are you listening in to find out you know what are those

things that you can glean and learn and apply to your garden to try to

minimize the impact that mother nature is going to throw at you

or maybe even be proactive to the point that you can plan ahead and eliminate some of those problems that

might show up otherwise. So that's the discussion today.
