Summary

William Evans has been working in the horticulture and nursery industry for over 20 years and brings a wealth of experience to the table. Today’s podcast is all about containers. While I’ve always been a proponent of planting directly into the ground when possible, this is not an option in many situations and propagation is best done in small trays or containers. William shares with us how containers can dramatically reduce transplant shock, improve worker efficiency, increase plant health, and a myriad of other benefits. We also talk about how the wrong container can cause major issues resulting in poor growth, root girdling, and even the potential for your container being a source of contamination. We also discuss and exciting organic solution for slugs in your garden. https://www.kisorganics.com/pages/cannabis-cultivation-and-science-podcast-episode-18

0:00.0	Welcome to the Cannabis
0:03.1	Welcome to the Cannabis Cultivation and Science Podcast.
0:18.5	I'm your host, Tad Hussey of KIS Organics. This is the podcast where we discuss
0:23.5	the cutting edge of organic growing from a science-based perspective and drawn top experts from around
0:28.5	the industry to share their wisdom and knowledge. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday, and I'm
0:33.9	excited to be back making podcasts for 2018. We have a great lineup of guests for future interviews, ranging from the latest in lighting
0:40.8	technology to soil testing, permaculture, lean farming, outdoor cultivation, and much more.

0:56.3	I met William actually through Suzanne Wainwright Evans, the entomologist from my last podcast.
1:01.2	When we were talking off air, she said, you have to meet my husband, and we started talking
1:05.0	about what he does, and it seemed like a perfect fit for the podcast.
1:08.6	William has been working in the horticulture and nursery industry for over 20 years
1:12.4	and brings a wealth of experience to the table. This podcast is not the most glamorous of subjects,
1:17.9	but one that deserves some attention. Today's podcast is all about containers. While I've been a
1:23.4	proponent of planting directly into the ground when possible, this is not an option in many
1:28.0	situations, and propagation is best done in small tracer containers. William will share with us
1:33.6	how containers can dramatically reduce transplant shock, improve worker efficiency, increase plant
1:39.1	health, and a myriad of other benefits. We also talk about how the wrong container can cause

1:45.4	poor growth, root girdling, and even the potential for your container being a source of contamination.
