| 0:00.0 | If you are trying to get into house months, it's actually a good time of year in my opinion to do it because if you're listening, you probably can't garden outside, at least in any significant capacity as we go into winter. |

| 0:25.2 | Plants with Crystal, all over social media. |
| 0:27.8 | Like I said yesterday, Crystal, |
