Notas del episodio

Welcome to episode 518 of Growers Daily!

Today we are reaching into the mailbag to get some interesting questions ranging from, what are my opinion on IMOs (indigenous micro organisms), should you build your garden beds before or after you build your high tunnel, and do a little WWFJD on starting a farm. Very acronym-onious day.
