AI in the garden? Yep. In this episode, Shannon and Cait share how they use "Chat Cath" (their nickname for ChatGPT) as a practical garden consultant—while staying thoughtful about environmental impacts and double-checking advice with real-world experience.

You'll hear how they:

• build succession and crop-rotation plans for every bed

• track sow dates and auto-generate next-season calendars

• right-size plant quantities and verify spacing

• create custom organic fertilizer mixes per crop/bed

• translate soil test photos into plain-English actions

• dial in irrigation timing (pots, beds, drip)

• ID pests/diseases from photos and choose organic responses

• design planting combos (including a white knot garden)

• keep a voice-driven, searchable garden journal

If you're curious how AI can remove admin work so you can spend more time growing, this one's for you. Let's go grow, baby!
