Fancy Plants Podcast

Cris, Sue and Amanda are back on track and discuss the act of hardening off plants as you get ready to send them outdoors for the growing season. Then, the FPP ladies discuss what they feel are ugly plants. But are plants ever really ugly?

We are so sorry for this episode. OK, now that that's out of the way, Cris, Sue and Amanda welcome Al and Kasper from The Cultured Guitarist to take a plant quiz. As far as maturity ratings go, this one's pretty low so if that's your thing put the littles to bed and get ready to laugh until you cry. Or just cry. We're not sure. We do know that we've invented a new band name, a new fertilizer, and a new way to choose edible plants if you're lost in the forest so listen in for these and other great non-fact-checked plant tips.

Cris, Sue and Amanda talk about living in Northern Alberta and its unique sunshine situation. Then, after discussing plants they want to propagate, the ladies review plants in movies. Maybe Amanda cries. You'll have to listen to find out!

OK well to be honest, Cris, Sue and Amanda put the digressive in digressive chatter in this episode. Spring fever has kicked in so the FPP ladies may have some trouble staying on topic (for example, Cris goes down a 5 Minute Craft rabbit hole) but there actually is some cool info about growing edible plants indoors... you just have to stick around for the gems.

Cris, Sue and Amanda go over some finer points of seed starting supplemented by the age-old question: Does fertilizer dumped in your bra increase your cup size? Then, stick around as the ladies take tours of their homes and plants while pointing out next-level indoor plant tips to help your indoor plants be their best selves. Soon-to-be-permanent disclaimer: Adult content ahead.

Cris, Sue and Amanda discuss what assumptions people make when they find out you are a plant collector and then dig deep into plant things that they used to do. Again, we are throwing out the adult content warning for this episode. We are feisty this month.

The Fancy Plants Podcast ladies are back! In this episode, Cris, Sue & Amanda catch up, talk about starting hot pepper seeds, reveal plants they bring home to die, and discuss three very weird plants. Fair warning: There is some adult-only content in this episode.

Cris, Sue and Amanda discuss moving plants in the cold Canadian winter, Amanda's garden plans, and then talk about Plant Apps they love or that maybe didn't quite meet expectations.

Cris, Sue and Amanda welcome their friend Sacha on the show to ask some really great questions that the FPP ladies wouldn't think to answer. Included: what's being planted for spring, latest plant losses, and plant nostalgia. Enjoy!

The FPP ladies share with you how to fight fungus gnats, discuss how to pronounce 'diatomaceous earth', and then get into some fact sharing about three plants that changed the world.
