Our guest on this morning's program is Navy veteran and ardent home gardener, John Dannecker -- who is also an alum of San Rafael High school (as is Edie herself!).  John spoke to us about his lifelong love for gardening, how that inspired him to renovate the gardens of his family home in San Diego, and how he applied his engineering skills to explore alternative modes of growing, including using a FarmBot, and a hydroponic growing outfit assembled from readily available parts.   Truly a show for your Inner Plant Nerd today!
