    I hope you’ve had a productive growing journey with this podcast and that you’re starting to realize that you can be a gardener too and that it’s something you enjoy. Maybe in the beginning though, you felt a little scared because you didn’t know what you were doing. Here’s a secret, none of us do, until we start somewhere. And when you do try, sometimes we get it wrong, and that’s okay. This episode is all about mistakes and we’re going to hear from lots of gardeners, just like you and me who got something wrong.

    The Mediocre Gardener Podcast Episode 4: From Seed to Shining Seed

    Where you can learn how to start plants from seed whether you want to do it by using a pot in a window (like my daughter suggested in this episode) or go extra like me and get heating pads, grow lights and seed trays. You may want to take notes on what you need. You'll also learn about hardening off which is the practice of getting the plants ready for the outdoor elements. Good luck and enjoy! Let me know if you give it a try next growing season. Email me at dearmediocregardener@gmail.com and visit mediocregardener.com to see my seedling setup!

    The Mediocre Gardener Podcast Episode 3: A Gardening Chat with My Mother

    When I was planning this episode, I was going to talk about how containers can be a garden too and lean on the expertise of my mother to walk us through that. However, once I got chatting to her, via FaceTime, in the height of lockdown 2021, I let the audio recorder capture it all and we just chatted about my mother's gardening journey. It is one of my most favorite things that I've ever recorded and edited. I can't wait for you to hear it! Let me know what you think by emailing dearmediocregardener@gmail.com. To see pictures of my mother and her garden, click here.

    The Mediocre Gardener Podcast Episode 2: Perfect Planning Prevents Poor Performance

    This episode of the podcast is all about working with what you've got and making a plan based on that. No garden is a blank slate, even if it looks completely empty to you. You're always dealing with soil, weather, and sometimes pest conditions. For those of you who do have some things planted already, rather than move them, let's work around them for now at least until you feel more comfortable with more ambitious projects in your garden. For the purpose of this episode, I'm going to use my garden so you can get a feel for how to think about your space. The beauty of gardening can be making it up as you go along, getting it wrong, and learning as you go. Let me know how you get on. Send your email to dearmediocregardener@gmail.com or find me on Instagram @mediocregardener. There are no wrong ideas, just judgmental gardeners!

    The Mediocre Gardener Podcast Episode 1: Inspiration, Planning, and Pick What You Love!

    In this episode of The Mediocre Gardener podcast I want you to have three takeaways! What types of gardens or green spaces inspire you? Where to look for other inspiration? Picking a plant, tree, flower or shrub that you absolutely love and planting it in the ground. There is no magic trick to gardening, you learn as you plant or kill as you plant in my case but that's part of being mediocre too, remember mistakes welcome! Plant what you love, send me a picture to dearmediocregardener@gmail.com, I can't wait to hear all about it! You can find more episodes of this podcast or images of my favorite green spaces at www.mediocregardener.com.

    The Mediocre Gardener Podcast

    Hi, I'm Edel, the Mediocre Gardener, and I'm looking to inspire you to be mediocre too in cultivating your own green space. How often in life do we set out to be mediocre at something? No one ever said, "I'm going to mediocre the heck out of this job/degree/once in a lifetime opportunity!" But what if you did decide to be mediocre at something, wouldn't that be kind of liberating? That's exactly what happened to me on my gardening journey. I've been an accidental and a passive gardener for over a decade as my family and I moved around the state of Texas. Now, in our third home, halfway across the United States in Pennsylvania, I'm a mediocre gardener and you can be too. I want you to feel like you can create your own beautiful oasis. It doesn't have to look like anyone else's yard, it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to bring you joy and be full of what you love. Mistakes welcome. No experience necessary. Let's get started! To follow along on my gardening journey head on over to www.mediocregardener.com dOx6hSCHfOnCKgEWeO4V
