Groundwork: Soil, Compost, Mulch and more!

Gardeners' Question Time

Available for over a year

Kathy Clugston digs through the Gardeners' Question Time archive to root out some information on Soil, Compost, Mulch and more. Our various GQT panellists over the last 77 years have been no stranger to soil and compost related questions, from queries on how to create a workable soil in the garden to questions on the difference between compost and soil conditioner. For the first autumnal archive programme of 2024 we’ve raked through the extensive GQT archive and pulled out some of the best advice on these topics. We also hear from garden designer and lecturer Humaira Ikram, who explains the importance of understanding the PH level of your soil. Producer: Bethany Hocken Assistant Producer: Rahnee Prescod Executive Producer: Carly Maile A Somethin’ Else production for BBC Radio 4
