The Sounds in My Head is a biweekly music show featuring songs and bands you might have missed. Hosted by Daniel since 2004. Musically The Sounds in My Head attempts to be fairly eclectic, but probably tends to lean towards "indie pop" music.

One of the first fruits I started to grow whilst renting was a blueberry. Many years ago blueberries used to be so cost prohibitive to buy here - around $8 for a 125g a punnet. I always thought they were a cool weather fruit after seeing them sell dirt cheap in huge punnets when we were travelling in Canada, but failing to realise that blueberry fa…

If you're a seed hoarder like myself, there is nothing worse than trying to propagate seeds and they are no longer viable even if the date says they should be good. Seeds do have a shelf life, but environmental influences (aka the way you store them) have a massive affect their viability. In this episode I talk about methods for storing your seeds.…

I have so many people say to me that they are terrible at raising things from seeds. I get it, it can be pretty easy to kill seeds if the conditions aren’t right. Too much water, too little water.

Do you have a problem with little flies hovering around your indoor plants or even your kitchen compost caddy?

I often get asked whether cat or dog poo can be placed in the compost bin. The short answer is yes. With a big fat caveat. You don’t want it mixed with your regular compost that goes in your veggies. In this episode I chat about why you don't want to mix your pet poo in with your regular garden compost, and what you can do to compost it instead.…

Are you vegan but struggle to find solutions that aren’t animal based for your vegan garden? For a very long time I was super confused as to how you could be vegan and also eat organically.

I’ve always been one to thin my vegetable seedlings, beetroot included. I have found over the years that plants do better if they’re not competing with resources (sun, water, nutrients). Thinned plants are usually a little more resilient from bug attacks. In this episode I chat about my latest experiment with not thinning beetroots, along with some…

One of the first posts I wrote on our blog was our setup of a mini wicking bed pot. It worked well for a while but the styrofoam eventually failed and I never got around to implementing that type again as I moved to different ways of doing them.
