Nails in your soil? Human hair to deter pests? Is there any truth to these gardening myths?

Will Tums help your tomatoes? Will anything grow under a black walnut tree? In this week's episode, Jon and Don tackle some old wive's tales about garden and lawn care, dispelling some myths and giving you alternatives that work. === "Growing Together: A Gardening Podcast" is a show for gardeners in the upper Midwest and is based in Fargo, North Dakota. Don Kinzler is a horticulturist with NDSU Extension in Cass County, a lifelong gardener, and a trusted resource for gardeners throughout our region. Co-host John Lamb is an arts and entertainment reporter for The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead. John bought a house a few years ago and has taken up gardening, so he has a lot of questions for Don. If you have a question for an upcoming episode of "Growing Together," email Don at donald.kinzler@ndsu.edu.
