In this Gardentalk segment recorded May 7, Master Gardener Ed Buyarski has some tips for harvesting asparagus, hardening tomatoes, and seed planting carrots and other vegetables. He says hold off on planting any radishes or spinach right now or it will bolt with the increasing daylight.

Buyarski also lets us know about events happening in Juneau this weekend, including the big annual plant sale.

Gardentalk is weekly Thursday morning feature on KTOO’s Morning Edition.
