RE: NYT - compost tea goes high tech!

I have tried to watch the new Victory Garden with a neutral eye and be non
judgmental, but it is really getting to me! It isn't just the host that has
dumbed down the program, it is the guests too! I used to record it and watch
it later in the week.  Bah humbug, I have taken it off my VCR record menu.

Cheryl,

Victory Garden had composters on this past weekend.  It seems they do a good
job for tiny city gardens.  If you have a some space they do appear to be a
great nuisance plus you need to chop up the waste.  New host talks to the
audience as if you are half an idiot.  There is an accented tool expert
also.
 He also does the damnedest  presentation.  If you need help buying a
trowel,
he is your guy.  I am disappointed with the new incarnation of VG.  It makes
sense, I suppose, that a program supported by commercials (PBS does have
commercials) will try to reach the widest possible audience.  Perhaps
gardening is not for TV.
