Urban Horticulture and The Martian (Vikram Baliga)

  • Summary

  • Happy Tuesday! In this episode I'm joined by The Plant Prof himself, Vikram Baliga from Texas Tech University. Vikram is a Horticulturist working as a lecturer and greenhouse and gardens manager and he's using Mark Watney (Space Pirate) from Andy Weir's "The Martian" to explain his work and research. 

    This episode ended up covering a huge range of topics, from hydroponics, to plant sweat, food deserts, accessible lecturing, Bristlecone Pines and a whole lot more. 

    You can find Vikram on Twitter and TikTok as @ThePlantProf and on his podcast "Planthropology" (https://www.planthropologypod.com).

    If you'd like to know more about anything I've talked about today, you can find The Biologist of It on Instagram and Twitter @biologistofit or me as @DrBeeNichols.

    Thank you for listening, see you next week!
