Mozart or Motley Crue? 🎻🎸 Science officially weighed in on what happens when you play music for your vegetable plants, and the results are incredible.

A study published in Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture tracked Bok Choy plants grown under three conditions: Classical Music, Rock Music, and absolute silence.

The winner by a landslide? Team Classic (no pun intended 😉). The classical 🎼 music crops exploded, producing the highest total weight, the most leaves, and stouter, thicker root systems.

The biggest surprise? The rock music crops scored the lowest across every single category, even underperforming compared to the plants left in total silence! Erratic, harsh vibration frequencies actually cause stress to developing plant cells.

So if you want giant tomatoes and lush herbs this summer, keeping your patio playlist a little more melodic might be the ultimate hidden garden hack. What do you play for your plants? Let us know in the comments!

Well, we were planning to use this exact strategy today. But with all the rain coming down out there, we are officially trapped inside with the chores. 😩

Honestly, we can't even be mad. This moisture is so needed for our Alberta soil and is going to make everything look incredibly vibrant this week! 🌧️🌾

Since the greenhouse is closed on Sundays anyway, we guess it is time to finally tackle that indoor to-do list... or we could just sit on the couch with a coffee and plan our next garden project instead. Who else is choosing option two today? Stay dry out there!

Check out these stunning shots sent in from a local backyard, featuring a newly potted Hibiscus looking right at home on the deck. Bringing that lush, resort-style energy to an Alberta yard is the perfect way to upgrade an outdoor living space.

If your deck or patio needs a colour injection for the sunny summer weekends ahead, we have a massive selection of blooming tropical statement pieces and custom patio planters ready to load up. Come walk the benches this week and grab yours!

Want to cheat the short Edmonton growing season? 🌱

The greenhouse just got a massive fresh restock for the weekend, and the maturity on these plants is incredible. If you want a massive head start on your garden, you need to see these.

We are talking towering corn, incredibly lush Thai Basil, and huge tomato plants that are already thriving. Skip the tiny starter plugs and get straight to the good stuff.

The racks are being unloaded onto the floor right now. Come get your garden fully planted this weekend! 🍅🌽🌿
