iPod, iPhone, iPad, iTunes, iGarden

Videos from the University of Maryland's Home and Garden Information Center, as well it's Grow it, Eat it program, are now on iTunesU.

If you have iTunes on your computer, simply choose iTunesU from the menu, choose the University of Maryland from among the colleges and universities and the College of Agriculture from among the Maryland departments.

There you will find the same videos that are available at the HGIC Web site, including videos about pruning, snakes and turtles.

From among the Grow it, Eat it videos, you will find video information on late blight on tomaotes, how to do a soil test and how to plant a "lasagna" garden. There are 39 videos in all, many of which are also available on YouTube.

Maryland isn't the only college or university with gardening videos on iTunesU. Clemson's informational videos are there, too.

About Susan Reimer

Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
