Fat tomatoes, enormous pumpkins, sunflowers that stretch up into 
the sky - for some home gardeners, what starts out as a hobby turns 
into a quest for the colossal. There are even competitions. And to 
have a chance, an ambitious gardener has to do a lot more than just 
talk to his little green charges. If you want quick growth and sturdy
plants, there's just no getting around it - you have to fertilize 
them. In entertaining weekly episodes our Chemical Reporter answers 
questions of our Podcast listeners on Chemistry in our everyday life.
