Can AI compress the years long research time of a PhD into seconds? Research scientist Max Jaderberg explores how “AI analogs” simulate real-world lab work with staggering speed and scale, unlocking new insights on protein folding and drug discovery. Drawing on his experience working on Isomorphic Labs' and Google DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 — an AI model for predicting the structure of molecules — Jaderberg explains how this new technology frees up researchers' time and resources to better understand the real, messy world and tackle the next frontiers of science, medicine and more.

Best Plants For Exterior Walls 25:38

17 weeks yang lalu25:38

25:38

Climbing Plants for Home Exteriors - Non-Invasive Options & Maintenance Tips In this episode, we explore non-invasive climbing plants for home gardens, ideal for creating beautiful green walls while minimizing maintenance. From fragrant flowers to edible fruits, there's a wide variety of plants to choose from for both sunny and shady walls. Non-Invasive Climbing Plants for Home Gardens Here are some excellent options for non-invasive climbing plants: 1. Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) – An evergreen with fragrant, beautiful flowers. Known as Woodbine in the UK, it needs support to climb but adds a lovely scent to the garden. 2. Mandevilla – Available in white ( Laksa ) and pink ( Sandereae ) varieties, this tropical climber has large, beautiful flowers that require support. 3. Climbing Roses – Banksia roses (an Australian variety) are evergreen, producing yellow or white blooms. Climbing roses are ideal for vertical structures and add charm to any garden. 4. Clematis – These climbers come in various colors and are perfect for trellises or fences, offering vibrant blooms in spring and summer. 5. Climbing Hydrangea (Hydrangea petiolaris) – Excellent for shaded walls, this climber produces creamy white flowers and lush foliage. 6. Star Jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) – Thriving in shaded conditions, Star Jasmine is an evergreen climber with fragrant white flowers. 7. Wisteria – A fast-growing, beautiful climber with cascading flowers. Wisteria is perfect for sunny walls but needs regular pruning to stay controlled. 8. Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus tricuspidata) – A vigorous climber that provides stunning foliage, especially in autumn. It requires maintenance but is ideal for quick coverage. 9. Figs, Apples, Pears, and Espaliered Citrus – These edible climbers are perfect for sunny walls, offering both fruit and attractive greenery. Maintenance Tips for Climbing Plants To keep climbing plants healthy and well-managed, follow these maintenance tips: - Regular Feeding : Provide your plants with the necessary nutrients to thrive. - Pruning and Clipping : Trim plants regularly to maintain shape and prevent them from becoming too unruly. Tie them back to supports as needed. - Support : Install a strong structure (trellis, wall, or fence) for the plants to climb on, helping them grow in the right direction. - Soil and Climate Consideration s: Choose plants based on the soil type and climate in your area. Figs, apples, and citrus prefer sun, while Hydrangeas and Star Jasmine do well in the shade. - Managing Growth : Vigorous climbers like Virginia Creeper and Wisteria need consistent pruning to prevent overgrowth. Additional Tips and Considerations - Edible Climbing Plants : For a vertical garden that’s both functional and beautiful, consider edible plants like passion fruit, gooseberries, or strawberries. These plants produce fruits and flowers but can attract pests like birds and possums. - Vertical Gardens : PhytoGreen offers a high-end vertical garden system that uses organic blocks filled with plants. While this option is primarily for commercial use, a similar smaller container setup can be used for home gardens. - Dealing with Pests : To deter pests like possums from eating your edible plants, consider planting passion fruit at the top Where you can find all things Muddy Boots!

Gardening jobs to do during the heat of February 20:54

24 weeks yang lalu20:54

20:54

Today’s focus is perennial plants - which ones can you rely on to thrive in the summer heat? Gardening jobs during the heat of February. Check watering for maintenance and installing additional sprinklers where required Adding organic wetting agents such as ECO Hydrate. Broadforking for all your garden to get as much air, moisture and goodness deep down into the soil. Keith recommends F.D Ryan's Broadforks for this job Consider soil improvement with Clyde’s lignite Using Seasol or other seaweed products to help heat-stressed plants Using a product such as MycoGold and watering this into holes created with a broadfork will help with moisture retention February is also a great time for doing some Summer pruning of fruit trees Keeping your eyes out for pest and disease is another very important job for February, particularly powdery mildew and leaf hopper . ECO Neem (best used on its own in Summer, mix with Eco Oil at other times of the year) Make sure your lawns are kept cut on a higher mowing setting over the summer months. If you love eating Brussel Sprouts like Keith does, then this is the month to plant your seedlings into your well-prepared vegetable beds. So there are lots of things you can be doing in the garden in February, and these are just a few. Where you can find all things Muddy Boots!

Perennials that look great in the garden at this time of the year 24:50

26 weeks yang lalu24:50

24:50

Today’s focus is perennial plants - which ones can you rely on to thrive in the summer heat? What is a Perennial? Generally have a life span of 5-7 years. Once the flowers die off, the plant produces new growth at the base. Perennials are a fantastic choice with long flowering seasons (up to 9 months). Perennials can’t be beaten for colour, texture and variety. Before selecting perennials, be sure to check your ‘heat and cold zones’ for best performance. Aim to prune before at the end of March before the Autumn Equinox to extend the flowering season. Dead-heading your perennials and regular feeding with products like Charlie Carp will help them to thrive. Common pests - bugs like leaf hoppers can be treated with ECO Neem and Eco Oil (avoid spraying in full sun). Top performing perennials: Verbena bonariensis Salvia mystic spires Agastache orange Achillea Moonshine Rudbeckia Goldquelle Persicaria amplexicaulis Fat Domino Helenium Moerheim Beauty Echinacea Magnus Superior Achillea Summer Berries Sedum Autumn Joy Perevoskia atriplicifolia Euphorbia Arctic Blue Scaevola ground cover Pigface Where you can find all things Muddy Boots!

Q&A time again! Who will be this month’s lucky winner of the fabulous prize donated by The Plant Runner ? Keith waters 4mm per day based on his particular conditions. Watering amounts will vary depending on soil and weather conditions. Be guided by what works! Best watering for trees is around the drip line - that is at the breadth of the canopy (not the trunk). MycoGold is an excellent addition and can be forced down by using a broadfork For pot planting Keith recommends mixture of quality potting mix (such as Scotts Premium Potting Mix mixed with compost and mulch with Who Flung Dung . Tomatoes would need a pot of at least 40 litres diameter. Shady, clay soil? Check out Macadamia Pinkalicious , Blueberry Ash , Mountain Pepper , Gymea Lilies , Bangalow Palm , Graptophyllum , Evodia Looking for quality tools? Check out F.D Ryan's Advice on potatoes - check out recent episode HERE Advice on garlic - check out previous episode HERE Growing seeds in cooler climates. Keith recommends investing in a heat mat and using a Moon calendar Asparagus - do not harvest for 3-5 years! Listen to Keith’s other tips! Growing deciduous trees under a large native tree? Apply MycoGold to assist with water retention. Comfrey Boking 14 planted at the drip line deep mines the goodness that then becomes a natural mulch Keep sending in your questions via DM to Muddy Boots or where needed in between episodes, reach out to Keith at ke_landscape_consultant Where you can find all things Muddy Boots!

Growing Potatoes 26:25

36 weeks yang lalu26:25

26:25

Today we hear Keith’s top tips on growing potatoes! Keith assures us that potatoes are the easiest of all vegetables to grow! Potatoes can be grown at any time but they are frost tender so should be planted after the last frost (in Southern States or frost prone areas) Use certified ‘seed potatoes’ - this will ensure they are free from disease. Most non-organic potatoes found in supermarkets etc are sprayed with glyphosate 360 so should be avoided There are a number of different methods for growing potatoes: Grown in your garden - Keith warns, you will have these together as they nearly impossible to get rid of Use a designated garden bed - you will harvest approx 8-10 potatoes per plant Grow in a potato bag using a good quality potting mix- Several on the market including Bunnings Potato Bag Wire frame can be used by layering compost and straw Potatoes need consistent water but avoid being too wet to ensure potatoes don’t rot To ensure a good yield, add plenty of compost and other organic matter Keith recommends planting whole seed potato (not cut) covered with 200mm soil/compost as plants shoots cover with additional soil/compost or straw (indeterminate potatoes only) Indeterminate potatoes include - Brownell , Dutch Cream , Nicola , Up To Date , King Edward , Salad Rose , Pink Fir Apple , Potato Sapphire Determinate potatoes include - S punta , Kennebec , Purple Congo , Pink Eye , Carlingford , Red Pontiac once potato plant’s flowers have died off, feel through to the stem where you will find ‘new potatoes’ (indeterminate varieties only). Once the plant has completely died off, leave for approx 2 weeks before harvesting. Store in cool dry place in hessian bag or wire basket away from sunlight. Pests include earwigs Good luck with your home grown taties! Where you can find all things Muddy Boots!
