Dr. Russell Sharp explores crops that struggle outdoors in the UK due to short, cool seasons and shows how hydroponics or protected cultivation can make them viable. He discusses sweet potato slips, cotton, jute, castor bean, rice trials, peanuts, melons, chillies and more, plus business opportunities for growers and the effects of climate change on crop potential.

Listeners will learn which crops need grow rooms or greenhouses, which might be trialed outdoors, and ideas for commercial hydroponic production and supply to gardeners and farmers.
