| Two Methods for Home Food Gardening
MANaged for profit: ??? ORGANIC PRODUCTS (i.e. green sand, etc.) = $$$$$ ??? MicroLife fertilizer = $$$$$ ??? N, K, P, Fe, etc. = $$$$ ??? Soil testing = $$$ ??? Chemical and/or organic Pesticides = $$$$$ ??? Classes to teach you to use the above = $$$$ Grow in SAND and puzzle over what to add back to make healthy dirt and plants. OR
NATURE has already figured this out better than we can! It’s simple, low cost, and practically automatic! Use LOTS of ORGANIC MATTER: Leaves, home-made compost, old plants, yard trimmings, etc. = FREE Mushroom compost, composted manure (any animal) = $ Shredded native hardwood mulch, straw, newspaper¸etc. = $ A complete set of microorganisms, already in the ground, come to feed on the organic matter. (Mostly good, they keep the few bad ones in check) = FREE Beneficial insects will find you. (They keep the few bad ones in check) = FREE Let nature make the healthiest dirt automatically, giving your plants the most complete nutrition and best disease protection. You just puzzle over what you feel like letting grow! | |
