Organic Garden Tips
About organic gardening
Many gardeners prefer organic gardening techniques as a way of growing lots of tasty, edible crops without the use of man-made chemicals and fertilisers. Organic growing techniques are also beneficial to wildlife, as many chemicals can create an imbalance in the natural food chain of your garden.
Organically-grown flowers can look just as good as and growing your own food this way guarantees that it is tastier and you'll have the peace of mind of knowing exactly what has gone into producing it. It's not difficult to change your style of gardening and while it might initially feel daunting, you'll reap the benefits long-term.
Improve your soil-Good soil promotes healthy plant growth. Leaf mould, composted bark and garden compost can be dug into the soil or spread across the surface, where weather and worms will work them in. Their bulk will improve the drainage of heavy soils and allow dry soil to hold onto moisture and nutrients.
