Organic Heirloom Gardening - Gardening With Nature
by John Yazo
Organic gardening is away of gardening by the use of natural fertilizers and pest control along with working in harmony with nature. There are no synthetic or chemical fertilizers, insecticides or herbicides used.
This is all done by creating a healthy environment for plants and working with nature. Organic gardening is the same method used by nature in our forests, grasslands and meadows. Soil is the key to success in this method of gardening. Creating a good healthy soil structure with organic matter like compost will help in the natural defense of disease and insect problems in your garden by growing a healthy plant. Healthy plants have the ability to protect themselves from disease and insects naturally along with the ability of reproducing themselfs your years to come.
Heirloom Gardening is another method of gardening that uses open pollinated plants to reproduce plants as they are done naturally in the wild.
In creating a healthy environment that will benefit your garden you can incorporate the methods of companion planting and crop rotation. Companion planting will help by creating an environment that will attract beneficial insects and other natural means of insect control like the attraction of birds and toads to your garden. Crop rotation is a method that is used to help build a good healthy soil structure along with adding nutrients to the soil that the plants need to thrive.
Choosing the appropriate plants for your area, creating an attractive environment for beneficial insects, creating healthy garden soil, mulching and the proper watering of plants are just a few of the important parts of organic gardening.
Organic gardening can be done in any size garden, from container planting, raised bed gardening to full size gardens and for the new gardener to the experienced gardener.
A environment friendly and healthy way of gardening. Organic gardening is away of gardening in harmony with nature. Growing a healthy and productive crop in a way that is healthier for both you and the environment.
