organic gardening helpful ideas
One of my favorite organic
garden tips is this one. The most important thing you can do to control
pests in the organic garden is to keep the soil healthy. Healthy soil
produces healthy plants. Healthy plants, like healthy humans, are better
able to withstand disease.
A second helpful organic garden idea I
like is to control pests with ladybirds (ladybugs). These beautiful
little red insects with shiny black spots control aphids naturally and
totally. You can order them from several organic garden places on the
Internet. Until they arrive, spray every part of aphid-infested plants
with well diluted soapy water. Rinse with clear water.
My third
favorite organic gardening idea is to plant guardian plants around and
among tender vegetables. Marigolds make the organic garden border
colorful, and ward off many pests. Onions and garlic are also great
deterrents to pests that would like to break in and steal organic
produce.
