Prefect Guide of Organic Garden A Beginners Guide to Starting a Healthy Garden

Organic crops. The organic seal verifies that irradiation, sewage sludge, synthetic fertilizers, prohibited pesticides, and genetically modified organisms were not used." USDAMy definition: Only materials used are 100% natural from the earth in its natural state, ground down to a meal or flour. Bacteria's in solution or powder must not have any synthetic components. THAT'S IT.Now, with that said, in commercial organic farming there are still some approved pesticides, fungicides, and micronutrient supplements that are synthetic. This is something that has bothered me for years. This has given me the idea to try and educate the people and let them know that you can grow this organic food at home, at a low cost, only use organic materials, and know it's safe for the earth and you and your family.In organic farming, you do not feed the nutrients and minerals to the plants. You feed the nutrients and minerals to the soil. Healthy soil or Organic Living Soil is full of beneficial bacteria's and fungi a.k.a. microbes, which break down organic matter and rock particles. Organic matter and rock particles a.k.a. Organic Amendments, are what is used to feed the soil.These nutrient and mineral amendments can be anything from Seed Meals, Plant Meals, Marine Meals, rock flours, clays etc. A meal is basically a ground version of the original items. So, if you were to take kelp (seaweed) for instance, which is one of the most important amendments in organic farming, and washed it off and dried it, and then ground it up you would have a Kelp Meal.If you took Basalt rock, which is a volcanic rock full of minerals and ground it down to a powder you would have a rock flour or dust. Each amendment has a different amount of nutrients and minerals, so it's all about understanding what meal or stone flour has and trying to feed your soil what it needs to feed the plants.These meals and flours are then either mixed with soils or put on the surface of the soil and scratched in. They are then broken down by those beneficial microbes. After that process has occurred, the microbes hold those nutrients and minerals and get consumed by other fungi in soil which are attached to the plants roots, who then transfer those nutrients to the plant. There are a lot of other beneficial microbes in the soil that I am not talking about at the moment to try and keep this as basic as possible. That is the idea behind real organic farming. Microbes eat organic matter, fungi eat microbes, and fungi feed roots. Simple.Now, how do you create organic living soil which has the perfect amount of nutrients and minerals?That's the million dollar question. You have to understand what ingredients have what important nutrients and minerals.The important ones for plant growth are: Macro-nutrients: nitrogen, phosphorus, potassiumMacro-minerals: calcium, magnesiumMicro-nutrients: boron, chlorine, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, silicon and zinc.Your macronutrients and minerals are most important, followed by your micronutrients. Most meals or organic materials have your basic macronutrients in varying amounts, and then your rock flours will have your minerals and micronutrients. I suggest if you would like to make your own amendment blends you research what organic amendments have what nutrients and minerals and then create a very diverse blend.
