K asked:


cow dung, cow urine, jaggery, flour, soil, neem oil (as pesticide) and water.

This technique says that each gram of cow dung has more than 500 crores of beneficial micro-organisms that make the soil more fertile. The dung generated by one cow is sufficient to produce organic manure for 30 acres. This natural fertilizer can be used for any crop.

Mulching plays a vital role in this technique. Mixed cropping and crop rotation is used to ensure replenishment of soil fertility.

In this system of farming no monetary investment on the part of farmer is required for purchase of seeds, fertilizers and plant protection chemicals from the market. The farmer can produce his own seed. More importantly, there is absolutely no place for fertilizers and plant protection chemicals in this scheme of farming. The whole philosophy behind this system is to make the farmer self-reliant by freeing him from market dispensed high cost inputs.

Are you interested in learning this technique?

I can’t use any kinds of pesticides because of my asthma, so anything I do has to be organic. I know I’m wanting to plant some tomatoes, cucumbers, maybe some watermelon, and maybe some pumkins. What all do I need to know before I start this little project of mine? Thanks!

Argus 420 asked:


I have an indoor garden where these tiny little gnats seem to spring forth like wild-flowers after a long rainy winter from the soil of my plants. I have a few yellow fly strips up, however, after about a week and a few hundred flies later, they stop having any space left for more flies!

I have tried nematodes and ladybugs, however those are very expensive require lots of work. My indoor garden, because of where I live, is going to be prone to these bugs no matter what I do.

I have a small outdoor garden where spiders have taken residence and seem to keep my bug problem at bay, and I have had MUCH experience with spiders and how beneficial they can be as predators. I always leave 2-3 in or around my house or garage that are out of reach to keep my bug problems at bay. (we all have flies, face it…)

Is there a “safe” species of spider that I can introduce into my very small indoor garden that will keep the bug problem at bay? Can a “safe” sepcies be kept under control?

What would the people who buy organic goods be surprised that farmers/producers can use on compost, the land, the crop?

If you have good reason there are other non organic substances you can use in certified organic farming. What are these? Have you used them?

Is organic, really organic?

rz asked:


I want a decent size organic garden. I would like a lot of tomatoes, green beans, herbs, zuccine, eggplant, squash, lettuces, peppers, and corn. When do I start? Can I start them from seeds now? What can I plant to keep pests away? Any advise would be great.
