Secrets of a Successful Organic Garden

This little YouTube gem is loaded with succinct advice you can apply to your garden – whether you are just beginning, or have already established your green thumb.

Among the best advice is how to use water wisely – collecting rainwater (the best source) when possible, using Clay Garden Ollas to accumulate ‘sweated’ atmospheric water right into your garden, and some strategies for filtering out toxins like fluoride and chlorine when using city/tap water (if you must), such as this garden hose filter that removes chlorine, etc. or a whole house reverse osmosis water filter system. These gardeners recommend this Rainshow’r Water Garden Filter System and this oxygen infusing spray nozzle. New to me, but looks very promising!

There are also tips on attracting pollinators, like loner mason bees, butterflies, honeybeess and other beneficial insects and organisms many of which are stimulated by healthy, active and alive soil and organic fertilizers like worm tea (brewed from castings).

If you grow organic at home in your own garden, you are producing some of the healthiest, freshest and freest food available.

If you are so inclined, give it a try, and work towards improving your soil, harvest and ultimately your health! The sunshine and fresh air from working in the garden surely won’t hurt. Now if only we could block those chemtrails…
