Frequently asked gardening related questions
Supporting soil microbiology is central to organic gardening. Avoid synthetic chemicals that harm microbes. Consistently add diverse organic matter (compost, leaf mould, mulches) as food for microorganisms. Practice "no-dig" gardening to minimise disturbance. Use cover crops to keep living roots in the soil. Diverse plant plantings also foster a richer microbial community, creating a healthy soil food web that cycles nutrients and protects plants from disease.
