Natural Fertilizers for Organic Growing

Organic Fertilizers are different from chemical fertilizers because they feed your plants while adding organic material to the soil. Soils with an abundance of organic matter remain loose and airy, hold a greater amount of moisture and nutrients, promote the growth of beneficial soil organisms, and provide a healthier plant root system.

Constant use of chemical fertilizers over time will cause degradation of the soil; losing its organic matter and microbiotic activity. As organic matter is used up, the soil structure begins to deteriorate, compaction occurs and the soil becomes lifeless and less able to hold water and nutrients. Finally, weeds become prevalent as they attempt to protect the topsoil with their profound root systems and broad leaves. As time goes by, greater amounts of chemicals are needed to feed plants. Organic Fertilizers as opposed to chemical fertilizers are made from renewable resources.
