Feed the soil, not the plants! When we feed our plants, and not - TopicsExpress



          

Feed the soil, not the plants! When we feed our plants, and not our soil, we lose all the benefits from microbes. When we feed the soil, we actually feed the microbes in the soil. Microbes make nutrients available for plants. You feed microbes by adding organic material. If you give plants a synthetic chemical fertilizer, you feed only the plant, not the soil nor the microbes. Soil has supported plants and given them nutrients since long before we invented other fertilizers, so why not feed the soil and preserve the natural geological interactions that support plant survival and growth?
