The Basics of Growing Vegetables Organically
-Get the soil tested. Take a sample of the soil to a soil testing lab and tell them it is specifically for organic gardening. Most county extension offices will do this for a small fee.
-Condition the soil with fertilizers. One of the most important nutrients to add to the soil is compost. Compost can be bought or prepared at home.
-After the soil is ready for use, it need to be tilled. You can till the soil by hand or use machines. Tilling by hand is considered to be more efficient.
-Sow the seeds.
-Control the pests by using insecticides, organic pesticides and herbicides.
