What is Organic Gardening?

Organic gardeners use organic gardening materials such as compost, mechanical barriers, physical controls, companion planting, cultural strategies, biological controls, and some sprays that are organic. They use these special growing methods to grow plants that contain no harmful chemicals. When organic gardening is done correctly, it can produce stronger effects on the flower, vegetable, or herb garden than using non-organic chemicals. Organic gardening can be practiced all year long by applying organic growing methods to greenhouses, houseplants, outdoor gardens, or even a hydroponic garden.
