29 Nov '05 11:21 am Hello all, and welcome to the new organic gardening forum. I hope this will prove a useful space for everyone to share their knowledge and experience of organic gardening.
I've moved all the older posts which are relevant to this section.
The most luxurious compost bins I've ever seen, in London's Edwardes Square. The 5 bins were taller than me, tucked away behind a hedge, and had an archway covering the path.

Going organic
12 Dec '05 3:23 am Hello
Thanks Bex for setting up the forum. Going organic is a very healthy option, almost everything I buy nowadays is organic. I have even started to use organic deodorant, which is much less harmful than non organic ones...
I've started a little veg garden by planting two small organic potatoes in two pots. I haven't got a garden space as such, just two different balconies, so I garden in pots. I planted a potatoe twice this year and twice I got a few potatoes, grown completely naturally, without pesticides. Now I'm planting organic ones, waiting to taste them already... Smile
Potatoes grow so quickly that it is a very nice veg to start an organic garden. They only need quite a lot of water, and rarely will they have white flies, but any other than don't require much special care.
I just planted them yesterday, so I'm not expecting potatoes until in a couple of months time. The weather? Doesn't matter much, never mattered to my potatoes there.
