LeAnne asked:
What are the requirements for a vegetable to be called “organic”?
Yippee! I’m growing my own organic veggies.
I’m not going to sell them, they’re for my own personal use.

I’m planning on starting my own organic garden, I’ve never been successful at growing much. My strawberries always get eaten by bugs. I’m pretty sure we have good soil here, (I live in washington), but I’m not sure how to keep pest out.
May I add that I’m not an experienced gardener so helpful answers are appreciated, instead of rude sarcasm. Thanks!

Hope C asked:
All of the books I have read, say that you MUST use certified seed potatoes. Is there any reason I shouldn’t seed out some of the organic fingerling potatoes I already have? I can understand not using regular storebought potatoes, but shouldn’t organic be okay? Same question about sweet potatoes. Any tips or advice will be appreciated!

angel_fish1791 asked:
My tomatoes are doing great but a spider mite infestation has developed. I like to keep things organic and I’m having trouble getting information on ways to deter spider mites on tomatoes. I’ve heard that diatomaceous earth or salt water work through severe dehydration of the insects, will this also cause the tomatoes to shrivel and dehydrate? Does garlic water work well against spider mites?

Jacquelyn M asked:
I just moved into a house with a lemon tree and some oleanders. I bought some organic fertilizer for them, but my boyfriend told me that switching from chemical to organic fertilizer can kill plants. I don’t know why this would be the case, but I wanted to double check before I fertilize them.
