Soil health
The four best methods to build and maintain a healthy soil are:
- Adding compost to add nutrients and create a good structure for plant roots to penetrate.
- Minimise digging to avoid disturbing the complex soil life.
- Plan your planting to make best use of the available soil nutrients and minimise pests and diseases.
- Grow beneficial plants like green manures, which hold nutrients in the soil and help suppress weeds.
