QUESTIONS OF NUTRITION - FERTILISING AND CONDITIONING THE SOIL (INTRODUCTION)
If you work your own garden, any manure you use should be organic. Compost, bone meal, hoof and horn meal and forest soil can all be used for soil improvement. According to your soil's particular need, if it is loamy or peaty, it may require stone meal. All these natural materials are appropriate for organic fertilising. Strong chemical or artificial fertilisers should be avoided at all costs. The keeping quality and the flavour of produce grown in organic soil are vastly superior to that of produce grown in soil treated with inorganic fertilisers.
If we are to benefit from the minerals in the plants we grow we should avoid boiling them, as the minerals pass into the water. It is better to steam the vegetables or, if cooked in water, use the bare minimum so that hardly any is left when the cooking has been completed.
