Going Organic!

This is the first year for me to attempt to go totally organic for all my plants and veggies. Even my cuttings that Im overwintering have only had vermicompost and liquid seaweed as food/nutrient value. One difference I have noticed in my cuttings from past years is that with the vermicasts in the pots the cuttings never seem to droop as in the past. In the past after giving them miracle gro or and seaweed they would after a week or droop but not this winter.

Anyway Ive only been doing the vermicomposting for about a year but now for this season I will have enough to try on all my outside plants and vines and I can hardly wait, mainly waiting for a sustained warmup. And when those first leaves appear I want to make and add some worm tea made from the castings. Im hoping the tea will deter some of the aphid attacks on the vines.
