Introduction
Every year, millions of people die from hunger, or experience hunger, food insecurity, and the health effects of a poor diet (such as cancer, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, or malnutrition). Many people have limited access to healthy food, or any food. Yet just one acre of land can provide the space needed to grow enough food for up to 3 people.
Plants and mushrooms have always been required for the health and survival of all animals, including humans. Many of the products that people consume and use (such as food, medicine, shelter, clothing, textiles, fuels, fertilizers, soaps, paints, oils, waxes, glues, ropes, lubricants, plastics, cosmetics, paper, seeds, spores, and much more) are derived from plants and mushrooms.
Cultivating plants and mushrooms need not involve the use of toxic chemicals (such as toxic synthetic chemical fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, preservatives, pharmaceutical drugs, hormones, dyes, or antibiotics), synthetic materials (such as mRNA ‘vaccines’, or other synthetic genetic materials), or anything that is genetically or biologically modified or engineered (i.e., GM, GMO, GE, GEO, BE, BEO, etc.). Growing plants or mushrooms also does not require materials or methods that pollute the environment, or cause harm to beneficial inhabitants or consumers (microbes, plants, or animals) of an environment. Small scale organic gardening or farming at home or at least locally, can also reduce or eliminate the need for the premature harvest and transport (to allow produce to ripen or finish ripening during transport, and increase the shelf life of produce after transport) of produce.
Provided herein, is information that you can use, to quickly and easily learn how to grow and harvest your own organic garden, so that you can:
❖ Save money.
❖ Produce agricultural goods, to use, consume, preserve, store, share, give, or sell.
❖ Avoid the premature harvesting and transport of plants or mushrooms.
❖ Know how your agricultural goods were produced and harvested.
❖ Ensure that the agricultural goods you produce are safe, high quality, healthy, non-toxic, organic, environmentally friendly, contain what you do want (such as nutritional and medicinal properties), but do not contain what you do not want (such as toxic chemicals, synthetic materials, graphene, feces, insects, plastic, glass, anything that is genetically or biologically modified or engineered, etc.).
Preparation
Organic gardening begins with planning and preparation. Planning, preparation, and management (i.e., providing and maintaining environmental conditions that are needed for a healthy and productive organic garden), will generally determine the overall quality and quantity of crops produced from an organic garden. An organic garden plan should include information such as plant or mushroom selection, quantity of selected plants or mushrooms to grow, garden size (space needed for the garden), garden location (where the garden will be located), supplies needed, budget, resources (needed and available), and gardening method(s) to use. Your plans and preparations for an organic garden will likely be different than someone else’s, due to differences in your personal preferences, budget, and local environmental conditions (such as the landscape, elevation, longitude, latitude, climate, pollution, etc.).
An organic garden may be as expensive and complicated, or affordable and simple, as you see fit. A greenhouse, grow lights, HVAC system, timers, electronic humidity control and more, may be used for organic gardening – but none of this is necessary. What is necessary is to plan and prepare for the organic garden you wish to grow, then to follow through with your plans and preparations, and to be capable and willing to change plans and preparations if necessary.
Organic gardening can take place inside or outside, in a container (such as a bag, box, tray,
