From Basic Gardening To Organic Farming

Most people have a small secret love for nature and plants. It is with this hidden calling that one would have attempted to grow a plant at a certain point.
Sadly, one by one, plants begin dying and the conclusion usually ends with:
– I have no Green Fingers
– I’m a plant killer
– I give up
Why is it so hard to grow anything ? Whenever we meet gardening gurus, seeing their plants growing so fabulously, so effortlessly…… and when we look at our own pathetic plants……oh how we would wish the gurus could offer us a tip or two…….
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there are some generous experts out there who can SHARE ALL the practical tips with you?
Tips like how to keep your plants alive? Even better, how to grow like an Experienced Organic Farmer?
