Minerals and Micro-organisms


Minerals and micro-organisms are the basis of soil health, plant health and human health. Minerals and micro-organisms are the very essence of satisfying, problem-free productivity in the home garden.

Soil and plant health is not just about throwing nitrogen or phosphorous about the garden to fee our plants. It is more about balancing minerals. Good humus, healthy soil, is far more than applying lawn clipping compost to regenerate your microbe workforce. An imbalance of minerals and micro-organisms will result in poor production and unhealthy plants susceptible to pests and diseases.

Mineral imbalance is usually linked to calcium  and trace element deficiency, or to an excess of phosphorous and potassium, often due to over application of chook manure fertilisers. 

We use the Life-Force system from Nutri-Tech Solutions which contains cutting edge components that have previously only be available to large scale agriculture.

The Life-Force system was essentially developed for even the most inexperienced gardener.In my early days of gardening I was continually frustrated and disappointed by the sight of straggly substandard plants, that too often succumbed to pests and disease.  Many times I gave up as it was too hard, and a waste of my time ans effort. Now that I use Nutri-Tech products I harvest nutrient dense, medicinal foods for our family. We have a chemical free, organic garden and superb food that tastes delicious.

The home garden can be our own private wellness tool. The five step, Life-Force system has given me sensational results and the tastiest vegetables we have eaten in years.

gently does it



I read the following quote recently on Martha's Whole living site and for once couldn't argue. Healthy soils simply means healthy plants and food. What is good for the earth is good for us! No brainer!
Good fertilisers help ensure that your soil stays healthy. Yet applying too much, especially at the wrong time of year, will cause runoff, leading to groundwater pollution. Additionally, nitrate-based fertilisers (which are synthetic) often contain a high salt index that can cause root burning and dehydration. The alternative is to use organic gardening products judiciously. (To gardeners, the terms "organic" and "natural" mean products derived from a plant, animal, or mineral source, not those containing USDA-certified organic materials.) Organic fertilisers won't dry or burn your soil; they will rehabilitate soil quality and improve the general health of your garden.
