I usually ignore your posts because I presumed that it is just
"ego tripping" but due to the lack of posts today, I browsed your
site. I was surprised that you were trolling for advertising. In
'Merica that usually means any integrity that you previously had
is now subservient to those who pay the bills. Your definition of
"Crop Rotation" is "not growing vegetables from the same family
2 years running on the same ground as this can lead to a build up
of pests and diseases and also the depletion of nutrients in the
soil". Impugned moral character aside, in your crop rotation
section, under the heading of "roots" you say,"DO NOT MANURE, DO NOT
LIME, RAKE IN GROWMORE 2 WEEKS BEFORE SOWING OR PLANTING. This would
seem to imply that you still rely on fertilizers made from fossil
fuels. No interest in "green manure"? Why not use manure? What
about bio-mass and compost? You mentioned nothing about rotating
crops with nitrogen fixing pulses.

You didn't give organic gardening advice. You gave indu$trial
gardening advice. I doubt I will look again at your site as it
seems it likely would be a waste of my time.
