I’m interesting in eating organic vegetables. So growing them by my own might be a good idea. However, the weather in the southern California is getting warm. So, I’m not sure what kind of vegetables that I can start now. Thanks in advance.

I live in central Florida on near the coast and its typical florida weather here. Could someone point me in the direction of how to start a vegetable garden particularly full of peppers, cucumbers, and lettuce?

With Miracle Grow I get the best tomatoes. Pretty much all the vegetables we eat around here come from the garden, and we buy the Miracle Grow by the ton. Recently someone suggested that this might be harmful to my family, but I’m not sure if they are correct. Especially since I use the Organic Miracle Grow anyway. Any comments anyone?

If every fruit or vegetable plant get infected by bugs and insects, from which we have a lot in our nature, how can people grow fruits and vegetables organically, without having those bugs on the plants?

Daniel T asked:
I’m beginning to grow my own vegetables and herbs, and I’m curious on where to buy the seeds from. The town I live in only has a wal-mart which sells seeds, however, I do buy organic produce and was wondering whether or not to purchase seeds at walmart. Would it matter where I get the seeds from? or not really?

Linotte asked:
I am asking this because sometimes I can’t find organic fruits, vegetables or meats in the stores. Or sometimes I can find them but they are so expensive that the baby food jars–even organic ones–turn out being significantly cheaper. What is your opinion of the healthier option?
Total Recipe Hound: No, what I meant is that sometimes I can’t find the organic ingredients to make the baby food at home. Gerber food is always available. But if Gerber is always made out of organic ingredients, then why do they have a separate organic line?

I live in London and would like to join a vegetable box scheme but I’d like to find one which emphasizes local and seasonal produce rather than organic produce. I am not a supporter of organic produce and would like to be able to instead support the 96% of british farmers who do not grow organically.

gg asked:
I have a 35 square meter field in Tokyo next to farms that use pesticides and fertilizers. This is only my second year and my yield for various plants is small. I lose entire crops to various insects (not birds or animals). All the farmers around me insist I must use fertilizer and pesticide. Can anyone recommend natural pesticides and fertilizers that might be available in Japan? I heard Neem oil is effective as a pesticide for some plants. I grow: daikon radish, radishes, broccoli, various beans, onions, scallions, carrots, leafy vegetables, and several others seasonally. Any guidance would be appreciated.
