The best garden I ever had was when I used chicken litter. I also had some tall weeds! I wish I could find some. Back then my dad and I drove up to a chicken farm and the farmer used his back hoe and dumped a scoop full into my dad’s truck free of charge.

I don’t buy organic in the store because it’s always more expensive and I don’t really see why I should think it’s somehow better.

But the “organic” fertilizer I used last season was a real game changer because my yields really went crazy compared to the Walmart fertilizer I had been using for years.

And I grew all of my vegetables in containers, including my corn, and I’m sure I saved water and was also able to concentrate the effectiveness of my fertilizer because I grew them that way.
