Garden Remedies
Today I wanted to let you know about a great book that you are sure to want to add to your bookshelf for your garden. This book is chock full of great remedies for your garden and the author even tells you which ones work and which ones don’t and why.
The name of the book is The Truth About Garden Remedies: What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why. You can just click on that link to purchase it or on the picture of the book. It will be a great addition to your garden library for organic gardening methods. The author is Jeff Gillman. He has a Ph.D and is an associate professor in the Department of Horticultural Science at the University of Minnesota. I even found a video for you to watch with the author who explains a couple of the remedies and even one that isn’t in the book. You can watch that short video here:

For a long time I look here in regular intervals by and read the interesting and well written contributions. Here I would like to thank you for it once and leave greetings from Bavaria!
I don’t know how much of this is true, but the best organic fertiliser for your lawn is to leave the cuttings on the grass, rather than collect them? Anybody know if there is any truth in this?

Welcome Matti! It is nice to hear from you!
Nick Oak,
Yes, you can leave the grass clippings on your lawn and it is very beneficial. The nutrients are returned to the soil, and the soil is what feeds the plant. However, be very careful that you are using a mulching mower when you do this. It cuts the grass into smaller pieces that can break down easier. If you leave long grass clippings on your lawn, then they could smother the lawn and it will die.
Hope this helps!
