Proper Pruning and Re-thinking Plant Diseases
From the Kitchen Gardens website comes a really great post on proper pruning. We’re taught that the best approach when pruning is to remove the three D’s: Damaged, Diseased, and Dead. This article challenges that belief and goes into some very interesting explanations why that might not be best.
We tend to think insects and diseases are making our plants unhealthy, but actually, they are there because our plants are unhealthy. This is one of the biggest shifts we need to make in our thinking when moving to organic gardening practices.
Worth a read.
