Some organic proponents only say to stop using the chemicals. Howard Garrett, in the Organic Manual, explains in detail what to do instead. His \u201cwhat to do\u201d is the organic method. The book opens with the advice to stop the use of toxic chemicals, pesticides, and synthetic fertilizers, but Garrett then goes on, in great detail, about the practical alternatives. This is one of the few books effective for use coast to coast and border to border. The organic method has no geographic boundaries.\n<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The best kept secret of all (uncovered in this book) is that the organic program is better in every way. Whether it\u2019s growing beautiful landscaping or delicious, healthy food crops, the Organic Manual explains bed preparation, planting, pest control, and compost making. It also covers natural living advice. The organic method is the most efficient, most cost effective, and most fun of any approach. It also produces the best trees, shrubs, flowers, fruits, and vegetables that you\u2019ll ever grow.<\/p>\n<p>\nPaperback $18.95<\/p>\n<p>\nPages: 192<\/p>\n<div><strong>Buy in your favorite bookstore, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.squareup.com\/store\/dirtdoctorbooks\"><span>online<\/span><\/a> or by emailing the Dirt Doctor at info@dirtdoctor.<\/strong><\/div>\n<hr>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dirtdoctor.com\/books\"><span>HOWARD&#8217;S BOOKS<\/span><\/a><span> <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"dirtdoctor-library":[],"class_list":["post-11708","library","type-library","status-publish","hentry","category-d","no-post-thumbnail"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Organic Manual 5th Edition Book - The Dirt Doctor<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Organic Manual 5th Edition Book - The Dirt Doctor\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Organic Manual 5th Edition Book THE ORGANIC MANUAL &#8211; 5TH EDITION HOWARD GARRETT Around the world, everyone is talking about environmental issues and the concept of \u201cgoing green.\u201d Natural organic gardening and landscaping are among the most important parts of that movement.
