Spring Gardening While Saving
Our Earth
Because most soils lack
essential nutrients for plant
growth, plants need to be
fertilized.
What are the environmental issues
of synthetic fertilizers? Synthetic
fertilizers can stimulate and
improve your soil's fertility quickly
but can do little to improve the
texture of your soil.
Because synthetic fertilizers
promote fast growth at the expense
of healthy plants, food crops
produced using chemical fertilizers
are likely to have a lower nutritional
value than they should be.
Typical fertilizers provide little
nourishment for plants, but they
might be lacking calcium, zinc,
and iron, which are also equally
as important for the health and
well-being of plants.
Suffocating weed growth and
algae blooms Runoff from
synthetic fertilizers grows
aquatic plants in a body of
water.
How do synthetic fertilizers affect
humans? Scientists have known
for a long time that chemical
fertilizers can increase many
health risks for humans and
livestock.
Using organic fertilizers in
the spring Starting with
good soil is the best way to
grow healthy plants.
These natural fertilizers don't
leach into waterways and
pollute the water as do many
synthetic fertilizers.
