Jeff also shares practical tips for new organic gardeners (and experienced growers alike), including the importance of organic matter (even old roots) in your soil and not over-complicating the process. Whether you're growing cannabis or organic veggies, these insights will help you cultivate healthier, more vigorous plants naturally.
