The Three Basic Variations Of
Soils
| Rocks are the original
basis of all soils, and according to the degree of fineness to which
they
have been reduced, through centuries of decomposition by air, moisture

that
worked well or observed the relationship a particular plant had with
certain
insects, their experiences were passed on to the next generation.
Laboratory
research can now
prove that certain plants contain insecticides. There are many proven
examples
of plants that benefit others, such as French Marigolds that can be
used
to clear the ground of nematodes. The nematodes are attracted to the
roots
of the Marigold where they are unable to breed. The next generation of
nematodes are greatly reduced or eliminated. This is an effective
method
of protection for a crop susceptible to nematodes - such as tomatoes -
especially if the Marigolds are planted heavily in an area a season
before
planting the desired crop. ORDER
