We can simulate all of these conditions using only natural and healthy materials. Insects can also be controlled without using chemicals by planting Marigolds and onions around the perimeter of the growing area. Tomato soil is not suited for all fruits and vegetables, but the basic soil structure and nutrient requirements are the same. Some plants need a more acidic or more alkaline soil. This can be corrected based on the specific needs of the plant.
Most plants fare reasonably well in a neutral or slightly alkaline soil.
Prepare the soil. Break up the soil in the fall and mix in compost, wood chips, fertilizer and minerals. Break up and turn over the soil to at least a depth of six to twelve inches. This will provide adequate nutrients to provide both growth and taste. Now, check the consistency of the soil.
