Organic Vegitables

If you are serious about starting organic gardening and want someone to take you by the hand and help you to overcome any initial hurdles that you may be worried about then talk to someone at your local nursery.

It is merely a way of farming that does not make use of any sort of artificial products which includes eco-friendly fertilizers and pesticides. In short, you deal with nature to obtain what you prefer.

When selecting the right vegetable to plant, knowing which of these are appropriate to your soil and temperature is important.

If your home is an area that experiences droughts, purchase plants that do not consume too much water.

Prior to dropping your seeds into the soil, ensure the land is prepared by tilling the land so it is clear both of rocks and weeds.

The next step will be to bring garden compost, bone meal or rock phosphate and greensand to your soil to supply it with nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium.

If the pH level of the soil is too high, bring lime or sulphur to readjust it.

One more thing you need to do before planting the seeds is putting in natural eco-friendly fertilizer. You can use recycled leaves, grass clippings, coffee grounds, eggshells and kitchen area waste which ought to be applied a month prior to the start of planting.

Brain-eating amoeba linked to sinus remedy for colds

A sinus-flushing device used to relieve colds and allergies has been linked to a deadly brain-eating amoeba.

Louisiana's state health department issued a warning about neti pots - which look like mini watering cans, that are used by pouring salty water through one nostril.

It follows two recent deaths - a 51-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man from the 'brain-eating amoeba' Naegleria fowleri.

It is thought the amoeba entered their brains when they used the devices.

Both victims are thought to have used tap water, instead of distilled or sterilised water as recommended by the manufacturers.

Dr Raoult Ratard, Louisiana State Epidemiologist, said: 'If you are irrigating, flushing, or rinsing your sinuses, for example, by using a neti pot, use distilled, sterile or previously boiled water to make up the irrigation solution.

'Tap water is safe for drinking, but not for irrigating your nose.'

He added that it is important to rinse the irrigation device after each use and leave open to air dry.
