In gardening, what is the opposite of organic?

Monty Sieloff: Organic gardening uses organic and natural soil amendments containing organic matter that are lower nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, (NPK) ratio then synthetic fertilizers. Organic fertilizers are made up from decomposed animal or vegetable remains or mineral rocks. The insoluble organic matter is broken down by the soils microbes (bio-degraders) for use by plants.The opposite method of gardening might be called synthetic or inorganic gardening. This type of gardening, like production gardening, uses petroleum based fertilizers to provide the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium needs of the plants. It also uses many inorganic chemical pesticides and herbicides to control insects, weeds, and fungus....Show more

Minh Lefrancois: In the term of food.It's opposite is Inorganic food such as Cabbage, Cauliflower etc. For more details visit on:http://gmdiethelp.com

Teodoro Lamond: For the best answers, search on this site https://shorturl.im/av1jgN! on-Organic! As pure, natural and healthy as one is able to make it in this day and age! (Just in case you are talking about mulch etc. then it would be IN-Organic. Stones, rubber mulch stuff I heard about etc. Non plant material in other words.) The NON use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, growth hormones - even the so called 'selective breeding' (like with chooks that cannot support their own breast weight by age of 12 weeks!!!!! ) etc. etc. etc. Chemicals and hormones used to create bigger and better and more cost efficient financial production of meat and fruits/veg etc. To control weeds, bugs, make bigger and fatter meat animals/poultry/fish etc. products (if you want to call living, thinking, feeling creatures that share most of our human emotions except for greed, hatred etc. 'meat and 'products') in the least amount of time. No I am not a vegan or vegarian .....whatever. I do, unfortunately, eat meat. Cannot change a diet of almost 60 years overnight!! I do, however have a few chooks that run around my acreage. E! ggs haven't tasted this good since I was a little girl and my family had backyard chooks in suburbia! My veggies aren't as big and pretty as those from the supermarket - and it is a serious pain in the backside keeping up with the weeds - but damn! They taste good!!!!! I am getting old, so my body has a few pains......but my wallet is not hurting as much as it would be otherwise!...Show more

Jannie Ariola: Miracle grow lol I refuse to put it in my garden plant steroids.

Jannie Ariola: non-organic.Grown with the use of pesticides.

Kara Tabian: Conventional Agriculture where synthetics are allowed, there is no soil fertility plan (the most important aspect of any Organic gardening/farming), GMO's are allowed along with sewage sludge.Inorganic is a chemistry term and has nothing to do with farming/gardening. Non-Organic is not an official term (Conventional farms would never, ever use that term)...Show more

Lolita Deschamp: Opposite Of Organic

Mar! co Stolarz: Inorganic, meaning you can use artificial fertilizers and judicially, sprays to keep your plants free of pests. However, please do remember that plants in flower are visited by bees which of course we do not want to kill. One of the main plant pests is the aphid also known as green fly and black fly. Many people use sprays to get rid but these can also affect bees! So what do I do? - I make a fairly strong solution of soft soap and spray that on the aphids in the evening which soon gets rid of them but does not affect bees....Show more
