    Hi folks. A couple of times now it`s been suggested that I should let nature take it`s course regarding a couple of issues. My question is, dont we ALL tamper with nature every time we add fertilizers or try to eliminate pests and diseases or pinch out plants ? (there`s probably an endless list). Just a thought. Cheers...freddy.

    Gardening in its self is tampering with nature.
    If nature had its way there would just be weeds.
    I dont mind weeds, but in the right places.:D

    You should see my meadow. Its very wild but we "manage" thistles and docks. Everyone picks what they do and dont like and we are all different.
