July 12/10 Senga's Vlog Shows You Companion Planting For Pest Control

One thing I am always asked by fellow gardeners is 'How can I control pests in my garden - the organic way?' In today's vlog I will show you how the top three plants I use on my edible green roof garden that act as 'garden terminators.'

In essence companion planting is the planting of different crops in proximity (in gardening and agriculture), on the theory that they assist each other in nutrient uptake, pest control, pollination, and other factors necessary to increasing crop productivity. Certain combination of plants help each other and their proximity to each other is crucial to this success.
