I have been dabbling for years, but the COVID lockdown has given me the motivation to get into my plant and vegetable garden with homeopathic texts in hand, to sort out some pest problems, nutrient deficiencies, and experiment with a few homeopathic hacks to find the agrohomeopathy remedies to match my needs.
