I would like to know where to draw the line between chemical sprays and organical sprays.
You get insecticides and other sprays with a biodegradable ingredient that is considered by some as chemical. So I am not allowed to use it. Although it breaks down so I can eat the plant's fruit the next day.
You get organical sprays such as baking soda, that is really also a chemical in my opinion. You don't get that naturally. I am allowed to use this.
Sulpher is considered as organically, but that is a raw mineral/chemical. The same with Copper.
When several minerals are ditilled to form a new "chemical" it is not allowed, but if wine is distilled to alcohol will that be allowed? (Vinegar, beer, etc.)
The most hardy organically gardeners however will not hesitate to use chemicals as medication when they get sick or when suffering from a life threatening illness.
Where can I get clear guidelines?
