Why would I talk about Boron for your garden? Many people are adding "Rock Dust" to their gardens for additional minerals but why? I get it we need to have good stuff for our plants to grow but what do we need from our plants to keep us healthy? In some of my recent research I found it interesting how the body needs Boron. Boron is naturally occurring in many vegetables but is it enough? Some of the common body issues with a low Boron are: arthritis, osteoporosis, and tooth decay....All things that happen in the country as we get older.
I'm not hear to sell you one way of another but if you want to research further start with this article by Walter Last.

What does your research show?
My research told me to put Borax on my garden!
