I started gardening that way many years ago. I've just recently moved all
edibles to the backyard and all ornamentals to the front. That way I can be
sure that I don't use anything iffy for us or the dog in the backyard
edibles. I use the disease/insect/fertilizer for the roses in the front and
didn't want that stuff in the soil with edibles. I still battle with nature
as naturally as possible, but I've given up on aphids and mildew on the
roses. Besides, while I can keep my dog from doing his stuff all over my
edibles, I can't control the neighbor's dogs.
