Start with potted plants from Kimball fruit farm. They have foot high tomato plants, herbs, and other plants you can start with.
IPM is a process called integrated pest management.
Instead of using harmful chemicals, Kimballs uses environmental factors to control the pest population of their farms. They introduce friendly bugs to their farm, and those bugs in turn take care of all of the harmful garden pests. Environmentally friendly, with no artificial growth hormones. Kimball fruit farm is committed to having the best ingredients.
