Can globe artichokes benefit from organic soil amendments in terms of phytochemicals?

OpenAI's Answer

Yes, globe artichokes can benefit from organic soil amendments in terms of phytochemicals. Studies have shown that organic soil amendments can enhance the concentration of phytochemicals in artichoke heads. For instance, artichokes grown in soil amended with alfalfa treatment had higher concentrations of phytochemicals compared to those grown with animal-based fertilizers. This suggests that the type of organic amendment used can influence the phytochemical content of globe artichokes, potentially enhancing their nutritional and therapeutic value.
