No, biointensive and organic gardens aren't the same. The grouping together of plants that are considered to complement each other is what differentiates biointensive from Organic Gardening. Biointensive and organic gardening are similar in that neither uses pesticides or insecticides for pest and weed control. Both include improving the soil through natural means.

But the only requirement for true organic gardening is that everything be grown naturally. No chemicals are used. Instead, soil improvement practices are carried out. Biointensive gardening takes that a step farther. Plants that complement each other are grouped together.

Will non-organic things in compost hurt organic gardens?

Yes, non-organic things in compost can hurt organic gardens. Compost is the end product of the decomposition of carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables into dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter called compost or humus. Non-organic matter will not break down with organic inputs and even will produce toxic environments for animals and plants in some cases.
