Soil Food Web (Cannabis)

๐ŸŒฟ Cultivation First mentioned: Ep. 067

The complex ecosystem of microorganisms in soil that support plant health, including bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and nematodes. Using a microscope to observe and manage soil microbe populations is advocated as essential for organic cannabis cultivation.

Tom Alexander discussed being a 'diehard organic in-the-soil sun-grown' cultivator. The conversation covered using electron microscopes to photograph microbes working in the soil, the importance of compost and microbial diversity, and the need to keep a microscope next to the garden to monitor soil biology. This was presented as essential for both soil and hydro growing to understand what microbes are present.
