// From the Episode
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.
