Hearing him speak about large competitive trees and effects on soil gets me thinking about those forest floor plants, like ginseng, and the others that sometimes are hardly noticable most of the year. Makes me happy to be learning about and exploring nature every day, and imagine the magic happening among those big old trees and ancient root systems with the smaller plants among them.
Thank you Dr Cobb for another great presentation that has somehow help to make it clear where the Ectomycorrhizal and Endomycorrhizal differ, and thank you for reminding us that we need to keep working at getting the right balance that will help us achieve the successful compost full of beneficial organism. And thank you to every one on the panel you are all very helpful
Brian, I loved your answer about growing in containers. I grow many subtropical fruits on my land. Many are in the ground where I have been growing basically regeneratively for many years following Elaine’s advice to emulate nature. I haven’t had to use any chemicals for about 10 years now and the results are very pleasing. Because some of the Brazilian fruits I grow require me to keep a lower pH I also have many trees in containers of 15 to 45 gal where I can affect the pH more easily. I got away from time released fertilizers 10 years ago and use compost that I have been making here for 45 years now. It’s a big part of my soil mix along with peat moss, sandy loam and pumice among other things. A couple of times a year I top dress with fresh compost and I also feed the biology with fish emulsion. I believe my containers are very similar soil food web conditions to my in ground trees. I end up with many earthworms in my containers and I’m always happy to see mushrooms fruiting in them also. I believe my trees are healthier, more productive and more beautiful than other growers of these fruits who use osmocote etc. Thanks Brian for all that you and the crew do to carry the soil food web message. I couldn’t be happier with the results I get following Elaine’s pioneering work.
Elaine, I have learned so much from you so in appreciation I want to help you out. Stropharia rugosa mushrooms are not used to make wine, they are called wine caps because of the wine color of their caps. They are very beautiful mushrooms and I wish they would do well in my garden but alas, they don’t seem to do well in SoCal.
Around 33:24 minutes i just got an idea from Dr. Adam Cobb that could even be applied to the colonisation of the moon. Starting from a stage 0 to a stage 6, we have the unique opportunity to grow life on the moon, and even Mars.
I am from India 🇮🇳. नमस्ते। 🙏🏼 A small scale farmer with 15 acres of land, can you please tell me how to implement soil food web in acers? Also, tilling and ploughing and using pesticides, herbicide and other plant growth chemicals are common and used-to methods in my area, can you also guide how to make transition from that to more sustainable methods like this? One more thing burning stubble is the only way after wheat and rice crops, I am educated so I know it is very bad for the environment, can you also tell how to move away from that and adopt other more sustainable, less time consuming and cheap 😑 methods?
Hey, not from the video staff but a small farmer in formation too. Where I live they use burning as well after harvesting sugar cane. What I did was stop sugar cane for a while, make a one time use of a tractor and then plant soil food (sunflower, beans, oat, corn, etc). I guess it changes from region to region and crop to crop.
@@bejuco I have used rotavator on corn as well and worked just fine as compost for the next crop (green peas) and same goes for green peas stubble even Urda stubble is okay because it's been harvested by Thresher and it find use in covering the seeds and seedlings of next crop (Rice) but the main problem occurs in Rice and wheat, where the stubble is spread across the field there are some machines which makes rolls and cubes of the stubble but firstly, it's not in our area and second it costs us money, while we don't (and so does lot of other farmers) have livestocks to feed them the stubble we will collect...
Got my popcorn time to enjoy the show!!
Thanks Adam Cobb for such presentation. Pause and substance on Nature - Soil - Water interactions. Major event from Elaine & Team.👍🏞

Thanks so much for sharing about your work with growing plants via the soil food web approach!
Thank you for knitting the soil food web of knowledge among plant grower enthusiasts! 🤗
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
Thank you from Nigeria 👏👏👏👏👏👏

@bobmiller2281 Thank you for your comment. We will pass this along to Dr. Elaine
Extraordinary, the future is here!!!!
Amazing work!!!! Definitely joining the next webinar 👏👏👏👏
Thank you from Croatia, Europe ❤

Is there a way to keep biology going if you bring it inside without it being a big issue?
