What is a flavonone? And is it related to terpenes or flavonoids? I’d be mindblown if the root rips were able to communicate with microbes in the soil via these compounds, not just farm them. Maybe it’s like a homing beacon molecule🤔
Great stuff as always Matt. I just brought some wild roses back from the brink with my teas, my "tube bag" rose bushes from Aldi/Walmart are exploding in growth. Rather surprising really.. Climbing roses grew 3.5ft in a week after a 1" rain following my tea application. The Japanese beetles are nomming on it though so it must have a great flavor :P A couple questions I would like to posit for you - Can or Have you documented the effects of foliar fungicide applications to soil microbes or the exudates? I know excessive runoff is bad but if I spray sparingly and only under conditions where disease is particularly bad - Am I crashing soil populations regardless of the amount of spray? Also, I have read a lot that there is a whole host of beneficial effects that the use of Aspirin applied foliar to the plants can elicit an immune reaction. I put 2x200mg powdered tabs per gallon with my fungicide sprays. Does this affect root exudates or root growth? I suppose I could check next year with some controls.. How about microbe populations within/around the plants? Curious to see what kind of reaction the roots. Nightshades are notorious for this working on them.
If you have a beetle problem, you need more nutrition not more biocides. You'll always set yourself up for failure using chemical poisons imo. Once your plants are synthesizing proteins to their genetic potential, beetles won't be able to digest your roses 🌹 anymore. Keep feeding them. If you're really motivated, do a tissue analysis. That would entail sending leaves to a lab like novacropcontrol to see what precisely the nutritional deficiency is. Then you can feed exactly that.
Thnx for the book tip, putting it on my to buy list. Have you looked at the studies of these exudates and on what soils they were done? Were they done in real soil or in dirt? Is there a difference in exudates between the 2? Does a plant stop producing certain exudates when it doesn't get the expected response (is there already some evidence suggesting that theory) ? Is a healthy plant dropping the same amount of dead cells vs a plant that lacks certain nutrients? A lot of the scientific studies out there are done on soils that lacked the necessary biology to be called a soil, and are not representative for healthy soils. Some of the principles of hydrology are even wrong because of this (what happens when water goes through organic matter).
Привет из России! Мэтт скажи,а ты когда нибудь считал сколько нужно растению вдохнуть воздуха чтобы синтезировать один грамм глюкозы? Нет? Я скажу,2500 литров воздуха, то есть 3 кг! Кто нибудь задавался этим вопросом? С уважением Константин.
Humbled by how little we know. There is an ant species that farms a myko and that myko sends signals to the ant what plant it wants; and communicates when that said plant realises it is being attacked and releases toxins that damages the mycelium. Those ants know more than us.
Matt Powers kicks regenerative ass, dirt to soil ...gaining critical mass!!!!!!!
There is publications from the Technical University in Munic about plant roots also exsudating lipids for their symbionts. That book is a must have.
Yeah Matt! Keep going with this series bro! Do Secondary Metabolites next!!! 😁❤👍👍
Yes!!!!
Can’t wait
I always appreciate your videos 🙌🙏
Great job ! Love these presentations !

The results of "regular" exudate production would be cool to see in comparison to root shedding promulgated by grazing and mowing-caused root pruning.
Kool channel ✌️😎
Thanks for being here :)
@@MattPowersSoil you bet .✌️

Beneficial microbes are on leaves too, not just in soils
@@peter.knupfferwhy compost tea is an effective foliar application.

Wow. Good question.
