I've enjoyed binge watching your videos since recently discovering your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, your thoughts and suggestions in a clear and concise manner.
Video is good but Adding food for bacteria only keeps bacteria alive till the next feed and not self sustaining after initial inoculation. Better way is to link bacteria growth to plant root system so sugar released by plant roots makes it self sustaining. It works for me.
Thank you for the information, I have started brewing some lactobacillus bacteria for the garden for abit of fun, but I was worried about if it was native to this area and wasn't sure if its such a great idea to just add the one strain of bacteria I'm gonna go and watch your compost tea one next.
I garden to stay away from ' BUYING ' anything - It's easy to ' garden out of stores ' - if you cant get away from stores then just be more efficient with resources and shop at the grocer - I'm not putting sugar on the damn garden - adios
Thank you for the comment. Everyone has different reasons for gardening and different principles that govern how they do things. That is what makes it such a wonderful and diverse activity and community to be involved in. I agree that with the correct use of resources, over time it is possible to move away from reliance on supplies bought in from elsewhere and do things in a more self-sufficient way. That has to be the objective for most people where food, quality and human health are concerned.
so, you've proven that specific soil bacteria (according to scientific literature) is lacking in specific soil and proven that you can increase their number with specific return on investment of money, time, and work on a long term basis? making lots of generic assertions that are not tested, is not how to spend our money, time, and work.
Get Bacteria abundant...then fungal infiltration is guaranteed. Fungi eat and thrive in the stuff bacteria make. Bacteria and Fungi work together and both work with living plant roots.
But bacteria and fungi thrive in a bit different environment. Fungi's job is to digest those tough material (cellulose, lignin) into the Soil Food Web. Bacteria dominant soil is not preferable for free, for example.
They certainly can do. Soil pH plays an important role (as does texture), with bacteria thriving in alkaline situations whereas fungi often does better in a more acidic environment.

Molasses contains sucrose which is not a monosaccharide, a simple sugar. It’s a disaccharide.

And how does one know where the numbers are in ones garden?
How can the pH be raised from an acid level? The water might have sulfur.
You raised more questions than answers It's almost like you're just teasing us to get us to watch the next video

Molasses contains lots of mineral and sugars that are helpful to soil bacteria

Chicken shit is magic
It is a good fertiliser and can help drive up bacteria numbers too
Urine?

It's certainly going to help, though in my experience not always guaranteed. Bacteria and fungi are definitely the friends of living plant roots.

great discussion ty, sorry i cant add.
Nice wig
Thank you. I like to take a little time in the morning to give my hair an extra fluff. 🤣
