Description
PESTAPALOOZA NEW YORK THIS SATURDAY! Grab your tickets NOW and I'll see you soon NYC... IPM Masterclass, pest fest, and afterparty :D First time guest Mark from GreenGro is on the program for an amazing deep dive into biochar, soil microbiology, and what comprises a thriving rhizosphere. Mark shares the idea of mimicking Terra Preta- the rich black earth that is found in the Amazonian Rainforest. This leads to a discussion of how ancient indigenous people's understood and utilized microbiology, and how the Amazon itself could be the result of a permaculture garden. Mark discusses why microbial diversity is so important, and how biochar plays such a big role in the life of your soil. He does however caution adding too much biochar, and talks about how he came up with the formula for his GreenGro Earthsine product (use code GROWCAST10). Mark and Jordan wrap the show by talking about the similarities between the human microbiome and the plant's rhizosphere, and how important it is to look at our own health as intently as we look after our plants' health... !FOOP BUY TWO GET ONE FREE!
