A plant “exudes” (or leaks) in some cases half or more(!) of the food they make by photosynthesis out into the rhizosphere to feed and cultivate the community of fungi and bacteria there. In return, these microbes use their enzymes to mine dozens of macro- and micronutrients from the soil matrix for their plant ally. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/306ce79f-bfc8-43ac-82ec-a142aa584dc6/fungi7-mushroom-g439ff3834_1920.webp Learn - How does Nature Do it? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/943115ee-5bfa-4689-a108-0deddf6d10d1/seedling-w-wo-mycorrhizae-KTG-.webp Learn - How does Nature Do it? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/7db8d757-481b-489e-9063-2c6a0297f3a7/tractor-and-eroding-soil-biggered.webp Learn - How does Nature Do it? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/e457dfdd-eec1-485d-a60d-db8e81ff4fbf/eric-prouzet-rdqz5YXcUlg-unsplash.jpg Learn - How does Nature Do it? - There’s a solution! Or a..soil-ution? In recent decades, soil restoration ecologists have found that the damage to our soils is totally reversible.. and fast. Dirt can be easily inoculated with the microorganisms that are missing from its soil food web, and within a single growing season be transformed back into living soil. That, in a nutshell, is what we do. Our first step is to assess the state of your soil’s nutrient-cycling food web using a compound shadowing microscope. In this way we can estimate the amounts of beneficial bacteria, fungi, protozoans and nematodes that are in your soil– or not, as is often the case. This reveals which members of the soil food web we need to reintroduced in order to restore full nutrient-cycling and pest and disease resistance to your plants. We also check for any potential disease-causers. If we find them, there are simple tests, such as for soil compaction, that can help us strategize how to resolve the effects of past or present disturbances to your soil. https://www.weboflifelandcare.com/learn/healthy-soil-is-living-soil monthly 0.5 2026-03-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/75561972-7ba5-45e2-b390-237b9ffc2042/dirt-to-soil-cross-section2.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/d2cd51a4-2388-487e-aa54-ff621e06f928/soilfoodweb-image-nrcs.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil - Soil Life in Balance So.. I’ll give you the bad news first. Most soils managed by us “civilized” humans (many millions of acres) have been damaged by our over-use of salt fertilizers (think Miracle Grow), pesticides, herbicides, or slicing-dicing tillage. Sadly, this list goes on. The disturbances go so deep that the fungi, and beneficial microbes like protozoans and nematodes, often virtually disappear from soil ecosystems. This leaves imbalanced, bacterially-dominated soils where weedy plants thrive, but most more complex plants don’t get what they need to be nutrient-dense or disease-resistant. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/6cbe567e-f4fa-4e5d-98f8-bdb857ef3fd6/Joshua+Microscope.jpg Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil - Here’s how it works: First, with a microscope I visually assess a sample of your soil to find out which members of your soil’s food web are abundant, sparse, or not there at all. Direct microscopic analysis is the most powerful way to assess soil health. In a basic soil biology assessment I measure the biomass of fungi and bacteria, count beneficial nematodes and protozoans.. and then consider: does this soil look like soil does in Nature? Soil scientists now widely recognize that the state of a soil’s biology tells you more about how healthy and fertile it is than anything else. But most soil labs are slow to adopt methods that allow a direct assessment of a soil’s biology. Fortunately, labs like mine with this capability are beginning to pop up in more and more places. I’m excited to bring the resource to our region. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/651d027f-366f-4521-aaad-0605497a18f6/Microscope+View.jpg Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil - Make it stand out Here’s a microscope field of view of a sample of soil with good fungal diversity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/1771785033560-VC8FO8XTA2YMG3XVB90C/wood-chips-etc-scaled.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/1771785033770-PHXOYPQI8X5COU99MUGX/corn-and-food-scraps-scaled.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/1771785036051-RMZ6SI0OS3AHHXDSUC7M/materials-in-piles-scaled.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/697e084d785435542af1450e/1771784079269-Q8AS37C0EU1YNRJ0W1I6/full-pile.webp Learn - Healthy Soil is Living Soil - Make it stand out One of my recent hot compost piles, cooking at 160 F.
