Dr Elaine my question is pertaining bacteria or fungal dominated soil for cannabis specifically growing Auto flowers compared to Photoperiod Fungal Dominated soil or Bacteria Dominated Soil which is better for Auto flowers ??? Curious because Auto flowers usually only take 90 days to grow seed to harvest very fast life cycle I would love your opinion. Thank you 💚🙏🤙
Hello Dr. Eileen Ingram, do you have an email that would allow me to contact you for a little correspondence please? I would greatly appreciate a little time to ask you a few questions if I may? Thank you very much Sincerely Richard Bell.
As they say, a little knowledge is often a dangerous thing. I have studied some soil science (years ago), but this talk has made me realise I am still a novice with much to learn. Thank you Elaine for explaining things in such an easy to understand manner. I look forward to watching many more of your video presentations Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Its official, you saved my compost Dr Elaine!👍🏻🙏😘👌approx 1\3 - 1\2 of a cubic yd. I have installed it on my lawn, and it has immediately shown health, and response. Thank You and the awesome panelists who gave their input, Farmers, biologists, nerds...all off your input and knowledge is gratefully acknowledged, you all taught me sumpin. lol. 🇨🇦👊🏻👨🏻🏭✨💖🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! I am a big fan. I am just discovering your work but really appreciate what you are doing. This very significant work could be the saving grace for our planet!. I hope to take your course sometime soon and help to contribute to the good work you are doing for this planet and for us all.
It’s important to understand that chemical fertilizers just wash away. Have you ever wondered why the soil in the woods doesn’t necessarily need to have fertilizer. It may have grown for hundreds of years. Truthfully the microbes are doing such an important 7:13 job for nutrition. The soil is there and is the mineral elements. The organic material being broken down by the organisms through their production of acids in the soil. They can break down anything:silver, gold, titanium.
I have followed you little, you are special, you know that you are very helpful, maybe most go out of curiosity to your talks, but it would be nice if it were because they were convinced that you will do something for them in their farming systems, it is what I make known to my present when I make a talk. God bless you.
I just thought of something. Do we buy soil to put under the driveway before we pave it with asphalt & add dirt to fhe new raised garden beds? No. Why. Whsts the difference, and now we need to understand further that synthetic fertilisers turn your lawn & garden soil to Dirt. I wanted to draw an obvious line between the 2 products, then pose the argument for showing at least showing an interest in the Soil Food Web.🙏
Hi Dr Elaine, I'm Tien. I'm from Vietnam. I really want to join your school and learn everything about soil from you. Is your school available in Vietnam ?
@Tien Ngo To learn more about our course offerings, please let us know about your goals and interests so that we can help you find the course(s) that will work best for you. Send to info@soilfoodweb.com
Just wondering if cattle and or other livestock are getting antibiotics which then plays into the end soil biology … then what about dewormers that are given to livestock…horses.. then does that goes into the soil..does that then kill the worms that we need in the soil?
Dr. Ingham hello. I graduated 91 In Plant and Soil specializing in golf course turf and construction. We were taught to nuke everything due to weed competition and the pathology in a transition zone is wreched. I guess we were the Empire and I specifically was Darth Vader
An interesting and easy to understand presentation by the eminent Dr Ingham for understanding mistakes that we are repeatedly committing and stripping the Soil and Earth of its basic natural strength to bring food to your systems and build a healthy ecology. The beginning of everything understandably the food systems and our survival vitals.
I put my selfmade Compost in a container and put 25 ltr rain water to it and mix it well, and than I blow 6 ours pressed air bubbles trough it and than mix it 1 - 4 wth pure rain water and give it to my allotment !🤠
I have a jack fruit tree over 20 years old located in south central India. It used to give good fruits until 4 years ago until I cut a water harvesting trench about 6 feet away. Since then it's gone haywire and forms very small fruit and few larger fruits mature much earlier and get spoilt or cracked on the tree. Would welcome any answers and solutions to this problem. Thanks in advance.
Do anyone have any input of using Effective Microorganisms 1 or EM1 on their plant or incorporating it with compost/compost tea for plant? It is to my understanding that the microorganisms from the EM1 is made up from mostly from anaerobic bacteria (maybe im wrong here but the process of making EM is anaerobic process). And we know most anaerobic organisms produce bad stuff (toxins, pathogens)causing diseases. Yet,most study made regarding the use of EMs show spectacular results increasing plant health. There might be some info that im missing (not a scientist) ,would be glad if someone have an opinion about the matter.
Excellent. What do you guys think of Bokashi? Advanced EM bokashi works with bone meal etc in anerobic compost but also amends soil or makes a soil drench tea or foliar. Wondering if it helps with protozoa along with bad bacteria? Will it effect my friendly fungi at all? From what I've read it's a safe win. So far so good. Just getting some nematodes finally for my no till indoor plants. Seeing this makes sense why they work so well and hang around.
I'm building my compose pile and in zone 6 I am soon to get adding soil from different areas to have diversity after I get the pile heating and mixing 3 times after cooking and cool down add that diversity, Shur hopefully have a good tea Already garden loads of last year compose and 4 inches of leaf mulcher leafs
Hello mam I have one question is “save soil” project by Sadhguru scientifically sound plan? Also you are on their website so are you involved in this project? Thanks in advance!
How can she assert that fungi have existed for 3.5 billion years? LUCA is thought to be that old, fungi were way later. And of course fungi has been around longer than human beings because they are on completely different taxonomic levels. Fungi is a Family, equivalent to Metazoa, and animals have certainly been around for a while.

Great Presentation - what I am left confused about is the claim that your biology in your gut would improve when you eat more soil(-organisms). If I remember correctly most of your bacteria in the gut are obligate anaerobic so not the guys you find in healthy soils. From Jack Gilbert I learnt that soil bactera and gut bacteria are a complete different set of species?
Paddies are only flooded at certain times. Many species can cope with wet conditions using a variety of mechanisms. The vast majority of plants however, and most food crops need friable soil. Even air pruning for roots is used in some containers.
@@katiekane5247 Interested in knowing more about air pruning in roots. Does coconut palm tree be classified as one of those tree withstand wet conditions. Also how to aerate clay soil if you may be able shed some insights. Appreciate your effort.
@@gbaranikumar I think the best way to keep soils well oxygenated and friable, is to prepare the land thoroughly as a once-off: Level the field, then use a chisel plough (it's a ripper with springs that has minimal surface disturbance, and no lateral compaction) to rip and cross rip. The crumbler will ensure a smooth finish. Never ever disturb the soil surface again. Try to keep something growing in the field all year around, to increase soil life. Coat your seeds with a compost tea or some form of biological stimulant. Your soils will change over time, by becoming darker at the top and more porous - it works in clays too.
Please reconsider your advocacy for disease ridden animal agriculture as it can never be ecologically sustainable. The loss of wild areas to agriculture is the leading cause of the current mass extinction of wildlife. Considered the most comprehensive analysis between farming and the environment, without meat and dairy consumption, global farm land use could be reduced by 75%. An area equivalent to the U.S., China, EU, and Australia combined---and still feed the world. (Source: Oxford University, 2018- Reducing foods environmental impacts through producers & consumers) In the U.S., heart disease is our #1 killer. American cardiologists Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn reversed heart disease without any drugs and surgery. This was only possible by fully eliminating all animal products.
