Great video, thank you

I'd love to see something about differentiating between cultural problems and pests/diseases! Also something about houseplants, especially Calatheas/Marantas and also ferns would be awesome!

gary whats your opinion on redwood forests where the soil biologists are saying the soil is up to 70 percent fungal food 30 percent mineral?

[@GarysBestGardening]

Do you have a particular study to reference? We would like to look in to this more.

[@VeganChiefWarrior]

@@GarysBestGardening maybe shes talking about carbon? this study says fungi makes the soil 70 percent carbon www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/01/140108133303.htm also i found this but i dont think its relevant lol www.academia.edu/20588687/Soil_Organic_Matter_Processes_in_Old-Growth_Redwood_Forest_Canopies

Thank you for finding this! After reading the article, we interpreted it as saying there is 70% more carbon in the soil than in the atmosphere. Which makes sense, because there is a very small amount of carbon in the air. The chemical makeup of air is about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and the remaining 1% split among all the other airborne gases. The carbon in the soil should be mostly contributed by charcoal deposits. We think that even in these old forests, there is not a lot of dead matter actually in the ground around the roots of the plants.

We don't think that it is saying there is 70% organic vs. 30% mineral in the soil, just that some fungi can increase the amount of carbon deposits that are in the soil.

@@GarysBestGardening aaah thankyou and no worries im always just making sure haha funny how all these no till cannabis growers are obsessed with immitating the red wood forest soil with close to 100 percent home made compost then haha stoner mistake forsure ;p i did read another one that said up to like 5 percent organic matter in the redwood soil, that would make more sence, any opinions of the trees growing in the forest canopies in litter thats collected in notches of other trees? is this just limited to certain species perhaps? i think i read it might be..
