[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7140151, member: 63856"] It can definitely help get things up from the depths; just that extra thought given to plant expression rather than an emphasis on "controlling the growth" means the roots are also living their best life, which increases the amount of connection between plant and soil Mindfulness is good, it pays to bear in mind that by making our soil ecosystem hum, we can farm more extractively if our system is designed that way? But, we can also farm more conservatively by keeping our costs down, work on improving our fertility as opposed to working to pay so many bills - if we design our system to be that way instead. Of course, if some nutrient isn't present then you cannot make it "appear" - but biology often do. It seems obvious but air is full of nutrients too, if you have air in your soil then you have N and S and CO² and all the other things that air is. With enough solar power, the biome can source many different elements simply by modifying elements to suit, using the tools (life) at its disposal. Pretty incredible what can be done, unfortunately "farming stuff" generally means we extract from soil by selling "stuff" [/QUOTE]
