🪄Microbes Create Magic Inside Sacred Plants, with Dr. Colin Bell

Dr. Colin Bell - formerly of Mammoth Microbes and currently working with the incredible Miim Horticulture - returns to the show! Today we are doing a microbial deep dive in an attempt to understand what is essentially a massive iceberg of microbe knowledge. We only know a brief portion of how powerful and influential micro organisms are, but every year we are understanding more and more about how bacteria, fungi, and other tiny beings shape the world around us. Colin gives us a great breakdown of how microbes work from a basic perspective, how they interact and communicate with plants, and eventually dives deep enough to explain that just about everything to do with the human experience is powered by the microbiology within our own human microbiome. Even plants themselves, may have evolved from collections of ancient bacteria- thus it is crucial to understand and employ more of these tiny organisms in our own home gardens!
