The Top 10 Benefits of Regenerative Soil Microscopy with Matt Powers
The Top 10 Benefits of Regenerative Soil Microscopy
1. You can see & evaluate Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on roots, in inoculants, and the lifecycle & inoculation rate.
2. You can evaluate the members and cycling potential of the Soil Food Web
3. You can evaluate Root Hairs and verify and evaluate Rhizophagy
4. A Lack of Biology indicates toxins, imbalances, deficiencies, or a build of specific minerals
5. Lack of Biology = Lack of Biological Benefits
6. Microscopy is Quality Control for Biological Inputs
7. Most Microplastics are EASY to ID with Epifluorescence lighting
8. We can see Algae very easily as it and chlorophyll turn blood red in epifluorescence lighting
9. DNA testing is expensive and takes serious dedication and time while Microscopy is easy, can be done daily, and is an extremely low cost per test - in most cases it's the cost of the machine and a few disposable supplies.
10. Microscopy is where it all comes together for our understanding and applying the results from all other tests. Like with bloodwork, we can see the future and avoid problems before they even become visible at a macro level.

Episode 198 | Large-Scale Commercial Success Using Compost Tea [LBA] with Todd Harrington
If you've heard of the Governor's Island remediation project where they grew an indigenous forest on top of toxic rubble, you've heard of Todd Harrington's work. Join us for an introduction to the work of a true pioneer in the compost tea and extract space, someone who's been adding biology to soil and then testing to verify the benefits since the 90s, someone who learned from Dr. Elaine Ingham at that time and has been adapting and innovating since then. This is a very special conversation with the one and only: Todd Harrington.

Episode 196 | Unlocking Abundance with the Permaculture Mindset
The Final Season??
Yes, but it's not over!! After 8 amazing years and 1200+ students joining and taking The Advanced Permaculture Student Online, a massive backlog of Q&A has been filmed and can serve self-paced certification students seeking answers + an incredible global community of supportive members has also been gathered, and moving forward, I am centering my focus on Regenerative Soil, Regenerative Soil Microscopy, and the Regenerative Soil Database. The self-paced version of the course will remain along with all 8 seasons of Q&A, SO if you want to take this course LIVE with me - this is your opportunity.
