Nicole Masters -- Microbial Plant Partnerships

Microbes play the central role in plant health and performance, from the uptake of minerals to inducing defense and lifting valuable plant metabolites to create resilient, nutrient-dense foods. In turn, some plant indicator species (aka weeds) alter microbial and mineral balances to slow succession and increase competition.
In this session, Nicole delves into how we can optimize, or get out of the way of, these essential processes. We will also touch on the role of epigenetics and seed treatment options to set plants, and ourselves, up for success.

Brilliant talk. Epigenetics and quorum sensing are fascinating. Thank you.

[@pguk83]

Now this was a really useful presentation! Thanks so much - I'm off to do some more research.

[@smileysgarden]

Great conversation thank you both 🙏

[@raweatables6903]

That was refreshing, thank you Nicole.

I was born in Tucson. This totally explains why I can withstand insane heat but shiver in the 50’s

[@Favorite-catNip]

The intro. Was perfect. The in^depth data could keep viewers from checking out the video. Thx.

[@Favorite-catNip]

I mean the info. Was excellent. Thx. Very much.

Thks Matthew 💕

Great info I actually started studying KNF a year ago I just purchased her book too thanks again

The Johnson-Su test plot looks just like a murder scene outline without the chalk. Ten bucks says a beast died there. And that's great. I get a much larger response to Johnson-Su where there's a pre-existing soil organic matter background ...... like an animal death site, or a bale grazing etc.

[@johnroydelacruz1433]

I appreciate ur presentation

[@floridanaturalfarming3367]

I think it is biological, molecule and plant or just biology and molecule, excellent presentation. Thank you🐸

Hopefully, I can get my new rancher acquaintance to take a look at this video. The preamble is hard for some to follow, but when getting down to cases, it all makes sense.

On dynamic accumulator weeds, Are they accumulating minerals that are in low amounts in soil to eventually break down on surface or to add to surface in concentrated areas?

[@allanparker20]

What does down the drill mean?

[@williamgibson2760]

FYI there are 2 labs I know of in USA doing plant sap analysis. Newage Lab and Crop Health Lab (latter was started by the Netherlands lab that developed the sap analysis)

[@andrewmask21able]

Crazy question but can you substitute the milk with butter???

[@DD-rt9lc]

Brilliant

[@leelindsay5618]

Short intros are nice, but some intro info would be nice on the presenter for the people later who view the video.

[@tinfoilhatscholar]

Resonate procreation and vibratory co-creation. Voltage, frequency and vibration.. The Trinity?? Plasma as the unifying force in the universe and our understanding of redox potential in soil and organisms... If micro physics/cosmology is different from molecular biology, then we are living in confused times. Just some food for thought. Thanks for sharing!

[@monicamccarthy8510]

A priori the subject should be interesting but strangely wasn't too much introduction

[@ChristopherPisz]

You lost me at vibrations and frequencies foo foo yoga talk in the end. Was good until then.

[@BrownCreature]

It's a pity that those... sound waves and EMFs threw you. Mate it's just a hypothesis. The insect has the ability/is attuned to the particular vibrational frequency of a pheromone molecule and isn't reliant of lock and key based chemical/smell receptors. Who knows yet... be open if you're here and not presenting you must have some degree of inquisitiveness and desire to listen

We hate to see you go, we hate to see you go
