Description

🌱 What if I told you that beneath every step you take lies a universe of microscopic heroes transforming the soil and keeping our planet alive? This week’s rewind episode of the Deep Seed Podcast dives deep into the incredible world of mycorrhizal fungi with expert Natallia Gulbis.


Discover how these fungi form symbiotic relationships with plants, increasing their root capacity by up to 700 times, unlocking nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen, and even acting as nature’s underground “internet,” allowing plants to communicate and share resources. 🚀 Fun fact: the mycorrhizal hyphae in just two wheelbarrows of soil could stretch all the way to the Moon! 🌕


Key topics covered:

• 🌍 Mycorrhizal fungi: Their role as soil’s secret nutrient foragers.

• 🧬 How these fungi act as an extension of plant roots, creating a secondary root system.

• 🌱 The importance of cover crops and reducing tillage for healthier, more fertile soils.

• 🌾 How regenerative farming techniques harness these networks for sustainable agriculture.

• 💡 Mind-blowing fungal facts, like their ability to sequester carbon and stabilize soil structure with the “soil glue” glomalin.


This episode will transform the way you think about soil health and its role in regenerative agriculture, ecosystem restoration, and even climate resilience. Whether you’re a farmer, gardener, or just curious about the magic beneath your feet, this conversation is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.


🎧 Listen now on your favorite streaming platform and take a giant step towards understanding how these microscopic allies are the foundation of all life on Earth.
