Great stuff! 😀
Paul Stamets! My man! As a mycologist I can confirm that ALL the information in this video is accurate. There is one thing you missed however, it's not just that mycorhiza create this relationship with roots and make symbiotic exchanges, the hyphae also continue breaking down organic matter right next to the roots using enzymes, so not only does the hyphae transport water, sugars and nutrients, but it's also creating new food for the plant right next to the roots so the plant can also uptake even more. Lastly there are thousands of species and even some entire Genera that are mychorizal but also produce large macroscopic mushrooms, take Amanita for instance. I've also read studies that focus on the fact that trees are communicating with each other via the mychorhiza. The mycorhiza are almost like telephone cables between trees, if a tree is lacking iron for instance, it can request iron from other organisms linked in the network.
Thank you James for your wonderful videos. I've been gardening organically since 1978!! a tad older than you are lol. Paul is one of my favorites to watch and listen to, because of him I have been using wood chips for over 5 years now, and am amazed at how well the improvement of my soil is. Keep up the good work of informing people how important mulching is.]
Have a wonderful day.

i was straight up watching this similiarty into what paul guatchi and paul statement isnt cazy that their both considently named paul hahah i got so hooked on both and when i saw this vid i just lost man great stuff i woujder if the mycelium choose them both to greatly pass on this genetic code unlock into a new awarness a awsome kit bag of inouclated spores like kions mane and 2 or three other mushrooms that paul statement recomends

Two of my favorite people and one of my favorite topics.. All is connected indeed 🙂 Thank you for sharing this with the world! Your videos are very nice and I appreciate your enthusiasm for what you do. I just started with the creation of my own food forest here in MI, using a combination of the knowledge of many great people like Stamets and Gautschi and my intuition.. It's such an exciting journey!! Keep rocking!
Excellent info! I love all your videos! And mostly I love your positive attitude! You are definitely a conqueror in life! thank you so much!
I love this education show style. keep up the great work james i love your personality
Great video james! I’ve watched many important gardening videos from you, I wonder if you have them translated into other languages? ( Vietnamese maybe?) I have a privilege to learn gardening from you and other gardeners and farmers but people in Vietnam don’t. 2016 I went to Vietnam, the organic fruits and vegetables there became luxurious, only the rich can have access to them. The country is agriculture based, but sadly the soil was so pour, anything grew in there has so much pests, the production was pour! I was heartbroken! I grew up there when there were always fruit trees in the front and back yard, at the time I visit the garden was bare, the soil was hard as rock! I post a picture of my orange tree loaded with fruits, my cousin in Vietnam asked if I tied plastic fruits on because she hasn’t seen that many fruits on a tree before! It’s so sad! This is the reason why I wanna share your videos with my friends and family in Vietnam to show them that gardening isn’t difficult, organic is the way to grow! Thanks james!
I have live oak trees. If I rake the nuts and leave close to the trunk will this fertilize the trees?
Thanks for the response. Your Chanel is great. I need to get to work on the garden, I have been inspired.
You are the best bro 🙂 I needed this video! Building my food forest as we speak! <3
I dont even eat half of the stuff i grow, but i love to give fresh food to my friends and family
Great information…. Thank you!!
thank you! super helpfull. thats my fav thing too. giving homegrown veggies is appreciated beyond words. bless your soul
I thought Paul stamets was In the video lmao
im sad i missed the chance for the memes!
Love watching you harvest the different kinds of fruits and vegetables. Thanks for making the videos. Merry Christmas !
The creation of mycorrhizal fungi does not begin with laying down woodchips nor is it dependent on woodchips.
It begins with a purposeful innoculation of your garden soil with old growth forest soil from your area.
MF develop & establish connections at the root level with plants in the soil.
Woodchips are a helpful mulch covering. That's all. Any good, clean organic mulch souce will do.
Thanks for doing what you do, James. You've done a wondrous job with providing all of the information I need, I've really enjoyed listening to Paul Gautschi too. You really are doing the LORD's work!! Please continue to do what you do and God Bless you!
I just started watching your channel. We live in an apartment in California but just got a dwarf peach tree that I planted in a large pot on our patio. A few years ago I lived in a place that had a 1/3 of an acre in the yard but it was way overgrown. I wish I had done something with it though.
I agree with you 100%. My neighbors loved getting vegetables from my garden. It's very rewarding sharing.
I so enjoy his videos!!!
Amazing Grasp of knowledge you have, James
Thanks James for your reply. Yes its what you learn, BUT its how you tell your story and teach your lessons.
Great Job James….. Hugs for Tuck.
Good night
I bet you love Dr. Stephanie Seneff and Mercola
