FAQ About Indoor Plant Root Zone Microbiology

How can you improve the root zone microbiome for better plant health?
Improving the root zone microbiome can be achieved through several practices: avoiding excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, as they can disrupt microbial populations; incorporating organic matter such as compost to provide nutrients for microbes; and using microbial inoculants to introduce beneficial microorganisms directly into the soil.
Regular soil testing and monitoring can help to tailor specific amendments to maintain a healthy and balanced microbiome around the plant roots.
