Self-Sufficient Indoor Plant Ecosystems

FAQ About Self-Sufficient Indoor Plant Ecosystems

What role do microbes play in a self-sufficient indoor plant ecosystem?

Microbes play a crucial role in a self-sufficient indoor plant ecosystem by aiding in nutrient cycling and promoting soil health. They help decompose organic matter, converting it into forms that plants can readily absorb as nutrients. Additionally, some beneficial microbes can help control pests and diseases, thereby maintaining a balanced ecosystem and reducing the need for chemical interventions.
