I'd love to know the specific study that shows that roundup "seriously
stress the fungal web in mature soil ecosystems"
 
Thanks

Good question Judi. Vitamin B-12 has been field applied at a rate of about
35-50 micrograms per acre. I tea I think you could guessimate but how would
you measure the results? Bioassays or some sort of sophisticated lab
analysis? Microbes are the source of B-12 so maybe we should be growing the
appropriate microbes either as a separate culture or added to compost tea.

Regarding the use of Roundup from a post a few days ago, I believe Roundup
has been shown to seriously stress the fungal web in mature soil ecosystems=
.
Not exactly harmless if trees are intimately tied into the fungal component=
.

Later,

John C.
