Elaine - The company Fusion 360 in Turlock California manufactures
microbial inoculants (Iota-o) soil activators (Fusion 360 soil-o).
The research for these products seems to have been done by Thomas
Yamashita so I looked up his patents and it appears that one of the
food bases he uses is are forms of lignosulfonate . . .which sounds
to me alot like leonardite/lignite. The statement that jumped out of
the patent was that his invention provided readily assimilable
sources of carbon and energy . . . that favor ancestral, beneficial
species.

Does he mean Basidiomycetes among other things? Is this a potential
soil food releasing humic acids?
