This week we have been learning more about the wonders of mycorrhizal fungi. The symbiotic relationship between plants and these fungi is remarkable. The fungi form an extensive network of thread like strands called mycelium in the soil and connect with the plants roots.

What does the fungi get out of it? πŸ„β€πŸŸ«
The plant gives the fungus up to 20% of the sugars it makes via photosynthesis.

What’s in it for the plant? 🌱
The plant is able to access a wider ranger of nutrients and water from the soil via the mycorrhizal fungi network. This network can also be used by plants to communicate pest attack and disease with other plants. How incredible is that!

Inoculating the compost we plant tree seedlings in or root dipping trees and shrubs before planting out is an excellent way to give the plants a head start to forming this important symbiotic association with mycorrhizal fungi.
