Thought as I begin my learning on soil I would open up a thread to share in the learning, and open the subject to discussions. A most neglected aspect of tree health/husbandry.

 

We could and should all be making more moves to improving tree health via the soil, adding to our services and taking proper care of the trees we are all responsible for.

 

Good growing conditions enable trees to resist pathogens, adapt to mechanical stress, and through good soil health increases in drought resistance, so there really is no excuse for us all to treat this area like its a black hole!:biggrin:

 

First up a great intro by Dr Ingham on soil biology, shall add stuff as and when as I continue my own research into this subject.
