How To Encourage Healthy Mycorrhizal Networks In Your Own Soil

Sunday, June 28, 2026

SOILSpoon of Soil

Check out this informative article b  Dr. Vasilis Kokkoris, Fungal Ecologist, on Mycorrhizal Networks.

"Mycorrhizal fungi play a crucial role in soil health and plant growth. As we discover how they contribute to life above- and below-ground, more and more people are interested in working with mycorrhizal fungi in their own fields and gardens.

What are mycorrhizal fungi? Mycorrhiza (also spelled as mycorrhizae or mycorrhizas) means "fungus-root". It refers to the symbiotic relationship formed between plant roots and a beneficial belowground, network-forming fungus. Mycorrhizal fungi enhance nutrient uptake, water absorption, and overall plant health. To derive all these benefits, we need to encourage their growth.‘’
