Hello everyone. Welcome back to the final episode on algae with

Matt of soil algae. Today we're going to be talking about how you might go about

cultivating some cyanobacteria, aka algae,

in your own garden.

How would you do this?

What process would you have to follow?

What equipment would you need?

Getting very practical for those of you who might want to

experiment with this and I know that you know that number might be few it's a little bit

of an involved process but I think it's interesting even just from an

intellectual standpoint and understanding how you might manufacture a process like this, grow algae.

So without further ado, let's get into the episode.

Yeah, that's actually I think the perfect time to talk about one of the other questions that we've got going here which is, is it possible to never have to add nitrogen to your soil like you were talking about

talking about earlier with that researcher, what would be a practical, sort of step by step, or what's a framework

a home gardener could think about growing

cyanobacteria, nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria in their garden.

What does that process look like?

Yeah, so, Jessica Davis at Colorado State, I'm going to get mad to myself if it's not Colorado's Dave for it's a

CU. Anyhow, she went around Africa, believe it or not, and she built ponds and grew

cyanobacteria and was able to take that cyanobacteria and put it on to

crop lands and not have to add any extra nitrogen, which is fabulous because nitrogen is very expensive

in those remote regions.
