So, as I was watching the Discovery Science chanel as one does, when a special on this brazilian type of soil called Terra Preta (Black Soil). Being brazilian and having this interest in new grow mediums (obvious... :smokebong:) Well... Apparently this medium "grows", due to a combination of fungus and bacteria, and is apparently one of the most fertile soils in the world.
Excavation concludes a whole civilization, as big as the Mayan and Aztecs with pottery and artwork rivalling those cultures all around the Amazon margins, where land is known to be infertile.
Terra preta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_preta)
Qa?: Would it be considered a soiless media?
Qb?: Have any of you tried this stuff? (Now, I've heard it's started to export)
I can't wait to get home and try to bring it back here... hopefully customs won't bust me for germs and culture...
Da mon tief I & I cheese last time round, seen??
