Where to find root system compatibility information

News Articles /

One of the benefits of intercropping that I often read about is the ability to mix plants that do not compete for the same layer of soil. I would like to do more to take advantage of this, planting shallow rooted plants near tap rooted ones, but sometimes I have difficulty finding useful information about a plant’s root structure. The descriptions I can find are often a vague binary, when in fact there is a spectrum between deep rooting and surface rooting. I certainly have no interest in digging up my existing perennial to discover the nuance.

Is there a resource that has reliable information on the root structures of perennial food plants? I would be surprised if a permaculture author hadn’t made some kind of compatibility table to use as a reference. I would be grateful for any information you can provide.

Anyone Grow/Use Tobacco for Insecticides?

News Articles /

I was doing some research the past year, and came across an article discussing the use of steeped tobacco as an insecticide in the garden. While I can buy dry tobacco, I am intrigued by growing and drying some of my own. Found a source for a high nicotine variety, but am just curious if anyone else has/does do this and what your experience was. Thanks!

Fire in black sheoak forest of East Gippsland would destroy the birds’ food supply, conservationist says

Glossy black cockatoos could be pushed towards extinction in Victoria if planned burns of 13,000 hectares of forest go ahead, ecologists and conservationists warn.

The Victorian government is being urged to abandon the burn, which is intended to reduce bushfire risk.

Light-to-electricity nanodevice reveals how Earth’s oldest surviving cyanobacteria worked

News Articles /

Scientists have decoded the atomic structure of Photosystem I from a 3-billion-year-old cyanobacteria lineage, offering a unique look at early oxygen-producing photosynthesis. The ancient nanodevice, purified from Anthocerotibacter panamensis, shows a remarkably conserved three-leaf-clover architecture for light absorption despite billions of years of evolution. The findings suggest that the fundamental design for harnessing sunlight was established very early in the history of life on Earth, predating the evolution of more complex photosynthetic machinery.
