In this video, I put my homemade compost to the ultimate test! Using the biological testing methods of Dr. Elaine Ingham, a leading expert in soil microbiology, I dive deep into the microbial life present in my compost. We’ll see if it’s packed with beneficial organisms like bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and nematodes – or if it’s missing the mark. Watch as I analyze the diversity and quantity of microorganisms under the microscope to determine if this compost is truly healthy and ready to boost soil fertility.

Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just getting into composting, this video will give you insight into why microbial diversity is key to building a rich, living soil. Join me on this journey of scientific discovery and learn how you can use biological testing to assess your own compost quality.
