Help for seedlings might be in the form of mycorrhizae
Help for seedlings might be in the form of mycorrhizae, the good guy fungi that infect plant roots on all conifers. “The fungi form a symbiotic relationship with the plant,” said Cregg. “The little threads, or mycelia, form on roots and improve the ability of roots to absorb water nutrients. The question becomes whether it would be helpful to add mycorrhizal spores to trees, perhaps as a dip.”
