Can repeated interactions between a grower, a living soil microbiome, and a ganja population produce stable, heritable changes in plant chemistry or plant-microbe relationships over generations?

The pollen is about to disappear into the flower.

The seed doesn't exist yet.

But the experiment has already begun.

Every observation has a destination.♾

🧵 THE POLLEN

There’s a very personal way I like to pollinate my plants.

I put the pollen on my fingertip...

and carry it from one plant to another.

It looks simple.

But the closer I look at this moment...

the stranger it becomes.

This is where my Genesis Resonance question begins.

What if reproduction carries more biological context than genetics alone?

What reaches the next generation?

What disappears?

What persists?

And what have we simply never thought to look for?

The garden isn't held together by what grows.

It's held together by what gets broken down.

Balance isn't the same thing as having only creatures we like.

[the 13th Root @the13throot]

Every garden has a security system.

Mine has wings.

The robber fly doesn't negotiate.

It waits.
It intercepts.

And suddenly one less insect in the garden.

Some of the most intimidating visitors are working a different side of the equation.

The difference between seeing a friend and seeing a foe.

A garden problem is rarely just one species.

[the 13th Root @the13throot]

I spend all day thinking about what belongs in the garden.

Meanwhile...

apparently the grasshoppers have their own plans.

Every creature that enters the garden has its own reason for being there.

Sometimes I'm just the landlord.

[the 13th Root @the13throot]

My first instinct was to remove the problem.

Instead, I started asking:
What does it want?

I added sunflowers and I'm learning that sometimes pest management begins with understanding the relationship...

before reaching for a weapon.

@drivespace_ Honestly, the fact you're even asking “is this safe to smoke after spraying it?” might already be your gut trying to tell you something.

Balance, not force.

I'd rather lose a plant than turn my lungs into the final testing facility. ♾

The timing of water is part of the plant's lifetime.
