This week, Jeff and Jonathan discuss the inundation of gardening misinformation on the internet, particularly the widespread myth that soil should be sterilized.

On the other hand, the best way to improve soil is by adding compost. Seeds naturally have everything they need to grow and protect themselves, which we can see in nature.

Following the break, they explore some wood frog science, examining a recent scientific article suggesting wood frogs are developing salt tolerance.

Finally, they tackle a set of listener questions, with topics spanning from compost to grasshoppers!

Catch all this and more on this week's episode of Teaming with Microbes!
