Living Soil Cannabis—Better for Your Health, Better for the Environment
As a fellow Montanan, you are likely as health conscious and devoted as we are to protecting our state’s natural resources. Consumer education is one of our passions, and we’re here to provide information on how living soil cannabis provides maximum health benefits while helping sustain a healthier natural ecosystem.
Why Is Living Soil Cannabis Better?
Health & Environmental Benefits
Enhanced Nutrient Profile
Rich in Nutrients, Terpenes, and Cannabinoids: Living soil contains a diverse array of beneficial microbes, fungi, and organic matter that contribute to a richer nutrient profile in the cannabis plant. The improved nutrient uptake from living soil can enhance the production of terpenes and cannabinoids, which are responsible for the therapeutic effects of cannabis.
Reduced Exposure to Chemicals
No Synthetic Pesticides: Living soil systems rely on natural predators and organic pest control methods, minimizing the use of synthetic pesticides.
No Chemical Fertilizers: Organic matter and compost in living soil provide the necessary nutrients, eliminating the need for chemical fertilizers that can leave residues.
Improved Flavor and Aroma
Terpene Profile: The diverse microbial life in living soil helps produce a more complex and robust terpene profile, enhancing the flavor and aroma of the cannabis.
Natural Taste: The absence of chemical residues contributes to a cleaner, more natural taste.
Microbial Benefits
Beneficial Microbes: Cannabis grown in living soil contains beneficial microbes that can have positive effects on the human microbiome when consumed.
Probiotic Potential: Some of these microbes may have probiotic potential, contributing to gut health.
Sustainability and Soil Health
Sustainability: Growing cannabis in living soil promotes sustainable farming practices that are better for the environment, which indirectly benefits human health by reducing pollution and conserving natural resources.
Soil Health: Living soil practices improve soil health, leading to better long-term productivity and reducing the need for harmful agricultural inputs.
Organic Status
Organic Certification: Living soil practices align with organic farming principles, which produces a healthier and more sustainable product.
