Get outta here with your sensible, practical solutions! ;-)
Seems easier than engineering edible yeast to get them the sterols they need.
But Brawndo has the electrolites that plants crave!
Just in case the joke is too far of a stretch to make the connection, what I'm saying is the obvious simple solution isn't profitable.
They'd rather sell you a solution that doesn't actually work, then give you a solution that works that they can't make profit on.
But you see they can sell this! Can't sell "fallow fields"...
Fellows can sell seeds for fallow fields, my friend. never fear for they will forage, and be fine.
V, is that you?
It also doesn't degrade ecosystems further.
Bees aren't just the domesticated honey bees.
Yeah, I found that pretty weird, too. Not only that, but you can't get that yeast for the next two years. Your method works yesterday haha.
