Does a combination of organisms like earthworms, nematodes along with the bacteria and fungus that are already here serve any purpose here? Can these be our metaModelSystem?

See nematode culture here! This is shockingly similar and needed here! 😱

B1 and B2 - Boiled potato R1 and R2 - Raw potato Took soil sample of Chickoo tree and place on half periphery of each potato slices. Covered the setup with net to prevent fruit flies to sit on it. @karnamdpdurga @magpie @Kunal_Kadam @Bunny @bivasnag @Mandar @manmasih @…
