Re: [compost_tea] B12



No, glyphosate interferes with metabolism of certain kinds of plants - don't remember which kinds off-hand, but plenty of literature on that mechanism of control.

It just so happens that the glyphosate is a good bacterial food.  And thus the rapid disappearance rate of glyphostae, IF YOU HAVE DECENT BACTERIAL NUMBERS IN THE SOIL. 

But, feed bacteria, and fungi are often out-competed.  So the need to add fungal foods to help out the fungi if you use round-up. 

And there's the carrier situation with Round-up that you need to be aware of.  But I have not tracked that information through the years, the people that would be more likely to know would be the Campaign to Label Genetically Engineered Foods.
