A viewer asks: “In light of Creator’s information that hydroponic gardens, which are devoid of novel life forms using tap or filtered water, are inferior to gardens grown with connection to the earth in soil and exposed to sunlight, could we do something as simple as adding lemon juice to the hydroponic water to add some of the life forms without any detrimental effects to the plants? Can Creator give some advice on how to enhance the hydroponic system to make the plants more beneficial for human consumption, if it’s possible?”

It would indeed be possible to add some of those novel life forms by adding lemon juice. The problem is one of practicality, in the first instance, depending on the volume of water and the size of the operation, whether it is practical to add enough lemon juice to provide a meaningful uptake that would be of benefit to humans ingesting the plants grown in that way. These novel life forms, in turn, depend on a certain habitat for their existence and well-being. They thrive on the energy of Gaia largely, because of the many things in soil. So water exposed to the earth, in particular, will harbor those life forms that, in actuality, are emanating from the soil in their origin. So there will be issues in the hydroponic operation, not only in supplying novel life forms, but keeping them thriving and in high concentrations. We have said before, that this is a greatly inferior way to grow plants for food. Doing so in an artificial fashion will not produce the same end results with the same quality and to the same extent of value and effectiveness as plants grown in nature, as intended.
