I do not understand the point of these experiments. They're nitrogen fixing with Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi. Why not just do it hydroponically? It's not like you're going to try to fix atmospheric nitrogen on the moon to create soil.

The point of these experiments is to find out what will happen.

Which btw is the point of all experiments.
