Benefits of plants and soil, How you can manage?
Whenever you grow plants you need plant soil within your living space.
Some strains of soil bacteria, and the soil-dwelling microbes work with harmony with indoor plants, reduce by about 50-75% of indoor air pollution by absorbing volatile organic compounds including benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethyleneemitted by wall paint, PVC and synthetic material we use in our home. It is generally toxic and causative agents for “building-related illness” or “sick-building syndrome” when inhaled; such pollutants are absorbed by the plant and soil-dwelling microbes to protect environment. Plants can remove airborne microbes, carbon dioxide, benzene, and humidity transform it into a varieties of carbon and biochemical for its own use.
Chronic exposure of all these pollutants trapped in low air circulated room, may lead to lack of mental concentration and other health issues such as asthma and heart disease. Urban living population spends up to 90% of their time within indoors so they are at higher risk of indoor air pollution.
To get all of these benefits, all the soil in your home planters should be vital, active and fertile. The power of soil and plants depends on the mineral content of the soil.
