An interconnected system of mycelium, which consists of hyphae (thread-like structures) that spread through soil or other organic material. In cannabis cultivation and other plant ecosystems, the mycelium network forms a symbiotic relationship with plant roots, allowing for the exchange of nutrients, water, and communication signals between plants. This underground fungal network plays a crucial role in nutrient cycling, soil health, and overall plant growth.
