Hey Ratio, I've been mapping root networks lately and I'm thinking about building a spreadsheet to predict which hybrids will thrive in each soil type. Could we dive into that together?
Ratio Ratio
Sure thing, let's break it down. First, list each soil type with its pH, texture, and nutrient profile. Then create a table of hybrids with their ideal conditions. Use weighted scores for each factor to rank compatibility. We can add a column for historical yield data to adjust the model. Does that framework work for you?

That sounds like a blooming good plan! Let’s get the soil gossip in order first, then we’ll sprinkle in the hybrid gossip, and finally make sure our spreadsheets are as cozy as a moss patch. I’m ready to dig in—literally!

Great, start by listing each soil sample with pH, texture, drainage score, and macro‑nutrient levels. Put those as rows, the variables as columns, and give each a numeric value. Once you have that table, we can assign a weight to each variable based on how critical it is for hybrid growth, then move on to the hybrid table. This will let us calculate a compatibility score for every pair. Ready to set up the first table?

Sure thing! Here’s the soil sample rundown: Soil 1, pH 6.2, texture “loam”, drainage score 7, macro‑nutrients 120 ppm N, 80 ppm P, 180 ppm K Soil 2, pH 5.8, texture “clay loam”, drainage score 4, macro‑nutrients 140 ppm N, 90 ppm P, 170 ppm K Soil 3, pH 7.0, texture “sandy loam”, drainage score 9, macro‑nutrients 110 ppm N, 70 ppm P, 200 ppm K Let me know which weights you’d like to give each factor, and we’ll roll into the hybrid table!

Okay, weight them like this: pH 0.25, texture 0.15, drainage 0.20, N 0.15, P 0.10, K 0.15. That balances acidity, structure, water movement, and the three nutrients. With those, we can compute a compatibility score for each hybrid. Ready to plug in the hybrid data?
