Grow microbe-rich greens
Grow greens bursting with beneficial microbes to support everyday gut health and nutrient-dense meals.








Gbiota exists to restore the natural nutrition that modern food systems have lost. Colin Austin—one of Australia’s leading innovators and the original inventor of wicking beds—has spent decades studying alternative growing systems, soil biology, water management, and plant nutrition. His vision for wicking beds was never just about saving water; it was about creating the optimal soil ecosystem to grow nutrient-dense food that genuinely supports human health.
Modern supermarket vegetables often look fresh but lack the beneficial microbes and essential trace minerals our bodies rely on for satiety, gut balance, and long-term wellness. Gbiota continues Colin’s mission by developing growing methods that naturally supply all the nutrients and microbes the human body needs, helping people eat better and avoid the chronic diseases driven by nutrient-poor diets.
