Lightning- The Fertiliser Factory in the Sky

Every lightning strike does more than light up the sky — it feeds the earth.
In this video, Weedy breaks down the wild science of how a bolt of lightning splits apart stubborn nitrogen molecules, fuses them with oxygen, and sends them tumbling back to the soil as natural fertiliser.

We’ll explore:
🌩️ How N₂’s triple bond gets blasted apart
🌱 Why lightning creates nitrates plants can actually use
✨ The hidden cycle happening above every garden, every storm
🎥 Beautiful visuals and a Weedyfied explanation to make the science fun and delicious

By the end, you’ll never look at a thunderstorm the same way again — because every strike is a tiny factory making plant food… right over your garden.
Enjoy
