Biography
We manage a 40 acre wildlife area of the Texas Hill Country in the Edwards Plateau at about 3030 ft above sea level. The region is notable for its karst topography and tall rugged hills of limestone. The terrain throughout the region is punctuated by a thin layer of topsoil and a large number of exposed rocks and boulders, making the region very dry and prone to flash flooding. Native vegetation in the region includes various yucca, prickly pear cactus, native grasses and wildflowers. The predominant trees in the region are Ashe Juniper, Shin Oak and Texas Live Oak. Soil is alkaline consisting of caliche and clay.

My best advice is, stay home.

This is my example of a beautiful tree, Vitex, (not my photo):

I do have this tree planted and it bloomed just before it was planted.  It is about three years and and only 2- 3 feet due to our drought situation.

Good news is that it has survived.

Why a fail?  Looks like a success to me.

What does your chromatography tell us?

Bryant said "In the world of Soil Science we have defined soil as dirt that contains and nourishes the many microorganisms that live in soil, this includes fungi, bacteria, amoeba, nematodes, and so on.
These soil organisms create a nutrient circle of life, that is there are mineral eaters and then a line of predators.
The way we measure the components is both chemical (Gas Chromatograph or liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry are the best methods) and through microscopic examination and counting of the organisms of the microbiome.

I forgot, Youtube and Facebook ...
I would look at how some of the big named permaculture folks are making a living.

Write a book, seem to be the obvious.

Get accredited to do PDCs.

Start a Lab like Paul Wheaton did.

Have demonstration tours.

Sell your ideas some how ...
I am of the belief that keeping ones teeth as long as possible is the best approach.

Of all that you mention root canal would be the only choice other than having the tooth pulled.

Dental work is very expensive unless you have Dental coverage which is very expense unless you have an employer who is willing to pay for it.

Gargle with salt water to toughen up your gums.

If you have unbeareable tooth pain have the tooth pulled unless you can afford expensive root canal.

Denture are too expensive and implants are even more expensive.

If you have a pocket full of money or good dental coverage, have the tooth pulled.
