Organic REV

The first thing to understand about REV is that it is not an ordinary humic acid product that is chemically-extracted from leonardite, lignite, or other coals. Rather, it is a 100% naturally-occurring carbon, humic acid & fulvic acid source - along with exceptionally high levels of naturally-occurring microbial biomass that can increase nitrogen efficiency by up to 25%.

REV replaces depleted soil carbon & bacterial biomass - and absorbs nutrients to make them more readily available to plants via their root systems.

0:00.0	Hey there, I hope you're having a great day so far. Today I am super excited to chat with you about a
0:06.0	subject that I've been diving into actually since Christmas, and that is trying to expand
0:11.0	what spices I might want to include in my garden. If you're like most gardeners, you may get
0:17.3	started with the basics, like tomatoes and peppers and squash and things like that.
0:22.2	And then we start to venture into herbs.
0:25.2	And then when we realize that we can grow herbs, then we're like, well, what else can we grow?

1:19.4	garden as a new stay-at-home mom wanting to do my part to provide for my family. Over the years,
1:24.7	I stumbled my way into becoming a gardener, and in this podcast, I want to help

1:33.7	new gardener, there's plenty here for you as well. You'll hear gardening tips, techniques,
1:38.0	and troubleshooting, both from me and from guests. And my hope is that you'll turn into a
1:42.5	lifetime gardener too.
1:46.0	Let's dig into today's episode.
