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	Have you ever had a big secret and you knew you couldn't share it quite yet, but you couldn't
0:06.1	wait for the time to come? Well, that day has arrived for me. I'm going to be talking to you about
0:12.1	my first time growing tromboncino squash and you're going to love this. If you follow me on
0:18.8	Instagram, you've seen me talk a little bit about my growing experience
0:23.4	with tromboncino squash and you've seen some of this, but I saved most of my general
0:28.6	conclusions for today's episode.
0:30.9	I'll be talking to you about exactly what tromboncino squash is.
0:34.6	So if this is new to you and you haven't seen pictures on Instagram yet, I'll try to describe
0:38.8	it to you as well as I can. I'll talk to you about how I grew it, my observations in growing.
0:44.8	The big question is, did it actually deter the squash bind bore, which is its claim to fame?
0:51.2	And then the second thing a lot of people ask is how do you eat it? This particular
0:54.8	squash is unique because you can eat it in two different stages of its growth, which I've
0:59.2	found fascinating. So we're going to be talking all about that in today's episode along with
1:05.0	my general conclusions and whether I'll grow it again next year. Welcome. I'm Jill and in 2013, I started my first garden as a new stay-at-home mom wanting to do my part to provide for my family.
1:18.5	Over the years, I stumbled my way into becoming a gardener, and in this podcast, I want to help other new
1:23.8	gardeners just like I was grow their own gardens too. And don't worry, if you're not a
1:28.2	new gardener, there's plenty here for you as well. You'll hear gardening tips, techniques, and
1:32.7	troubleshooting both from me and from guests. And my hope is that you'll turn into a lifetime
1:37.4	gardener too. Let's dig into today's episode. I first saw a photo of the Tromboncino squash on Instagram. I think it was from an
1:47.5	Australian gardener and I saw it in the wintertime. Which side note is a great time to follow
1:52.7	Australian gardeners because they're in the middle of their summer while you're trying to dream
1:56.5	about what you want to grow. And this worked out perfectly for me because I was like,
