240 - Real Talk about Growing a Garden to Save Money

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	If you, like so many others, are alarmed by the rising food prices and are considering
0:06.3	growing your own food to save money, you may be wondering if it's really possible to save
0:11.5	money by gardening. Having started my first garden a decade ago with that precise intent as a new
0:18.3	stay-at-home mom, I can tell you that yes, it's possible.
0:22.3	From where I'm sitting now, I'd estimate that we grow about 80, maybe 90% of the vegetables,

0:34.3	bill rise as steeply as most people have. But it's not just a matter of
0:39.1	buying a few seeds and voila, food. As much as I wish it were that simple, it's just not. And I also
0:47.0	didn't grow 80% of the vegetables, fruit, and herbs my first season. So this is definitely something
0:52.7	that we build up to. But I do want to encourage you that,

1:09.9	realistically expect and also some tips on
1:13.0	how to approach gardening to save money in a way that fits your lifestyle, your personality,
1:18.3	and other important factors. You see, I don't want you to go into this gardening thing,
1:23.6	especially if you're a first year garden gardener with too high of expectations,
1:27.8	but I also don't want you to go into it full force
1:31.2	and be disappointed either with your results.
1:34.2	So what I wanna do is I wanna talk to you
1:36.3	like you're sitting right across from me,
1:38.5	like you're a friend who is coming to me saying,
