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 you guys. Today on the podcast, we're going to be talking about the single strategy that I point to
0:07.2	that provides more harvest throughout the year than anything else that I do in my garden. And that is
0:14.0	succession planting. One thing that I have discovered over the years is that there are different levels of
0:20.3	succession planting. You can get
0:22.4	quite complex or you can start at the very basics. And that's what we're going to be talking about today.
0:28.5	We're going to be talking about the foundations that it's important for you to understand before you
0:33.7	begin considering succession planting for your garden. We're also going to be talking about
0:38.1	examples from my garden that have worked really well for me. So by the end of this episode, you'll
0:43.8	walk away with a basic understanding of simple succession planting and some ideas for how to put it
0:49.5	into practice in your garden. Welcome, I'm Jill and 10 years ago I started my first garden as a new stay-at-home
0:57.3	mom looking to cut grocery costs and grow my own food. Over the years with many failures and successes,
1:03.8	I stumbled my way into becoming a gardener. And six years ago, I started this podcast to help
1:08.8	others grow their own food as well. By tuning in each Tuesday,
1:12.3	I hope that you leave inspired and with practical tips and that gardening will change your life as it did
1:18.5	mine. Before we begin, if you're listening to this on the day that this podcast goes live on Tuesday, February 14th,
1:29.4	2023, today is the final day of open enrollment for my garden planning course, Dream to Garden.
1:37.0	All the information you need to know will be in the show notes or you can go to Journey withjil.net
1:41.8	slash dream to garden. One thing that I really focus on in
1:46.7	Dream to Garden is succession planting. If you can't tell already, and if you were in any of the master
1:51.4	classes last week, you heard me talk quite a bit about this. And the reason why it's something I love
1:57.3	to talk about and teach people to do is because, like I said at the beginning,
2:01.6	it was really the main driver to more harvest. And don't we all want more harvest out of our gardens,
