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 and welcome back to the podcast. If you have been here for any length of time, |
| 0:04.8 | you know that vertical gardening is something that I'm very passionate about. I love it for so |
| 0:09.8 | many reasons. Of course, it's beautiful. Having crops grow up, you have this 3D dimensional |
| 0:16.1 | effect on your garden. It just can be absolutely gorgeous, but it's also very functional because it saves |
| 0:22.1 | space so that you can grow up instead of out and you can get more crops out of the same garden |
| 0:27.2 | space. That's something I talk about quite a bit. But I have a lot of questions that end up coming up, |
| 0:32.4 | especially on where to place your trellises and how to use a cattle panel in particular because honestly that's become |
| 0:40.1 | my go-to trellis of choice it's something that i use more and more and actually am buying more this |
| 0:46.1 | year to be able to use more it's a question that has come up quite a bit especially in the dream to |
| 0:51.9 | garden group they have questions as they're trying to figure out where |
| 0:54.9 | to put their trellises and that kind of thing. And because this one question of where to orient the |
| 1:00.2 | trellis kept coming up over and over, I thought it may not just be Dream to Garden students |
| 1:05.2 | who have questions about this. Maybe you have questions about this too. So that's why I thought |
| 1:10.4 | today we would spend an entire |
| 1:12.0 | episode talking about vertical trellis orientation, which would mean do you want it to run east to west, |
| 1:18.4 | north to south, what part of the trellis should your vertical crop be growing on? And then I thought |
| 1:25.0 | it'd be fun to specifically talk about how to use cattle panel trellises |
| 1:29.0 | in this way. I know for me this is the time of the year where my crops are not necessarily vining |
| 1:35.3 | and climbing the trellis yet, but a lot of them that will be doing that are going to be planted |
| 1:40.6 | in the next few weeks. So it's really a great time to start thinking about |
| 1:44.7 | how to answer these questions so that we can put our trellises in the best place in our garden |
| 1:50.6 | so that our vertical crops will flourish. Welcome, I'm Jill and 10 years ago I started my first |
