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.

Welcome to the Beginners Garden podcast. Unless you've been under a rock, you noticed last fall that the USDA came up with an updated map of garden zones.

0:10.8

And the internet was all a buzz about the updates because about half of us actually increased at least a half zone.

0:20.5

So that led a lot of people to wonder, what does this

0:23.1

mean? How does this affect how I garden? Well, today we're going to talk all about garden zones

0:28.9

with Master Gardner, Gardner Scott. And the reason that I have him on the show today is because

0:35.6

he was actually on the advisory board to help with the new

0:40.4

update of the USDA zone map. He's going to be talking about what garden zones are, for those of

what you grow in your garden, especially over the winter. And then at the end, he's going to talk

1:47.1

In this podcast, you'll find easy to understand conversations about how to grow your own food.
