In this episode, you'll learn how to identify and manage common garden pests. You'll understand the importance of not rushing to use insecticides without proper identification, as some organic controls can harm beneficial insects and may not be effective for all pests.

Jill discusses ten potential problems you might encounter in your garden, providing specific signs and symptoms to help you identify the pests causing the damage. From insects causing unidentifiable damage to critters like deer and rabbits, you'll gain insights and tips on mitigating these issues. You'll also understand the importance of recognizing the lifecycle stages of insects.

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.
