Today?s my average last frost date?maybe it?s yours too. So, is it time to plant everything? Not so fast. In this episode, we?re diving into what your last frost date really means and why it?s more of a guidepost than a green light.

We?ll cover:
? What the ?average last frost date? actually means
? Why warm-weather crops might still need to wait
? How soil temps, night temps, and forecasts factor in
? What to do if a cold snap hits after you?ve planted
? Tips for protecting your plants and setting them up to thrive

Plus, I?ll share a few hard-learned lessons from my early gardening days?and how a soil thermometer, weather watching, and a little patience can go a long way.

? Don?t forget: The Productive Gardener?s Blueprint is now available to watch on demand! I re-recorded it with updates for April planting?perfect for this exact moment in the season. Watch it at journeywithjill.net/masterclass

We?ll cover:

Dry beans like pinto, kidney, and black beans Shelling beans such as black-eyed peas and lima beans Chickpeas, lentils, edamame, and more

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.

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.

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.
