INTRODUCING TERP TEA
Aurora Innovations was founded by organic gardeners, and we’re happy to report that our founders still geek out on best gardening practices and soil science. Right now we’re all excited about the roll-out of two new products, Roots Organics Terp Tea Grow and Terp Tea Bloom. Here’s Bowe and Austin explaining how to improve your plant’s terpene production.
What is Terp Tea?
Bowe: We apply a revolutionary micronizing approach to the highest quality organic blended fertilizer to create Terp Tea Grow and Terp Tea Bloom. Austin: Our terp tea is packed with the latest beneficial bacteria and MycorrhizaeMicronizing making, as well as bat guano, fishbone meal, soybean meal, kelp and other organic non-GMO ingredients that will encourage the highest possible levels of terpenes in your plants.
How does Roots Organics Terp Tea work?
Bowe: In organic gardening, particle size matters tremendously to release rate. Reducing particle size increases rate of biological exposure to quality materials, and therefore increases control and/or plant benefit from those materials. Less is wasted and the grower can deploy nutrients with precision. Micronizing makes the materials available faster, and it also makes it more likely that the plant’s roots will come into contact with secondary cofactors that are a result of the breakdown of these materials. So, you get the exudate, or the byproduct, of the breakdown of, say, a nice piece of decomposed bat guano. By using a micronized product you’re ensuring that your plant’s root system gets a lot more biological exposure.
What is the Roots Organics Terp Tea advantage?
Bowe: You can’t get higher quality terp tea. Our terp tea is designed so the plant benefits from multiple materials simultaneously. All in a micronized 100% natural and organic material. Our style of micronizing leads to much greater uptake, and more diversity of compounds delivered to a plant’s roots system—enhancing its natural systems and really enhancing terpene production. (In my opinion, that has much to do with the biological exposure.)
Austin: You end up with plants with unparalleled flavors and smells.
How do I use terp tea?
Bowe: Roots Organics Terp Tea can be used as a top dress, can be used as a liquid standalone, and can be used as a supplement to any gardening program. Not for foliar, but for any applied root zone style of agriculture or horticulture.
