We
sell and manufacture Organic Gardening products for use by Urban Gardeners,
Landscapers, and Growers who want to produce high quality (High
Brix) plants .
Using our Natures Own Growing System Organic
Garden Kit, you can quickly establish biologically
active, nutrient dense soils.
It is from such soils that high quality, excellent flavored and nutrient dense
fruits and vegetables can be grown that will impart good health to all consumers.
Through the production of plants greater in health, yields, nutrient levels,
taste, and after harvest sustainability, this growing system models how to
reverse the long standing production of poor quality food which is currently
lowering the health of consumers.
No soil building delays are needed to make nutrients available to
the plants.
Soil nutrients for plant growth are made available immediately by
our
BioVam and
Microbe Tea soil life products.
Our Organic Gardening Kit
enables you to grow High Quality produce at lower costs.
Do
you KNOW HOW to measure plant quality and
know when you have poor or excellent quality plants?
Food
Quality is easily determined by using a
refractometer to measure the Brix of plant
Juices. The Brix Scale on a
refractometer is a measure of
the dissolved solids in the juice from your plant
product. Most of the solids are carbohydrates
in plant juices, but
vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other plant
produced compounds are also present in the plant
juice.
The main thing you want to remember is the higher the Brix value, the higher the nutrient
content in your plants, and the higher the plant quality.
High Brix means high plant quality and higher
mineral content. Low brix means low plant
quality and lower mineral content.
We recommend this refractometer
(click here) to test the quality of your fruit
and vegetables.

High Brix Early Girl Tomatoes (10 brix)
After 4 frosts, 215 tomatoes were harvested from
one Early Girl Plant. 31 of those tomatoes
were ripe.
100-200 tomatoes ripened and were previously
harvested from the plant.
The green tomatoes ripened in 2-3 weeks at room
temperature. They were also 10 brix.
Reduced Losses Illustration
High Brix Early Girl Tomatoes (10 Brix)
After 5 months of being stored at room
temperature the 215 tomatoes were eaten down to
95 tomatoes. None of the tomatoes spoiled.

Talking about
tomatoes grown with our Organic Garden Kit.
Watch this movie and see what can be
done with ordinary tomato plants sold in stores
across the USA.
“People are always asking us what makes you guys so
different from the tons of vendors of garden products?
Here's the scenario from the farm to your table.
The
growers are growing food that is low in nutrient value
and quality. Some of the food spoils or is eaten up by
insects and diseases right there on the farm and is
thrown out or recycled back into the soil. The food that
is harvested is crated up and shipped to food
distributors. The food distributor throws out some of
the food that has spoiled by the time they receive it.
The food distributor supplies a number of stores and the
stores throw out some of the food that spoils before
they can put it on the shelf for the public to purchase.
You, the consumer go to the store and purchase what
looks good to you, passing over what is already spoiling
since it was put out! You take it home and store it for
a short while expecting to consume it, but end up
finding a percentage has spoiled easily within days to a
week, having to throw out part of that purchase.
We have put an end to those losses and low quality
plants.
Our
Organic Garden Kit allows nutrient packed high quality
food to be grown which doesn't spoil after it is
harvested. It isn't eaten up by bugs and disease
organisms don't bother this food. High quality food
doesn't spoil on the farm. It doesn't spoil on its way
to the food distributor. It doesn't spoil on its way to
the various stores. And it doesn't spoil after the
consumer purchases it. High quality food has much higher
levels of nutrients present than the food that spoils so
readily. With low quality food we experience declining
health and with high quality food we experience improved
health. This is the ultimate goal we all seek through
the consumption of high quality food: good health.
The problem is you can not buy this quality level of
food! But we have solved that problem and high quality
food can now easily be grown with our Organic Garden
Kit.
What is the significance of what we are doing?
Changing the Way the World Grows, literally.
Our starter
Organic Gardening Kit supports 14 sq
feet (seven 18 gallon containers; 14 five gallon containers; 14 large
plants in the soil; a 6" x 28 foot ground row). Additional 14 sq foot
fertilizer kits for $17.14 are available to support the number of plants
you want to grow. If you have larger areas, call us or email us for a quote about
how much is going to be required for your growing area. We
can accommodate large growing areas.
Example of a conceptual garden
plan illustrating how our Organic Gardening Kit is used ....
Start when
frosts have stopped and the soil is starting to warm up.
If you have
compost or other organic products that you want to till into
your soil, spread it out over your garden area where you are
going to plant.
Brew up our
Microbe Tea for 24 hours or use our pre-brewed tea. Add
yucca extract and Microbe Tea Food to the tea, dilute it, and
spray the entire surface of your growing area down with the
microbe tea. Apply the Microbe Tea even if you don't put
down organic materials.
Till the soil
to a depth of about 4-6 inches.
Mix together
the Lime, Calphos, and Gypsum products and apply them to your
soils. Apply the Biosol Mix 7-2-3 and Planters II trace
mineral fertilizer to the soils. Mix everything into
the top 8-12 inches of soil.
Brew up our
Microbe Tea for 24 hours or use our pre-brewed tea. Add
yucca extract and Microbe Tea Food to the tea, dilute it, and
spray the entire surface of your growing area down with the
microbe tea. The bacteria and fungi in the
Microbe Tea will go to work on their food and start
releasing the minerals that have been applied.
If you are
planting rows of seeds, make your furrow and apply BioVam in the
furrow and set the seed on top of the BioVam, then cover the
seed with soil.
If you are
transplanting plants, wash the soil and chemical fertilizers off
the roots if chemical fertilizers were used on those plants,
then apply BioVam to the roots and plant. If your
transplant didn't have chemical fertilizers applied then loosen
the soil around the roots and apply BioVam to the roots and
plant.
After
everything is planted, brew up Microbe Tea, add yucca extract
and microbe tea food and dilute and spray with a pump sprayer or
don't dilute and spray with a hose end sprayer. Do this
weekly from then on during the rest of your growing season.
Set up an
irrigation system on a timer to deliver water periodically.
Note: If you have soil tests done we can
work with you to adjust the fertilizer quantities you add to
your soils.
T&J Enterprises' BioVam mycorrhiza wins competition with other mycorrhiza vendors:
"The plant treated with T&J Enterprises’ Inoculant formed the most massive root system and yielded more tomatoes."
"...the results indicate that mycorrhizal fungi inoculants, together with the microbial associates they encourage,
produce bigger, healthier, and more productive plants compared with plants that have no colonized fungi on their roots."
Mighty Mycorrhizae by Doreen Howard published in American Gardener (Us Horticulture Society), July / August 2005
People interested in these products are back
yard gardeners, farmers, farm crop management, flower growers, home and
garden supply companies, house plant growers, landscapers,
lawn care companies,
plant nursery owners,
organic farming,
organic gardening, urban gardeners, and those who wish to pursue
container gardening methods. Those interested in bettering their
diets and health use our products to grow highly nutritious foods.
Contained in these products are soil life forms
that are often found in some compost tea brewing kits but are much more
effective in our
BioVam Mycorrhiza product and our
Microbe Tea Brewing kits. Organisms like, mycorrhiza fungi (endomycorrhiza
fungi and ectomycorrhiza fungi), nitrogen fixing bacteria, phosphorous
solubalizing bacteria, and bacteria that out compete plant pathogens are
found in our BioVam product. Nitrogen fixing bacteria, cellulose eating
trichoderma fungi, and many beneficial soil organisms are found in our
Microbe Tea Brewing Kits.
Our products help
gardeners grow plants high in energy, higher in minerals and
vitamins,
high in brix levels, higher health and vitality, and
higher yields. For all fruits, vegetables, ornamentals and
turf grasses.
BioVam
contains endomycorrhiza and ectomycorrhiza fungi, beneficial
bacteria, and trichoderma fungi and is applied under seeds, onto
plant roots, or into the ground via probe holes to make contact
with the roots of established plants. Plants who's roots
are colonized with mycorrhiza fungi have higher mineral
quantities, have vibrant colors (higher vitamin content),
produce high quality fruits / flowers / tubers / roots each
year, have resistance to environmental stresses, and have higher
resistance to soil diseases and destructive insects.
Biosol Mix 7-2-3 Organic Fertilizer
will promote the growth of beneficial fungi and bacteria in the
soils as food for life in your soils and as a plant sustaining
nutrient source. Apply measured quantities by hand or with
standard spreader equipment. As bacteria and fungi consume
Biosol Mix 7-2-3, they release organic acids which serve to make
minerals added to the soils available to your plants.
Calcium Kit provides
lime, soft rock phosphate and gypsum for your soils. These
minerals, in conjunction with our other products, support high
plant yields, high quality plants (high brix), and faster plant
growth to maturity.
Microbe Tea - Natures Own Soil Life Tea Brewing Kits are
used to produce beneficial bacteria and fungi to be applied to
plant surfaces and as a soil drench. These organisms are
responsible for making our various fertilizers available to
plants.
Yucca
Extract is added to the Soil Life Tea after the Soil Life
Tea is brewed and helps plant cells be more permeable to
nutrient and water uptake.
Our Organic Gardening Kit for
High Brix Gardening
contains these products (1 pint of BioVam, 4.75 lbs Biosol Mix 7-2-3
Fertilizer, 4.5 lbs of Planters II Trace Mineral Fertilizer, Calcium Kit
(lime, soft rock phosphate, gypsum), Natures Own Growing System 1 Gallon
Soil Life Tea Brewing Kit, 1 Pint Yucca Extract.) This kit is sized to
treat 14 square feet of soil or seven 2 cubic foot containers.
You can increase the
fertilizer components (Biosol Mix 7-2-3, Planters II Trace Mineral
Fertilizer, Calcium Kit) to cover an
additional 14 square feet or seven 18 gallon tubs for $17.14.

Purchase
Additional Fertilizer Kits to treat 14 square
feet (Biosol Mix, Planters II, Lime, Calphos,
Gypsum) cost $17.14.
Note: If you want to substitute a larger size for any of the products in our
Organic Gardening Kit (including discounted bulk sizes of BioVam), contact us for a price quote.
Note: We grow most of our vegetable plants in 18 gallon containers to contain 2 cubic feet of Nursery Mix
or compost, a product which has not been previously modified with any kind of fertilizers. The
Organic Gardening kit is enough to set up
seven 18 gallon tubs or 14 square feet of planting area.
How to prepare 18 gallon
containers (2 cubic feet of soil with 2
square feet of surface) with our Organic Garden Kit products.
Instructions for using an 18 gallon plastic tub
(2 square feet) which has previously been prepared by drilling holes into the bottom so irrigation water can drain out.
2 cubic foot bag of nursery mix or compost.
This is a basic growing medium with no fertilizer added.
Mix the ingredients below together into the top 3-6
inches of the nursery mix or compost.
2 cups of BioSol Mix 7-2-3 fertilizer.
This provides a source of humus all over the Nursery Mix to support bacteria and fungi in the soil for the entire growing season. Microbe action will free up nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, magnesium, sulfate and other trace elements present in the Biosol Mix. This may seem excessive per the manufacture's label, but Biosol Mix 7-2-3 becomes
a source of humus and complexed carbons in the soil and most of the nutrients require microbe action to make them available to the plants.
1 cup of Planters II trace mineral fertilizer
This provides a source of many important trace minerals needed by the plants.
2 cups of the Calcium Kit
ingredients
This is a source of calcium and phosphate which will react in the
soil to supply the minerals and energy your plants need for high brix levels.
Use 1/2 to 1 tsp of BioVam under seeds planted in the tubs and 1/2 tsp to 1 tbs of BioVam on the roots of transplants as they are planted in the 18 gallon tubs
or soil.
Using the microbe tea
brewer, brew the microbe tea for 24 hours. Filter
the tea through the filter bag into the 5 gallon bucket
provided in the kit. Add Yucca Extract to the
Microbe Tea. Bacteria in the microbe tea feed on
Biosol Mix 7-2-3 fertilizer and their acids solubalize
the minerals into available plant food.
After you have planted your seeds or transplants in your
containers or in the ground, apply our Microbe Tea with Yucca Extract added as a soil drench to your soil. The Yucca Extract will make a significant difference
in the plant germination stage, growth stage, and fruiting stage. Seeds will germinate faster.
Plants will grow to have large root systems as well as large above ground systems.
These performance improvements are due to Yucca Extract making plant cells more
permeable to the uptake of water and the nutrients provided in the fertilizers
furnished with our Organic Gardening Kit.
The fertilizer ingredients that come with our
Organic Gardening Kit are enough to treat fourteen
square feet of regular garden soil if mixed into the top 6 inches of soil, or
seven eighteen gallon tubs. Additional fertilizer kits are available for $17.14 to treat an additional 14 square feet.
Our natural organic BioVam product provides the mycorrhiza fungi which move nutrients into the roots of your plants and loosens up the soils around the roots of each plant. Beneficial Aerobic Bacteria in BioVam can then fix nitrogen out of the air, solubalize minerals, reduce organic material in the soil into plant nutrients and build soil tilth. Trichoderma fungi in BioVam promote root growth and fight off fungal pathogens in the soils. BioVam furnishes important soil life that lives in and around the roots of your plants. BioVam will work with all plants, even with non-mycorrhizal plants because all plants respond to the Trichoderma fungi and Aerobic Bacteria which are part of Biovam.
Natures Own Growing System Tea Brewers are manufactured by T&J Enterprises.
The ingredients in Natures Own Growing System
Soil Life Tea Brewers consist of high performing Aerobic and faculative soil bacteria which fix nitrogen from the air, solublize minerals, and reduce organic material into plant food. Trichoderma fungi are also present in our Tea Brewing Kits. Weekly applications of Natures Own Growing System
Soil Life Tea (after brewing for 24 hours) to your plants and soils helps sustain the production of nutrients for your plants at high levels. Our
soil life tea will encourage your plants to raise their shields against pathogens before they can gain entrance to your plants. This product was designed by T&J Enterprises to work in conjunction with our BioVam product which feeds the nutrients into your plants' roots and with our two Organic fertilizers (Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer and Planters II Trace Mineral Fertilizer).
If you purchase one of our
Soil Life tea Brewers, you should also purchase
Yucca Extract which is added to the
soil life tea after the tea is brewed. Yucca Extract makes plant cells more permeable to water and nutrient uptake.
Want to save time or
don't want to use a brewer to make your own tea? Then purchase our
one quart or one gallon sizes of pre-brewed soil life tea with Yucca
Extract added.
Planters II Trace Mineral Fertilizer, registered as an Organic fertilizer in Washington State, contains all the trace minerals your plants need to achieve high levels of health and vitality. Planters II, mined from an ancient sea bed is a fine dust bound together by molasses, another ingredient which benefits all soil life.
Biosol Mix 7-2-3 is a 97% Natural Organic 3% Mined Fertilizer made from fermented Cotton Seed Meal, Soy Bean Meal with Sulfate of Potash Magnesia added, and when mixed into your soils will support soil building fungi and will become food for Aerobic Bacteria - soil organisms which in turn provide nutrients to your plants. A single application can last all year once organic materials have been built up in your soils.
Bio-Peat - is a fine
black peat containing significant quantities of dormant bacteria and fungi
and makes an excellent soil amendment because of the dormant soil life and
benefits bulbs, seeds, and transplants. Excellent for making compost
tea.
Calcium Kit -
contains 6 cups of Propel-It Lime, 5 cups Calphos soft rock phosphate, and 3
cups of Cal-Cm Plus Gypsum. These minerals are key to supplying
calcium, colloidal soft rock phosphate, and calcium sulfate nutrients to
your plants.
Zeolite - When mixed
in volume with these soils, it opens them up, allowing its particles to get
down into the soil and keep it open, thus promoting good aeration and
biological enzymatic action and allowing the plant to build a more complex
root structure, particularly the smaller capillaries that can not penetrate
a tight soil.
Yucca
Extract, another natural organic product, is mixed into brewed
Natures OwnGrowing System
Soil Life Tea and stimulates the
beneficial bacteria on plant surfaces and in the soils. Yucca's
saponin action makes plant cells more permeable to nutrient and water uptake. All of our Yucca is food grade quality. Check out the many human consumption uses of Yucca Extract.
Yucca can be taken to detoxify a smoker in about 20 days so they can stop
smoking with no withdrawal symptoms.
The "Spider Elimination Kit®" can catch poisonous spiders like the Hobo, Brown Recluse, Yellow Sac, Black Widow and most other spiders and bugs that may be roaming around your home or office, etc. Use our environmentally friendly non-poisonous traps to eliminate these and other crawling pests safely and effectively, without the risks of harmful chemical sprays.
