• THE CIRCLE Presents Alternative Thanksgiving W/Phive1baked

  Welcome to Your Average Grow (YAG): Chapter Two!The community is central to YAG—as Howling mentioned, you guys are YAG, we're just a part of it". Following the unexpected departure of co-host Johnny, Rev along with Stoney Alpinist and Howlingbuds are joined by their friends TooTall and Phive. Chapter Two sees YAG evolve into a new, community-focused format. Rev has decided not to replace Johnny with another permanent co-host, he won't force something that can't be forced. Instead, the main show will transition to a rotating host of several different people within the community. This new structure is designed to highlight the community's curiosity and knowledge. Guests will co-host episodes dedicated to topics they are passionate about or where they can chat with specific people, allowing the community to ask questions they so badly want answered. While the show is moving forward with one main host (instead of two "jackass idiots"), the tone remains candid, though Rev jokes there will be less “fucks”.Bottom line, we ain't going anywhere. Welcome to this new chapter, we’re glad you’re here.Consider the sourceR.I.P Captain America, my co-pilot, shadow and best friend

This episode is packed with invaluable, high-level knowledge and practical tips for home growers and aspiring vermicomposters: The Secret to Superior Soil: Learn why Missouri Worm Supply’s castings are lab-tested for fungal dominance (hitting "stupid high" numbers around 750 nanograms per gram) and how this microbiology enhances flavor in food and terpenes in cannabis.
