So we told you about the moo poo teas that we use – even though we wanted to keep it secret.  We told you about our favorite gardening tools, and how we fight off gardening ninjas w/ them.  We are scared we may have given away all our secrets to having a great garden and maintaining it.  Oh well.

Another day, another secret.  Today’s secret – Great Big Plants (GBP if your cool) Organic Liquid Compost.  We came across GBP about 3 years ago or so and have used it ever since.  When we first got into the whole “organic” thing – we were looking around for fertilizer to help us keep it both organic and still give us that BOOM when it comes to growth.  Great Big Plants came across our radar and we have been a dedicated customer ever since.

I’m sure some of you are thinking – wait a second, you said that y’all use Annie’s Authentic Haven Brand Manure Teas!  You are right.  We do.  We actually rotate between both the manure teas & Great Big Plants – giving our plants a silly boost of growth.  It seems to work for us, if you have ever been in our backyard jungle and seen what we are doing – you would agree.  Our tomato plants LOVE Great Big Plants – and by Fall… they are Great Big Plants.

Great Big Plants is a liquid compost concentrate that basically rebuilds your soil (instead of just being a fertilizer), so you can use it when you are transplanting, afterwards and everywhere in between.  It is great for when you first put your transplants in – because it gives the soil a boost to help minimize that length of time when plants seem to stall in terms of growth and it does it naturally!  You can’t beat that.  It also helps with mature plants, continually feeding the soil to build a better soil and a bigger plant.  If you aren’t using it – you need to be.

Wanting to try this yourself?  Well we got you covered w/ a quart size bottle of Great Big Plants Organic Liquid Compost – but also, if you want to purchase some for your garden/plants – hop over to their website and use the discount code they made for us…

That will give you 15% off your order and get you on your way to having Great Big Plants (I think that was a pun?!?), sorta. 

So do your think – leave a comment below and you are entered.  Pay attention too… most of you guys are good – but some of you, HAVE YOU EVER USED A COMPUTER BEFORE?!?  If I have to move another comment from another post into this one because you just comment about stuff at random – I am going to personally deliver some compost tea… to the top of your head!  Geeze.  It is fairly simple – just click the lil link below… and comment.  Don’t go 7 pages deep and comment on a post that claims the winner of some gloves we gave away over a week ago.    I laugh about it, but then I get angry and cry myself to sleep.  Get to it!  Sign up, tell your friends – Facebook it – Tweet it – blog it!  Please!  We will leave this one up for the entire weekend, because even I need a day off.  So you have two days, take advantage of it.   Until next time… good luck & good gardening!
