Definitions

These definitions are defined to explain what each word/term implies in a Agricultural context;

Aerobic Organisms - Organisms that needs air/oxygen to survive. A source for these organisms is Compost Tea

Anaerobic Organisms - Organisms that does not need air/oxygen to survive. A source for such organisms is EM (Effective Micro-Organisms).

Aeroponic -

Chelating - On a molecular level ions have positive and negative fields. The positive ions connect with the negative, like magnets. When you have a very strong positive ion like Hydrogen, it will seek negative ions to balance itself out. When the positive and the negative meet they "chelate" to form a whole molecule. Thus it is the process that connects them that is called chelating, they bond. We use this process to balance out the highly active and destructive "Hydrogen" found in most fertilizers.

Compost Tea - Using the aerobic organisms in verified composts, the organisms can be extracted and multiplied. By using these (more the a million species) organisms can soil conditions be restored allowing your soil to return to virgin like (unfarmed) conditions.

EM - Effective Micro-organisms. These are a limited (100-200 species) number of organisms that can even be used to clean up oil spills. They have an excellent capability to neutralize chemicals in soils. We use it mainly for rehabilitation purposes.

Humates - A carbon based substance that has a very strong negative polarity, making it usefull to balance the damaging effects of fertilizers, before applying it. Carbon is also the basic building blocks for life.
