“I have never had success rooting woody herbs before, but decided to give it a go with VermisTerra worm tea. I took an oregano and rosemary cutting, put them each in a jar of water with a capful of worm tea. I changed the water/tea solution every few days, and they rooted very nice, healthy roots in about three weeks. They grew in the water/tea solution very nicely for a few more weeks, and then I planted them in a small container of soil. Soon they will get planted out in the garden, or given to a friend.” — Kim, Southern CA

Comment from VermisTerra: The reason why this works so well is because the VermisTerra tea has a pH of 3.8-4 which makes all the elements and trace minerals in the tea available to the cutting! The natural growth hormones get those roots going fast, and the beneficial microbes protect the roots for transplanting!

Lettuce garden – My lettuce garden receives a weekly dose of VermisTerra worm tea, and produced loads of lettuce through a fall heat wave, and is still going strong today, well into the winter. We eat out of it every single day! And because the worm tea makes the plant tissues stronger, the greens last me 7-10 days in the fridge after harvesting! –Kim, Southern CA aka CaliKim29 on Youtube

VermisTerra Earthworm Tea – Liquid Gold
Although I had a worm bin at one time, I found it time consuming and difficult to produce the amount of worm castings I needed for my garden, let along produce worm tea.
VermisTerra does all the heavy lifting with their ready made earthworm tea. Their worm tea is microbial-rich concentrate, shelf-stable, comes in a quart or a gallon size, and is a snap to use on my garden. Along with VermisTerra’s worm castings, I have been using their worm tea in my garden for several month – the results are impressive! I like to call it “liquid gold”.

Strawberry Crate Tower watered with worm tea thrives in frost
Strawberry Crate Towers – Many of you have seen my strawberry crate towers in my videos. To test the effectiveness of VermisTerra worm tea, for several months, I watered one tower with VermisTerra worm tea once a week, and the other towers with the same liquid fertilizer I have always used once a week. The strawberry plants watered with worm tea held up to frosts with minimal damage to the leaves, have larger leaves, and are starting to flower. The plants that did not receive their “cuppa” VermisTerra worm tea had significant more leaf damage after a frost, leaves are smaller, and have no flowers. Worm tea at work!

We make our own guacamole using fruit from our backyard avocado and lemon tree. My 30 year old rough lemon tree became sick and producing small shriveled lemons. I tried many fertilizers but nothing worked. I was afraid it was going to die, so I pruned all the leaves off. I planned to take the tree out and say so long. My grandson came to visit and he wanted to try to save the tree. I didn’t think it was possible, but he watered it with VermisTerra Tea when he came to visit. After about 6 months, what a surprise! It’s come back to life and is already giving healthy lemons! — Carlos Galeazzi, San Gabriel CA

My papaya tree usually gives off 10-20 fruits. I usually lose a few to frost. This year my grandson gave me VermisTerra Tea so I used it. Now that one tree has over 60 papayas growing on it. It was also healthy enough to survive a few days of temperatures in the high 30s with no lost fruit! Let me tell you, they are the sweetest papayas that I’ve tasted.  – Carlos Galeazzi, San Gabriel CA

 

“I have been a cattle rancher in California for 20yrs. 3rd generation cattle ranchers are rare. Even more rare are believers in new products that live up to their billing. One such product that I give full endorsement to is the VermisTerra by JL Organics worm tea. We grew a pasture mix for 10yrs to augment the cattle during the drought yrs. For the last three of those years I used the wormtea exclusively. Ask anyone living in the Central Coast of California what the average rainfall was from 2006-2015. On our ranch we averaged only 4-5″ of sporadic rainfall on a good year. I began applying the tea as recommended and a dramatic improvement to both yield and color was the result. I can’t explain the reasoning. However, all of my neighbors were impressed to see the results firsthand. The cattle were the real beneficiaries. I had heavy bales, with color and ripe heads. As a rancher you trust in your abilities, listen to your gut and stay aware of Mother Nature. I trusted my gut that the VermisTerra by JL Organics worm tea was the right product for me. I’m glad I trusted in my abilities.”

Thank you Mr. Lee for your product,
— Arron J. Cognina, Salinas CA

After using VermisTerra Tea, we got our peach harvest earlier than all the other farms, which means more money at the market. We sprayed the tea onto berm and let the rain water it in. My father and I water from opposite rows, and we ran out on one row in the middle. That one row was two feet shorter than the other trees. Another farmer grew the same stock, same variety, planted on the same day, and harvested the same day. He got fourty percent less crop than we did. It was very obvious the power of the earthworm tea. We’ve been using it for four years now (since 2013) and we harvested early every single year since using VermisTerra.  Each year it’s a full crop (nothing goes to waste) which is unheard of!  – Jason McHaley, Reedley CA

My friend’s mango farm saw both size and tonnage increase after using VermisTerra tea. They went from using 12 different fertilizers to just this one. They’ve been using the earthworm casting tea since 2010 to today. Their organically grown mangos are sold at Wholefoods Market.”

My 20 acres of grapefruit and lemon were struggling with Phytophthora and HLB disease. We lost 20% of the grove, and another 20% were infected. When we started using VermisTerra earthworm castings tea, within a year we saw a reversal of decline of the tree. Within a year and a half, the trees made a comeback. We didn’t lose another tree after that and in fact increased production of all the trees in the grove. I recommend my childhood friend to use the VermisTerra tea on his organic lemon orchards. He’s been using it for five years. These organic lemons are sold directly to Wholefoods Market.”

A well known organic blueberry company experimented by giving VermisTerra tea to some bushes and none to a control group. They saw increased tonnage of 20% on the trees that received VermisTerra tea, even after deciding to apply late in the season. Lab results at the end revealed that beneficial fungi and bacteria counts were high.
