All you ever wanted to know aboutEarth Magic TM & TerraPro TM

By Michael Martin Melendrez

After many years of research and testing, we can now guarantee Earth Magic (retailname)&

TerraPro(commercial name) the most effective Soil Restoration product you can buy. When used asdirected, Earth Magicwill virtually stimulate a restoration of the Soil Food Web and contribute the

highest and most viable commercial source of Humus available world wide. Soil Secrets LLChas the

proprietary and intellectual knowledge to create humus from naturally occurring substances, rich inchelated trace minerals, beneficial soil microbes, Humic acid, Fulvic acid and much, much more. EarthMagicand TerraProare classified and guaranteed to be a sole source product that is unique and

exclusive to Soil Secrets and its agents.

Why Humus? Its accepted and recognized that humus is the indicator, cause and effect of a healthysoil. When Organic matter breaks down in the soil, the biotic community called the Soil Food Webeventually turns it into Humic substancesandNon-humic substances. At Soil Secretswe have

concluded that humus is the best material to use as a delivery system of our powerful soil inoculums.

Compared to compost, Earth Magic is many times more concentrated in humus, trace minerals and

beneficial soil microbes.

Why Microbes?There are many trophic levels of life in a healthy soil, contributing to the long-termdevelopment of topsoil, plant nutrient uptake and oxygenation of our planet. In most cultivated and

constructed soils, these trophic levels of microbiology are severely damaged and unable to recover in atimely manner. You cannot have a healthy plant or crop unless you first have a healthy soil and nofertilizer has ever made a soil ecosystem healthier. Many companies claim to have soil inoculums of

bacteria, algae, and fungi, but what they dont have is the full spectrum offered by Earth Magic and

TerraPro. The combined inoculums of bacteria, fungi, microbial predators, Mycorrhizal spores and

root tissues are made up in a balanced, stable concentrated blend put together by our staff of Soil

Scientists and Microbiologists. It is estimated that each gram of Earth Magic TerraPro Premium gradecontains ten billion viable cells and spores of microorganisms.

Notes: for over 20 years, I and members of my

professional staff have traveled the country collecting soil

samples under specific plant communities for the purposeof assembling a Microbe bank. Over 100 Ecotones have

been collected from along with over 1000 taxa of woody

plants and the associated soil microbiology. Collections

are either shared with Professional Mycorrhizal growers orplaced into our own Soil Farm here in New Mexico for

future harvesting and placement into our Earth Magic andEarth Nectar products.

Humus, Microbes and Minerals: humification is the secret and key to Earth Magic and ourInoculums viability. Soil Secrets, manufactures and markets Cultured Humus TMunder the trade

names TerraPro and Earth Magic. The key to the process is proprietary, but Michael will say that an

exact process of increasing the reaction rate between oxygen and humus precursors, such as phenols andhydroxybenzoic acids, to form quinones is the key. Amino acids produced by the rapid microbial

degradation of proteins react with quinones which then form complex, durable molecules called humic

polymers or humic substances better know by most people as Humus. Balancing the humus precursors,

the phenols and acids along with amino acids and proteins are all part of the complex chemical and

biological equation that Michael has been working on for the better part of two decades. Its all naturaland organic the way Nature makes humus.

Humus - mineral complexes The microorganisms of primitive "Archaeobacteria releasecompounded mineral ions from Rock Dust (included) so they are available for plant root uptake.

Archaeobacteria are collected from saltpans, hot springs, and volcanic regions all over the world by

Professional Microbial Biologists on contract with Soil Secrets. They are hardy and capable of living ina wide range of environmental conditions. Also, due to their primitive nature they coalesce to work as a

team, yielding a high efficiency ratio in the soil.

These ions are chelated into the Organic acid fraction of the humus making them more biologicallyavailable to plants. The Cultured Humus TM inEarth Magic/TerraProhas proven to promote a

healthier soil, faster growth on our tree farm, decrease seed germination time, reduce transplant shock,

produce more blooms and increase fruit production. Plants grown with Earth Magic/TerraPro exhibithealthier roots and increased disease and pest resistance.More on Enzymes and Microbes: Enzymes are organic catalysts. Catalysts are defined as substances

that will speed up or alter the rate of chemical reactions without the substance being altered or used up

in the process.

Humification, Catabolism and Anabolism:Humification is the process by which humus is made in

nature from dead organic matter. Complex organic compounds, in the presence of moisture, oxygen,aerobic microbes and enzymes, are broken down or transformed into humic compounds (Humic

Substances) in a process known as Catabolism and Anabolism. Catabolism means to break down and

Anabolism is to rebuild or build up. Enzyme action is specifically targeted to each reaction. For

example, protein-splitting enzymes will affect only proteins and not fats or carbohydrates. The enzymesused in this process are amylases, protease, cellulase and lipase.

Bacteria utilize enzymes to utilize organic waste as a food. Bacteria are organisms classified as harmful(pathogens) and harmless (non pathogenic). The bacterial cultures we select and use are indigenous to a

rich Soil Food Web and are often called soil born bacteria. The bacteria put into Earth Magic/TerraPro

andBetterGreeninclude a full spectrum of those recognized by government entities such as the EPA asbeing naturally occurring indigenous to soils and therefore of no concern to human health.

We have also cultured into Earth Magic several species of fungi that are capable of surviving in

environments that are very low in available nutrients. They can break down difficult to decomposeorganic materials and, with the help of organisms like protozoa (also cultured into Earth Magic), will

release these bound nutrients to plants.
