Maguey Minis + Episode Three
How do agaves reproduce?
In our third installment of Maguey Minis we talk reproduction! Lorena Teran Ibarra (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/27-lorena-terran-ibarra) explains both sexual and asexual reproductive mechanisms. We dive deep into the ways in which challenging environmental circumstances can initiate this plant’s inherent intelligence, driving it to reproduce.
In this episode, you will learn about the anatomy of the quiote and its inflorescence. How pollination occurs or doesn’t, and all the ways genetic clones are produced. Please please please check out the images (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/maguey-minis-episode-three) we curated and formatted for this episode, it really helps to have a visual reference for everything we cover:)
Each Maguey Mini episode has its own web page at TUYO.NYC (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave) and includes supportive educational materials such as diagrams, images and charts. We also created a vocabulary page (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/vocabulary/maguey-minis-terminology-and-vocabulary) with a list of terms and topics used throughout this series. Please take a look (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/maguey-minis-episode-three) and tell us what you think!

How do agaves grow?
In our second installment of Maguey Minis, Lorena Teran Ibarra (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/27-lorena-terran-ibarra) explains the anatomy of the agave plant. We begin with the difference between monocots and eudicots and describe the latter’s particular spiral growth patterns.
We discuss the leaves or pencas of the plants and touch on some of the different morphological variations they can present.
Did you know magueys breath at night?! We explain CAM photosynthesis and the impressive way these plants store their carbon dioxide for later use.

What’s in a name?
Introducing our new miniseries all about agave plants! Joining Sabrina is our resident agave educator, Lorena Teran Ibarra (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/27-lorena-terran-ibarra). Lore is the director of Copita Project for El Buho Mezcal where she leads the regenerative agriculture and educational programs.
In this first episode, we cover the origin of the word Agave and explain the binomial nomenclature system that classifies all living things. We also introduce other names for the plant given by first nation communities in their native languages. We share some stats on how many species are used to make mezcal, and Lore describes the four new agave species recently classified in 2019.
This is episode one of a three-part miniseries all about the agave plant. In future episodes, we will cover morphology, growth strategies as well as sexual and clonal reproduction.
Each episode clocks in at around 20 min each. Our goal was to break down the info into digestible segments. We consider this series a comprehensive introduction to the plant itself. Think of it as agave plants 101. If you love mezcal and agave spirits we hope this miniseries will make you appreciate these majestic plants even more!
We created a vocabulary page with a list of terms and topics we will use throughout this series. It includes all relative links and can be found by going to the official episode webpage (https://tuyo.nyc/blogs/hey-hey-agave/maguey-minis-episode-one).
