What can Humic Acid do for plants and soil?
Humic acid is a growth stimulant and a chelating agent. It will free up nutrients in the soil making them readily available for plants to take up. This is especially useful when dealing with clay soils as clay can “bind” nutrients preventing plants from taking them up. It naturally increases the microbial activity in the soil which in turn produces a larger, healthier root mass. Humic Acids are the active soil fractions of stable soil humus. These structures have the ability to influence many reactions in the soil, enhancing the soils performance, including cation exchange capacity, soil structure stability, water retention, microorganism activity, and a buffering action. By this buffering action the toxic effects that inorganic fertilizer and soil salts, that may be in your soil, are greatly reduced. And there is more: • Increases a plant’s tolerance for drought Oxygenates the soil & improves water penetration • Long term use results in better soil structure, organic content and it ev
