SuperSol 99

A concentrated source of humic acids which makes a liquid solution containing up to 17.5% Humic Acid (by weight). Solution is stable over a broad range of pH (0.5-14) and can be mixed with any liquid fertilizer without unexpected precipitation. Adds organic material in liquid form with a high percentage of humic/fulvic acids to your plants to enhance uptake of nutrients.

MV Soluble Powder

A concentrated source of humic acids which makes a liquid solution containing up to 12% Humic Acid (by weight). OMRI Listed Organic. Solution can be mixed with liquid fertilizer having a pH of 5.5 or higher. Adds organic material in liquid form with a high percentage of humic/fulvic acids to your plants to enhance uptake of nutrients. 

K Hume

ACTIVATED FOR ENHANCED SOLUBILITY POTASSIUM HUMATE containing 70% Humic Acid by weight (a non-plant food product) derived from Mesa Verde Humates. Humic Acids are natural agents containing both humic and fulvic fractions.  

A concentrated source of humic acids. Adds organic material containing humic acids to your soil to stimulate soil life. Improved solubility (76% soluble) to speed activity in the soil and enhance uptake. Naturally-occuring, unaltered oxidized lignite, coated and screened to various particle sizes (1-2mm, 1-6 mm, 2-6mm). K Hume also contains many supplemental natural minerals in trace amounts, including 3% potassium (dry weight basis)

Micromate

Micromate is the result of a revolutionary new micronizing technology and can be suspended in a liquid to deliver the maximum possible concentration of humic/fulvic acids, plus the important humin fraction, to your plants and soil in a liquid form (shipped as a dry concentrate).  

Micromate uses the advantage of the tremendous surface area to more readily improve your plants and soil. When in liquid form, a total humic/fulvic acid analysis of 24% exceeds any known liquid product on the market.

Humic DG

Humic DG is a uniform granule which utilizes a proprietary dispersible granule (DG) technology. Each granule will disperse into thousands of particles with irrigation or rainfall, facilitating incorporation of the product into the soil. The hard granule has a low moisture and dust content, allowing it to be easily blended with other components, such as urea-based fertilizers. Humic acid products, such as Humic DG, have demonstrated increased plant quality and production while improving and replenishing depleted soils.  

Guaranteed analysis 62% humic acids.

What are the Benefits?


Overview

Humates are highly compressed, natural organic humus, the decayed remains of tropical rain forests which existed millions of years ago in what is now the southwestern United States. Humate deposits were once buried deeply but have been exhumed to near-surface conditions and oxidized by bacterial action in exactly the same way as humus is formed in rich agricultural soils. Thus, humates provide a concentrated source of naturally-occurring humus to your soil. Humates have a high humic acid content (humic acid is one of the most biochemically active elements in humus). The minerals and trace elements contained in humates and in the soil are readily available to plants through organic complexing. Adding Humates is the most efficient way to increase the humus content of soil, as it is highly concentrated and much easier to apply than any other form of humic matter. Also, since humates are completely decomposed, they enter into no nutritional competition with plants for nutrients such as nitrogen (not the case with incompletely decomposed compost).  

Using humates restores the natural balance in soil necessary for optimal plant growth. The benefits found in this section are some of the results you can expect from applying humates.
