Rich soils and composts contain large amounts of Humus. This critical form of organic matter improves soil structure, aeration, nutrient retention, and provides a haven for beneficial microbes. Without humus, you do not have soil – you have only dirt. When you look at soils on a microscopic level, you find the most important and bio-chemically active part of humus is substances called Humic Acids.

Our Soil Conditioner is a unique product in that it contains seaweed and molasses for added plant health, vitality and pest resistance. It is a high quality source of Carbon that contains a wide variety of major and trace minerals

Benefits of adding Humic Acid to the soil

• Increases the nutrient holding capacity of the soil.
• Improves fertilizer utilization by “chelating” nutrients, which puts them into a more absorbable form.
• Buffers pH problems by allowing plants to get nutrients otherwise “locked” in the soil due to high or low pH.
• Increases and enlarges root systems and promotes plant cell division.
• Helps buffer the effects of high salts in soils whether from natural soil conditions or due to excess fertilizers, ocean water or even dog urine
• Improves the growth of various groups of beneficial microorganisms including those that help detoxify soils. Often used in soil bioremediation projects.
• Changes the physical and mechanical properties of the soil in structure, color, and consistency. Helps aerate and bioactivate soils.
• Increases the permeability of plant membranes, promotes more efficient nutrient uptake of foliar nutrients.
• Adds Carbon and aids in correcting plant chlorosis.
• Improves germination rates of seed.
