10 lbs per 1000 sq ft if you are talking about granular humic acid.

Organic farms use 50lb per acre first application, then lower amounts in the future.

Is there a documented reason to use the moron theory in a pumpkin patch?

lol Dan....not sure but I could try your theory. I just recently bought 3 x 50 lbs bags so I guess I am good for about 15 years for my backyard patch....oh well.

We use 50 lbs per 1000 ft2. I have heard of growers using double that.
