My fertilizer sponsor recommended the addition of these to my Fish and Kelp spray. Along with a weekly dose of Calcium. My question is, Is anyone out there using a Fulvic and Humic acid foliar spray. The reports look phenomenal, like a super steroid for plants increasing nutrient uptakes by 30%.

Shannon,
*Don't* use the humic acids as a foliar during the flowering stage, it very well may kill the flowers.

Shannon, I added humatic acid to my soil. I tried it on all the seedlings except one, and the results are great so far. The one without the humatic acid is lagging behind. So today i will be adding it to that seedling. I didnt know that you can use it as a foilar spray. The product i get here is pelleted. Email me and tell me where you are getting it as a foilar spray. Thanks, Kenny

I had this saved to this computer but bookmarked down stairs. Try saving this as a pdf for future reference. It is a "good" document with only several nit-picky items of contention. (I don't agree that humates "become part of clay". Rather they bind too tightly to rationalize with current extraction methods/processes) Still a good read when time permits (48 pages).
