There was talk of using humic acids at groundswell,sounds like good stuff, has anyone tried it? Do u know where to get it from, how much to put on?

What do you need it to do? There are several ways to create your own never-ending supply but it is important to find out what you need it for and if you need it at all.There was talk of using humic acids at groundswell,sounds like good stuff, has anyone tried it?

Totally agree.Dunno about all that. We do feed humates here. Health problems are typically less here than others in the area, very hard to quantify effectiveness......
It certainly doesn't cost what that does.
Totally agree.
Wonder if it really matters where abouts in the soil/plant/animal cycle you place it, costwise vs benefit wise...
But I know in myself, if I forget to take it then I eventually end up noticing.
And smoking more cigarettes.....
There are huge quantities of humate already present in good soil- which is why I made the statement above about the economy of putting more on, but I can't deny it has a beneficial effect.
Bulking out the compost though, that made good sense to me. Hardest part was getting the truck back out..
Same with the biochar, although a little OT, do you feed any? Cattle here seem to love a little, or kelp, or anything else. Salt too...
