Soil Activator

Utilize a great all purpose soil conditioning product that's great for lawns, gardens, and ornamental plantings. Read through the information below to learn the many benefits of incorporating natural carbon and humates into your soils.

GENERAL BENEFITS OF HUMATES:
Humate is a natural product and has no chemical additives.

Humate is an organic compost containing a high concentration of humic acid which is recycled back into the soil.

Humate holds nutrients in a usable form and releases them to the growing plant as needed. It stretches out the food availability between feedings.

Humate helps aerate the soil. It assists in preventing formation of large lumps and stratification of the soil.

Humate activates the decomposition of new compost and grass clippings.

Humate increases the water-holding capacity of soils. Soil containing humate resists drought more effectively and produces better yields where rainfall or irrigation may otherwise be insufficient.

Humate improves the workability of the soil. Heavy clay soils can be worked into satisfactory seed beds and marginal soils into profitable soils. Soils are more crumbly.

Humate reduces soil erosion by increasing the cohesive forces of very fine soil particle and promotes desirable drainage and water intake.

BENEFITS OF HUMATES ON YOUR LAWN:

Promotes decomposition of grass clippings and thatch, turning them into valuable soil nutrients

Improves soil structure (clay soils will become crumblier, sandy soils show improved moisture retention)

Increases availability of soil nutrients, improving plant nutrition

Enhances seed germination, emergence, and survival

Improves root development

Improves plant vigor and appearance (visual quality)

Little or no increased frequency of mowing

Makes your plants less susceptible to stress
