Wait, I thought Roots, Shoots and Blooms. Nitrogen is required for root establishment, Phosphorus for shoots/stems/greens and potassium for blooms. Have I lost my mind???
Thanks! If humid acid is the breakdown/decay of plant/animal and human decomposition why is there one place in New Mexico (? still early in am) that has the most or highest concentration of Humic Acid? Wouldn’t a deciduous forest’s floor dirt also have a high amount? Also, I create worm castings (well my wormies do) and came here trying to understand what Humic Acid actually is. I have heard that worm castings also create Humic acid given that they consume the bacteria that decompose both carbon/nitrogen/ fungal materials. Are worm castings considered to contain Humic acid considering they eat a wide spectrum diet as well as a chelating agent (molasses- unsulfered). I’ll look for a video on your site. If not, is there a simple way to answer???
Great video and easy to understand explanations!! What happens to the fulvic acid after it delivers the the positive ion to the roots..does it go and get more and redeliver to the roots again or breakdown or something else? Thank you!
Τόσα χρόνια ήμασταν στα τυφλά τελικά μικροοργανισμούς μυκόριζες τριχόδερμα και όλους τους οφέλημους μικροοργανισμούς συγχαρητήρια μετά απο ζημιές πού έπαθα αυτά υπερβολικά φάρμακα ξύπνησα!! Και στ α αχτινίδια μόνο χωμικά και ελάχιστα χημικά και σώθηκαν τα δέντρα μου
Humic substances don’t exist in soil. Humic substances come from mixing a highly caustic substance with a low grade coal and the byproduct is humic acid, fulvic acid and the non soluble fraction humin. Soils don’t actually contain these molecules by themselves. I challenge you to find me any evidence of humic substances in soil naturally.
Dr Elaine Ingham. And do occur naturally in good compost. What do you think low grade coal is? But you are right that most humic acids on the market are derived with this method.
Yes low grade coal is where we derive our humics from but low grade coal and coal were formed completely differently than compost and soil organic matter. Completely different processes.
If I understand what I read about it correctly, the fungus is taking carbohydrates from the plant, while giving the plant nutrients. So I think it's basically serving as extensions for the roots, but I hope someone will correct me if I'm wrong. From what I've seen online, it looks like fruits tend to benefit from the application, with the exception of blueberries and cranberries.
Hey, I ordered some of this was wondering if it is slow release and should apply to top soil at start of my grows or should I apply through grow in a tea? :) thank you
Does it naturally lowers the ph in soil fast or is it like sulfur where it can take months for the bacteria to break it down and convert into acidic ? Or does it lower ph instantly ?
The best thing that this video does is show the absurdity of soil chemistry - a spinning wheel of lobster hands grabbing cats off sand particles from the rain.
Wood ash, compost, gypsum, and 10-10-10. Fall leaves are free. After tomatoes start growing apply leaves to all bare ground around tomatoes. Keeps soil moisture better more even. Prevents yellowing of plants. This works great here in Minnesota. Keep gardening fun.
