Effective, Easy to Apply, Ready to Work

 

At Dr Forest we deliver increased product performance at a cost effective price. It is a dry, mostly soluble humic product derived from agricultural grade, raw (non-soluble) humates. Our mother source is estimated to be 45 million years old. Dissolving this ancient material using typical extraction methods such as high heat, denatures and reduces efficacy. Instead, my supplier developed a dry to dry conversion method for creating Dr Forest’s humic acid without the aid of heat, resulting in a product that has superior performance in the field. Unlike raw humic substances, our product is concentrated, easy to blend, cost effective to ship and readily available for today’s crops. In it’s dry form our humic acid is stable indefinitely. Liquid humic acids degrade.

Humic substances vary greatly in source, concentration and quality. The best sources for agriculture are formed in the presence of fresh water where large-leafed plants grew during the cretaceous period. Most deposits around the world, including Leonardite, were formed in salt water where grasses grew during the older carboniferous period. This older material is more closely related to coal and oxidized slack lignite and very low in the bio-stimulating fraction. There are few working deposits that have both desirable attributes; fresh water formation an protected from weathering and oxidation.  Dr Forest uses premium humic substances, formed in fresh water, that have been protected from cracking and uplift. They are high in all important fractions. Even in a singe formation, deposits a few miles apart can have significantly different qualities. Due to the large degree of differences in source materials it’s important to work with specialists who understand and know what to look and test for.

Questions

 

Why add Humic Acid to my fertiliser program?

Dr Forest’s Humic Acid is a premium, agricultural grade humic substance, sourced specifically for the grower market (i.e not low grade overburden from coal like many other products).

According to the state of California and Oregan it “may increase micronutrient uptake”.

 

How does Humic Acid effect soil biology?

Humic acid adds carbon. Carbon is not ony essential for balancing the carbon to nirgoen ratio, but is also invaluable for maintaining an optimum microbial community. It may been demonstrated that humic in Ful-Humix STIMULATE BENEFICIAL SOIL BACTERIA AND FUNGAL BIOMASS ACTIVITY.

 

Is Dr Forest’s Humic Acid soluble and readily available?

Dr Forest’s Humic Acid is 85% water soluble. Unlike raw or “suspendable” humate, which can take many years to break down, it’s readily available, and concentrated. Because of a unique manufacturing method that improves product efficacy, approximately 15% is insoluble humin and mineral. If using a sprayer, and concerned with clogging, settle this portion out and add it to your outside garden soil separately.

 

Is Dr Forest’s Humic Acid for use in organic farming?

It is OMRI and OIM listed. The parent materials are sourced from within the United States.

 

Does Ful-Humix expire or go bad?

In dry form it has no expiration date unlike most liquid humic products.
