Humic Acid 12% w/w in the potassium form Humic Acid – 12% is a rich organic (carbon) complex aromic macromolecules with amino acid, sugar, peptides, aliphatic compounds involved in linkages between aromatic rings. The typical humate molecule contains free and bound phenolic and carboxylic acid groups, quinine structures and nitrogen and oxygen as bridge units between aromatic structures. Humates are colloidal in nature. In certain respects they behave like clay minerals.

How does Humic Acid work/Benefits ?

Improves water holding and nutrient availability.
Humates contain many beneficial groups such as the carboxylic (-ChooH) and phenolic(oH) groups. It is these with their negatively charged particles which make hamates very effective in chelating with most of the plant nutrients and important molecules. This is known as “ cat ion exchange capacity ” (CEC). By improving the CEC of soil, Humic Acid actually increases the soil ability to hold more nutrients and moisture for the plant utilize, which improves the efficacy of fertilizers.
