Research at Clemson and Virginia Tech Universities has demonstrated that humic acid can provide an additive biostimulant effect. Fulvic acid is the portion of humic acid that is soluble over the widest pH range.

Fulvic Acids:

• Are a powerful organic electrolyte, which helps dissolve minerals and metals, so it transforms minerals to make them more readily available for absorption.

• Work more in the plant, whereas humic acids, on the other hand work more in the soil.

• Contribute to plant health and physiological fitness by enhancing the availability of nutrients, vitamins, coenzymes, and auxins

• Enhance plant metabolism so they can help make turf more stress tolerant and disease resistant.

• Increase the amount of carbohydrates in the plant. More carbohydrates means more energy and reserves.
