Details

FOR ESTABLISHED LAWNS:

Apply 10 lbs. per 1,000 square feet of lawn area in early spring and again in late fall along with normal lawn fertilization program. Soils low in organic matter will respond better to application rates of 20 to 30 lbs. per 1,000 square feet. Water in after application.

FOR NEW LAWNS:

Apply 10 to 15 lbs. per 1,000 square feet prior to soil preparation. Till or work into the soil before seeding. Water in after seeding of lawn. Poor, sandy soil will require application rates of 20 to 30 lbs. per 1,000 square feet. Reapply in early fall.

FOR FLOWER BEDS AND VEGETABLE GARDENS:

Apply 1 to 1 1/2 lbs. per 100 square feet before soil preparation for planting. Incorporate into the top 2 inch to 4 inch of soil at time of planting. Water in after application. Use as needed. This is determined by cropping system, environment and soil type. For best results, make a second application in late fall before tilling or turning under plant stubble.

FOR INDOOR AND PATIO CONTAINER GROWN PLANTS:

One teaspoon for 9 inch or smaller pots; one tablespoon for 12 inch or larger pots. Broadcast on the surface or incorporate in top 1 inch to 2 inch of soil. Apply every 3 to 4 months. Water in after application.

    Easy Application, Keeps Soil Loose

    By Chris on 09/07/2019

    Applied this during a lawn project that began with a low mow, dethatching and core aeration. Applied a top dressing of topsoil/compost and went over it with this and a 6-4-0 fertilizer. I applied seed somewhat heavily, rolled it in and watered religiously. I had germination of the ryegrass seeds after five days. I then applied a liquid 6-19-0. After 7 days, I pulled on a seedling and it snapped. The root actually remained. Having that much root strength after 7 days is incredible and I would largely attributed it to this. It seemed to dissolved immediately. I would used it again.

    Easily Applied Soil Additive

    By Pete on 10/28/2019

    My lawn has been experiencing growth problems even though I had 5 fertilizer applications per year. I read up on the valud of adding humic acid and tried this granular product. I have noticed increased greening of the grass compared to the adjacent lawns.

    Just What My Lawn Needed

    By Roy on 04/03/2020

    Humic Acid arrived quickly and was my second application, first was last fall. The humic acid makes your fertilizer work better and it results in the thicker,greener lawn. I am sold on the product and will continue to use.
