- Does Humic Acid Really work for Lawns? | 2 Year Results After two years of using humic acid products what do you think the results are? Does humic acid work? Send humates and Full Vic acid really amend our soil profile? Do liquid humic acid and granular humic acid work the same? After two years of using Humacao acid I am really shocked to see my results in the soil.

It's nice to be able to see the fruits of your spraying and praying! Nice work Bro.
+The Lawn Care Nut heck yea! Iâm so appreciate for you introducing all of us to JP and the N-ext products! Thank You!!
Hey Jeremy. Last weekend I was cutting in some new edges and noticed the same thing. Iâm 2 years in and my clay soul has completely transformed into dark black and the roots are crazy deep. Appreciate all the advice from you and the the lawn care community.
Iâm so glad to hear this Scott! That Humic is pretty amazing!
How deep did you dig? How much do you think you have applied, over that time?
Went down about 6â and it was jet black. Iâve probably done about 40-50 oz per 1000.
đ„đ„đ„ thatâs pretty impressive. đł
Awesome results! I have been using the biostims for a little over a month and believe they make a huge difference. My lawn is improving every day. Thanks for the recommendation Jeremy.
... Fire in bound with time! Your gunna lite your lawn up!! Iâm telling ya, with time and apps.. these products are đ„ that soil is not going to do anything, BUT get better!!
Impressive! Had no idea that a clay dirt could physically change like that!! Thanks for sharing
No problem Robert! Humic acid comes from the agricultural side , where they have used it for years. They knew they had to have good crops quickly so they didnât leave it to time.
Feel free to reach out any time!
Short and sweet. I have time for these. Thanks!
Wish CZcamsâs algorithm thought the same thing. đ Youâre welcome!
Great Video Jeremy!! Love the Ending how you did that ;)
Thank you, I always try to do new things every video.. trying different things with editing.. some things arenât much, others are pretty fun...
Thanks for posting this. It's encouraging.
Really is! There is a lot to look forward to!
Very nice. Cant wait to start!
Going to be fire on your lawn! As soon as you get the sprinklers, and new seed in.... itâs gunna be fire for you! I canât wait to see your progress!!
Nice visual demo and thanks for the stats on how much humate has been applied over time.
Thank you! Iâm glad I could share my results to help decisions!
That is a lot of depth my goodness! I had no idea
Good things come to those who participate.
Humic has made a big change to my lawn just after 8 months of use. Started with granular and went to liquid. This once compacted TN soil is soft and holds water much better - Itâs the real deal. Thanks for the video.
Thx for the testimonial! I love hearing repeatable results!
Pretty Cool! I sprayed an app of Humic-12 today. Iâm a believer in the Bio-stem pack too.
Well done, way to throw fire! itâs crazy how much itâs done for my lawn so quickly (years wise!)
great vid bro! keep up the good work
Thanks turfstore! Much appreciated!
Awesome video great to see how the humic is working on your lawn...
I agree! itâs amazing!Thank you brother!
Purchased my house 2yrs ago. Clay soil. The backyard was a swamp after hard rains. Last yr along with having some drains installed, i started amending my soil with humic and sea kelp. In less than a full yr i can already see the difference. Alot is due to the drains, but i also see vast improvement in spots the drains do not effect. No more puddles, let alone puddles that would take a wk to absorb. I'm excited to see continuing improvement going forward.
What I love to hear! Awesome!!
I have been applying humic acid to my sandy soil alongside microbes and etc to try and get the soil alive and amend the low life and organic matter in it and get it up to a more sustainable place.
smart, If you get a low compost in there as well that'll help quite a bit. Acid overtime will actually build your organic material and your tilt to your soil and it will hold moisture way better be in a sand
@@TheGreenerLawn Compost is so espensive here as to be prohibitive and even with a large yard I dont produce enough materials to compost anything myself.
@@TheGreenerLawn My second issue is micronutrients depleting frequently and having to apply them over and over again its expensive. Soil is being used for a vineyard and orchard not a lawn but still a battle.
Thats a cool short vid mate. Well done! very interesting indeed
+The Aussie Lawn thanks! Yup, I was shocked to see it. I really didnât expect it to be that dramatic after 2 years and not a whole lot of product applied.
The Greener Lawn yeah I was shocked / impressed mate thatâs for sure
I'm so glad I found this video. I have 100% clay as well. I'm having it harley raked and blending in chicken manure compost next month. How soon after seeding can I apply humic?
Immediatly, it will not harm see or hinder to your process at all.
Thanks for a brief and to-the-point video. Not interested in 20 minutes of lawn care drama, etc.

I used to use Best 9-9-9 Super Iron fert for my lawn and plants⊠itâs good, but has no soil improving components at all and itâs all chemical. So, itâs only short-term nutrients, but long term salt buildup and compaction from the chemicals. Bad for soil.
Switched to Gro Power Plus 5-3-1 (has a 70% humus base and 15% humic acids) just last week.
It has weaker NPK⊠but I think/hope the humus and humic-acids will be much better for the long term - conditioning and improving the soil.
I hope to see good results. đ€
Your spot on, I think you will be super happy and impressed with your switch, even though lower analysis! The amendments will improve your growing medium, which in turn will feed the Nutrients, bot need as much supplementation, as the soil is doing what itâs suppose to do.
I have very similar results⊠had very hard clay when I moved in and these bio stimulants have completely changed my soil for the better
Love to hear it!
How long did it take to change the soil texture?
Finally purchased after discussing my lawn issues with you last fall. If you remember, got an area that seems hydrophobic. Could i add a surfactant to maximize absorption? I read that humic acid, itself, can be used as surfactant so not sure if I'm wasting time/money. Thanks!
Play it simple, use baby shampoo to do the early work of breaking up the soilâs hydrophobic nature.
czcams.com/video/JQAS5oGQaVg/video.html
It will help the short term affects, while the humic acid gets in there and works for the long term amendments. Any soil enters the right circumstances can go hydrophobic, and thatâs where baby shampoo can break it, but better soils, have a less tendency to go hydrophobic.
You will like this purchase it will definitely help out your lawn.
Love Humic! I use that one in the BioStim the most. Infact I am basically out of that one. Time to pick up some more. Your roots are looking great! Do you think that is from the Humic or the RGS?
Combo of all of it. I didnât show those at all. There was a plug I pulled at 10â that had roots intertwined the full thing. I was more foccused on the amendment of the soil lol ...
The Greener Lawn I am gonna RGS and Air8 on sometime in the next week before I water. Looks like things are going get hot here in UT. Keep up the great work, I love your channel!
Perfect application! As you well know, my fave!!! It does wonders!!
Would you recommend 12% strength or 6% humic? How often to apply for a rough ground for lawn please? How many oz/1000 sq ft?
12% more the better. with that said, any is better then 0%. My recommendation, if your using a Humic with no nitrogen, just put all of it out as quick as possible equally across the whole yard. it will never amend a bottle.
Nice. This is my second year and I can tell
I bet! It does wonders! What are you seeing?
That's an outstanding result. When is the best time to use it. Can I use Humic acid on new seed in renovation or does it have to be an established lawn?
Thanks
Anytime, there isnât a bad time. It can be applied b4, after or even during seeding. Just remember, itâs not an immediate product, as itâs a soil bio stimulant, but it stays in your soil as a carbon source for years! So slow start develops results over time!
I started with a granular humic last season and full biostem pack this season. So far my problem areas are looking healthy and full. Documenting my progress and hoping I stand out in the summer heat!
đŻ, def going in the right direction for sure! Keep me informed on how you perform during the heat!
Another awesome video dude. Do you recommend rgs and humic12 for Bermuda grass (tifway419)
For sure! That combo will will make your Bermuda take off... even more then Bermuda does! It will make your soil more fertile and the roots and stolens go crazy!
Thank you!
The Greener Lawn thanks

Does this raise the acidity PH in your soil? I am currently between a 5.0 to 5.75. I am starting a lime treatment. Actually a calcium quick lime. Live in upstate NY.
Yumpin Yiminy nothing like lime will do for you. Lime will be your quickest hit, this will hell make the soil amend its self over time, so your soil stay healthier. This will help the grass thrive in the low PH conditions as it will help unlock minerals bound by the soil (in addition to the lime).
Similar results here! Had the most compacted soil and humic/ sea kelp has done wonders
Letâs gooo!!
Wow you're soill looks just like mine here in Georgia which is very surprising since you are in Utah.
+Randy Man itâs really bad! We just havenât gotten the catchy Georgia red clay name, but it doesnât change the fact itâs pretty bad. BUT.... not any more for me đđ»
Love it

What depth was the clay at before you started spraying?
When we built the house in 2016 it was 100% clay. When I hydroseeded the lawn 2017 June, it was 100% clay. I began using Humic acid March 30, 2018. If you back through my videos, you will see all the applications....
So when I started it was at the surface.
Humic is the true đŠ pee of the pack. Comes in handy in summer heat. Results are awesome Jeremy.
Very true! It helps with so much! Itâs definitely something that provides so much for our Soils and over all grass health!
Great video!! Educate me on the 1/3 cutting rule. Exactly what happens if you donât follow it?
Mr. Green thumb shock.. you will shock the lawn and see brown spots.. not that the turf is any less healthy, but the healthy looking green is at the top of the blades
Also depends the type of grass as well, my experiences is with Bermuda that likes to be cut short
+Mr. Green thumb it stresses the lawn. What it means, that if you like your lawn 2 inches, you can let it grow to 3 inches cut 1 inch off and that is 1/3 of the blade. That will keep that grass from dressing out or scalping. So never cutting more the 1/3 will keep your lawn from stressing out. Make sense?
This vid would explain it too :
How High Should I Mow the Lawn- Length Matters 1/3 rule czcams.com/video/qQyc_FGQChE/video.html
cmase1000 yes I have Bermuda as well. Keep mine at 2 inches because of leveling issues.
The Greener Lawn makes perfect sense l. Thx
How long do think it will be until I can see a difference with humic 12? I can't even plant grass seed in my front yard because it's so compacted
Humic alone? Umm depends on amount and other amendments. Iâm going to error on the side of safe and say 3months to 3 years (full turn around). BUT.... I have seen it help fill in grass spots in 30 days that was compacted from a excavator driving back and fourth, I have a video on that.
How heavy are you going and what else are you using?
@@TheGreenerLawn I'm putting liquid aeration buy simple lawn solutions and humichar from Andersons, I also have alot of clay in my yard.
@@jordantee2383 reach out to me at JeremyofTheGreenerLawn@gmail.com so I can assist ya better!
Do you know if this will make a difference in sandy soils?
It will, it will add organic matter to the soil, making it a higher cec, adding the ability to have water retention, and nutrient retention. It will take the sand and make it a sandy loam over time and use.
How long does it take for you to get an inch of water down? I have to run my sprinklers for 2.5 hours
Depends on a zone.
I have my front park strip that takes 25 min
Front yard 60 min
Back yard (those 3 zones combined)
Patio 40
Middle 45
Fence 40
Side yard - 25 min
So all different . I have to run my system 7 hours total to get it all one inch a week
how frequently do sypray the soil
I use fertilizer products that has humic in it, along with humic straight. So I try to get several apps a year. Ideally with humic 12 diygrasscare.com/collections/witerizer/products/0-0-1-humic-12-bio-stimulant-humic-acid-12-percent-n-ext-1 I have clients get 15oz per 1000 sqft (or more) a year in their lawns. More the better upfront tho, as this doesnât fade from your soil, itâs a product that last years (hundreds).
Add an inexpensive penetrant like Alypso from Precision Labs to help the humic work into heavy clay soils.
Awesome idea, I use baby shampoo every 3 weeks on my lawn.
So your saying when you bought the house no other soil was brought in and that red clay is now like top top pretty much? Not sure that's how it works.
We built. When they prep the lots they scrape the top soil from the fields as they can get good $ for the "top soil" as these were old farms.
Then as they dug for footing / foundation they unearthed clay 13' into the soil and that is what they back filled the lot with / graded with. lol it is how it works, with root cycling / amendments / promotion of microorganisms and earth worms this is how top soil or better soil is created. In nature this process takes years of root growth / microbes / earthworms
Doing their thing naturally. Adding humic acid speeds this process up. It's what farmers and golf courses have used for lots of years (somthing 1786, so a couple years any ways ) it's relatively new to homeowners 2010's ish.

First, how much humic acid did you use? Did you apply it every 2 weeks or every month? Also, did you use liquid aeration? If so, then how much. We don't know what you placed in your lawn.
Technically you could know everything, by just going over my videos, I do all apps on video. Best guesstimate Iâve put roughly 50 -90 oz of Humic acid (Humic concentrate from containing products) per 1000k on my lawn at this point in this video.
Air8 was used, once again, in videos... sorry. My lawn journal is my videos.
This was a random find as I was trenching to move sprinklers, this video was just put together because of my findings...... this was not planned out ahead of time.
Interesting, I have been using as well in my sandy lawn. Devils advocate here- how much of that change is from the natural process that happens in the root zone of any healthy lawn? Would be interested to see a long term control group a few feet away from the test area. This coming from a guy who has nothing more than a youtube certificate in lawn care :) Maybe I'll try that test out for my own curiousity
I get to dig quite regularly in other yards in my neighborhood, for sprinkler issues. All our houses were built 5 years ago, and no one comes close to my soil. When I dig in others yards the future, I have promised to take pictures, just havenât been out to any lately... but soon, I assure you.
Natural root cycling and soil amending is 2-5â in 5-10 years, this is a natural breakdown of organic material and amendment obtained by soil organisms. This is where I ask those who oppose, and in almost a year of this video being out, why no one has said any thing about a 3 year old lawn (put in June 2 2017 hydroseeded), having 8-14â of darker, richer soil.... when nature will take 5-10 years for 2-5â.... my channel is my diary of applications.
Well if your referring to my CZcams certificate for lawn care as, getting answers directly from manufacturers, distributors and owners of companies, with one one interactions and continual education from trainings attended and applying professionally is what you mean... well yea... I guess đ
thanks for the reply! Sounds like itâs working great! Would be neat to see the other lawns that are the same age. And about the CZcams certificate holder, I was referring to myself meaning I have no idea what Iâm talking about đ
Ohh lol... my bad... really on that lol.. I didnât know if you meant me or you, so my bad taking it as a shot....
Yea I want to get those yards around me so you guys can see what Iâm seeing in their lawns, my yard is pretty similar everywhere. So I have no valid test plots within my yard any more..
Itâs almost time to ask neighbors if I can randomly dig their yard.
I bet with your science background of building stuff on your yt channel, you could come up with a solid experiment. Maybe a clear planter box? So we could watch it in real time (it takes time to amend lol).
@@TheGreenerLawn the clear planter box is actually a great idea! Would sure beat digging holes in your yard! That would be interesting. I had a cart full of trays and cups last year growing grass to try to keep up with the dogs in my backyard. It was successful-ish but my friends made fun of me too much to do it again đ maybe Iâll try your idea and hide it. Anyway, thanks for the vids, keep em coming!
@@degrafex if you do, document it, Iâd love to follow along and give your content some views .. or feature it on my channel.
So you layed turf/or seed straight onto the clay and now you have 10" or there abouts of a nicer soil before you hit your red clay?
Yup, hydroseed, no prep dirt or fill. I didnât know any better in 2017....
In the 12 trenches I dug, it ranged between 6â and beyond 10â depending on area. I just shot that on the first hole I dug. But it was the same when I dug last year for a fertigation system I installed, but I just didnât drop a vid on it.
@@TheGreenerLawn go to know. Ive always liked how humic reads so started using 2 odd yrs back and im on heavy black clay.
Lol always worth a dig see, to see what you have done for yourself đ yours will be more soil texture, as it will be already dark and rich black. I would be interested in your results đ„
@@TheGreenerLawn Or, use a soil probe if you don't want to go trenching up your yard.
Methodical2 lol but trenches seem to be more dramatic.... đ
What kind of grass do you have?
Kentucky blue grass
So you have to apply it every yr or after a dew yrs when you see difference
You can stop when you see results. Itâs not fertilizer. Once added itâs there for 100âs of years. Itâs a carbon source extracted from lenordite shell. So once you have results your happy with you can stop, but I personally donât as the results are compounding though the soil, deeper and deeper.
â@TheGreenerLawn I moved in to a my home that was built in the 90s, 4yrs ago and I don't think the lawn has any top soil. Would you advice using humic will solve the compaction in the soil or i would to apply top soil? I live in south texas where the soil has a high ph and calcium
@@dannymartinez8522 đŻ humic acid will help a ton, then Iâd do a cup test of your sprinkler coverage to make sure your getting moisture in properly.
czcams.com/video/QEMNnQVS-Dc/video.html
Do you aerate before putting it in?
Vin K nope. Iâve never aerated my lawn with a manual areation machine. Wouldnât be a bad way to get it a little deeper quicker, though.
@@TheGreenerLawn wow and you got those results?! Amazing...thank you!
How often are you applying it?
Uhhh well, as often as you see a next fertilizer /bio stimulent video. All my Applications are on video... so not super often, or huge amounts. This year, Iâm going to pack it into my soil hard, but Iâd say this has had 50-100 oz of Humic, or Humic containing product put into it.
I didnât know I was going for this video, so I just saw it, and shot it... so there isnât an exact amount for up there... but itâs relatively low, for 2 years, I feel.
When would I add humic acid
A urine through the season is great. Is a product threat needs time to work, so asap is always perfect lol
Is humic acid and humic 12 the same thing?
For the most part. đđ»
Great job as usual Jeremy. đđŸđđŸđđŸ
Russell Martin
Thanks brother! Really appreciate it!
Nice!
Great, isnât it?
I think the root cycling effect is the main driver. But yeah humic acid should speed up the process.
It def root cycling plays a big part, worms play a part and the humic draws the worms in and makes the the grass healthier for root cycling... common knowledge root cycling for 5â of topsoil in our lawns usually takes 5-10 years.... this is 2 years post hydroseed on Utah clay. Something has expedited this process, as I have 8-14â depending on area and trench of amendments and I have documented processes (CZcams videos) of my applications. While I accept your root cycling, I donât believe this is it. Other neighbors I have helped with sprinklers in my neighbor hood are seeing 1-4â of soil change and most of it is on their sod dirt.
Good cultural practices, watering deep, mowing reg, mulching etc.
@@TheGreenerLawn That's an interesting data point between your neighbors' soil and yours, I think that would make an interesting video :-) I've started using Air8 & RGS, hard to tell the difference in the lawn because I've changed sooooo many bad habits, I think it's working though. Next season I'll be running those two plus the Humic12 (in 2 week alternative applications) to maximize the amount of Humic I'm putting down. One thing I am for sure of is that my bushes are doing better with the Air8 & RGS, my Indian Hawthorns had a fungal disease that I thought killed them, they are bouncing back extremely well with the new application.
Andy Nelson Next time I go a digging in a neighbor yard, Iâll gladly film! I had never thought about it cause I wasnât digging my yard, to have a base line.
Itâs crazy what good cultural practices will do for a lawn and feed the soil and plant correctly finishes off the process. Anything we do to make the soil better, only helps.
I donât get a lot of questioning comments like this, but a lot of đđ». Andy, thank you for expressing your feelings so I could have a chance to talk with you about the results AND the results you are seeing with your bushes! You will love your results you see from your bi-weekly applications. Soon feeding was hands down my favorite way of doing it results wise.
Hey Jeremy... when is the best time to apply humic acid. After it rains? When itâs dry? In the evening when itâs not so hot?? Or does it not matter.
Manny Motta it doesnât matter. The quicker we get the humic acid into the soil the quicker it begins working .... slowly đ€Ș. While it doesnât matter, I always water it in as soon as Iâm done with my apps, as it does nothing for my grass foliar. Whenever itâs most convenient for you. ... the worst place for it to be is in its container... it does nothing for the soil there đ€Ș
The Greener Lawn thanks. I toss some sea kelp in there too. I could walk around my yard all day long. Maybe Iâm getting old. Peaceful
Be careful with the kelp, it is a straight growth hormone, and it has been known to cause cell lysis (rupture of the cell walls, yes blow up đ). Good choice tho of additive đđ» yea there is a calming pice to our yards, that is for sure! Keep at it Manny!
1:29 who knew seed stock could grow so deep
..... seed stock (seed head) does not, as itâs the upwards growth. Roots that product future seed stalks... welp they are a different story đ
Humic, fulvic and Kelp in the correct ratios are magic. Howard Fertilizer has a product called 350 Turf that is as fine a product as you will find. One to two gallons per acre monthly. 3 to 6 ounces per thousand. Split is as you want.
In addition to the aforementioned adds, it has Fe, Cu, Zn, mb, B Mn and Mg. Calcium doesnât play well with others so add that in dilution for a full mix.
I sold this to golf course superintendents for years as well as a myriad of other products. This is great.
During my time there at Howard many superintendents were seeing, Cu especially, but also elevated Zn and Fe levels. So I developed a product that removed all of the Fe, Cu and Zn and maxed the Mn at 5% and Mg at 2%. The most that would fit in the jug. All the other adds stayed the same. Became one of the best selling products in the lineup. Called 39762. A customer helped with the formulation. He was a Mississippi State man. I told him he could name the product. But âTo Hell With Ole Missâ didnât pass. 39762 is the zip code for the department at Miss State where you send your money as I understand it. ;)
If you arenât adding the Kelp and Fulvic, please try them. And then some amino acids as complexing agents rather that standard chelates like EDTA or glucoheptenate. Magic. Soil/root/leaf health like you would not believe. Great to see you do an actual test of two seasons rather than two monthly apps and complaints of no results. Good work.

Results definitely speak for themselves
Yes they do! Thatâs why the đđ» have no comments. They just be jello over dirt! đ but their hearts will amend them selfs as the soil has and they will turn that thumb upside down đđ»đđ»
The Greener Lawn love this
How much is all that Humic costing ?
Umm, on the products over two years (that have been applied to this area... actually this area park strips, I got 1400 sqft of park strips, is like $25... maybe), it would of cost $120 in product cost for the main front yard. Iâm probably high, but Iâd rather over guess for the apps Ive put down for this area that has had Humic acid in it.
Ive had the exact same results.
đ this đŻ I love to hear repeated results.
First Aussie đ. Looking good Jeremy, great results ,a good long testing period. đđđ
Striperman, good late evening to you, overcast day here, supposed to rain but nothing yet at 12.43pm. How was your Thursday?đ
thanks sir! I felt the two years were really telling, even though that wasnât the intention! I was pleasantly surprised!
Time for me to put more humic down!
lol not a bad time at all!! đ„đ„đ„
Really cool. That's actually amazing in just 2 years.
yea! itâs crazy! with regular root cycling and Regular biology it would take 5 to 10 years to even start. So this is really jumpstarted it
Humic for the win!!
Ahhh heck ya!! đŻ
That's some good dirt!
+Tim Fischer sure is getting there for sure! Thanks Tim! How is the yard coming?
@@TheGreenerLawn you're welcome! Mine is doing good, I just have not done much to it due to not working for 2 months so it's not really in the budget this season. Hopefully that'll change, here's hoping the rest of the year gets better!
Tim Fischer have u done soil amendments? If so, they should help carry you!
@@TheGreenerLawn yeah but I'm due for more. I'm going to hit with the compaction cure and some humic this weekend. That will def help!
Does humic12 raise the pH of the soil?
how low is your ph and it would have to be applied super heavy to have a major effect on it.
@@TheGreenerLawn my soil test reading showed a pH of 6.9 which seems a bit high. My st Aug gets fungus very easily.
That ph isnât a good range for grass growth the added stress of out side the âperfect phâ range adds to increased risk of damage from fungus and pests. With that said have you done an elemental sulfur application? 5lbs per 1k twice a year will bring your ph down, slowly, but you will be trending towards the right way. Reason I bring up the 5lbs per application of sulfur, you have to apply a lot of product to get a ph change. Itâs not easily fluctuated. Iâd be shocked to see any significant change from a product like this... other sources like my high ph, is my secondary water, itâs 8.4-8.3 depending on year... that effects my ph every time I water... ugh..
@@TheGreenerLawn The only sulfur I'm getting right now is in the form of a magnesium sulfate with added sulfer - Pennington product. 1tbls per gallon per 1000 and spray.. Also making sure that all my fertilizer has some form of sulfur in it as well. I've used peat moss and also been considering using citric acid as I've heard it brings down the pH also. But my lab test also showed my lawn was low in sulfur. Will definitely be doing the 5 lbs / 1000 of sulfur 2x/year, and checking the pH of the sprinkler water. Thanks a ton for this information.
webeducation all great steps! Your welcome ! Iâd be interested in your water tests. Sometimes the water providers have the info if you reach out to them.
1k square meters? cubic meters? foot, kgs? what is 1k? 1k dollars? per 1k liters?, nice looking video but please help me out with that

Bro! Quit using a green screen, the backdrop is unreal! đđ€Ł great results though!
Mountains are a fun backdrop! Honestly until I started making vids, I forgot they were there... growing up here.
Yup #thatsoiltho đ„
But youâre still watering like you would be without Humic?
Yea... humic amends the soil, unlocks nutients, allows water to pass though the spoil profile, helps roots to go deeper, changes the uptake of nutrients, helps the health of the soil organisms which inherently makes the grass healthier.
So, well yea watering needs stay the same..... this doesnât change water requirements.
Dude, I had the same results.
