I give the Humic acid with the sprinkler-system, all the soil gets it, the leafs do not come in contact with it, my sprinkler-system is about 40 cm above the ground.

I realize maybe I am giving Humic Acid much to much. Can it harm the soil?

Many people here use Humic Acid once a week, 500 ml for one hectare. I heard it helps the plant to take the nutritients and creates a better soil.I do not have bad experince with it.

The Humic acid also comprises organic material, suppose bananas like this.

I give this one
