How does it work?
Foliar application of Liquid Humus coats the leaves with a mix of beneficial microbes and humic compounds that stimulate greater photosynthesis. This increases the production of sugars and root exudates which feed the beneficial microbes and mycorrhizae in the soil which in turn extract nutrients from the soil and supply them to the plant. This symbiotic relationship gives the plant access to more micronutrients that are crucial to strong cell development and plant health, producing fuller and more vibrant plants.
The complex carbon structure in Liquid Humus chelates valuable nutrients with carbon, essentially creating a magnetic nutrient bond. This carbon-nutrient bond keeps the nutrients available for the plant roots to uptake as needed. Blending Liquid Humus with liquid fertilizers prior to application will amplify the effect of the fertilizer in speed of response and efficacy, due to the chelating properties of the humus bond. Liquid Humus also buffers the nutrients to ensure balanced nutrient uptake which is crucial for healthy plant development, optimum growth, and ultimate yield potential.
Liquid Humus is loaded with a diverse population of beneficial microbes. The cold-water aerobic extraction process of making Aeromaster Liquid Humus ensures a more viable and diverse agglomeration of beneficial microorganisms will be available when applied to the plant and soil.
Liquid humus serves as a natural soil conditioner by breaking apart and loosening compacted soils. The magnetic impact of the humus works to break apart compacted clay particles. This creates a more porous soil structure, allowing more air spaces, and better moisture management. These conditions promote better root growth and support the beneficial microbial and mycorrhizae colonies that form symbiotic relationships with plant roots.
Where can I use it?
Liquid Humus
compliments
every
nutrient program!
Broad-Acre & Row Crop
At Planting: Apply directly onto the seed, or along side the row blended with your current fertilizer or liquid nutrient program. Applying Liquid Humus to the seed encourages faster germination and improved plant stand and cover.
Foliar Application: Apply around 21 days after emergence and at critical growth points to stimulate better root development and foliage growth.
Irrigation Injection: Regular application of Liquid Humus during irrigation has been shown to reduce soil compaction in addition to the benefits of foliar applications.
Livestock & Horse Pastures
Apply Liquid Humus in early spring during the green-up stage and at monthly intervals or after grazing. Liquid Humus encourages faster regrowth, increases nutrient density, improves the palatability of all plants (even the weeds), and has been shown to generate improvements in overall animal health.
Vegetable Gardening & Greenhouses
Seeds treated with Liquid Humus typically experience faster germination and more consistent growth. Weekly foliar applications, thoroughly coating the leaves with a fine spray, will encourage plant resilience and reduce the need for pesticides or fungicide.
Alfalfa & Hay Fields
Apply Liquid Humus in early spring during the green-up stage. Reapply within 1 week of each cutting to encourage a faster rebound, higher plant nutrient density and increased tonnage.
Lawns & Turf
Regular applications of Liquid Humus at a rate of 20-30 gallons per acre applied monthly (spring through fall) will reduce the need for chemical fertilizers while significantly reducing water consumption, and improving the root structure and resilience of your sod.
Produce Growers
Reduce input costs and simplify your nutrient program by putting the plant in charge - helping it to interact with the soil to access the perfect nutrient balance at optimal times. As an added benefit, your customers will absolutely love the improved flavor of your produce!
Crop Residue
Liquid Humus supplies the microbiology to speed up the breakdown of plant debris. As plants decompose and the cells break open, the carbon inside becomes volatile and blows away. Liquid Humus captures more of the volatile carbon and nutrients, preserving it in your soil to essentially supply free fertilizer for next year's crop!
Application
General Application Instructions
Apply Liquid Humus at a rate of 10 gallons per acre as a foliar spray. Liquid Humus may be blended with your fertilizer program, or with organic sources such as molasses, emulsified fish, or other ingredients. Fertilizer rates should be reduced by 25 - 50%. For best coverage, a 20 gallon per acre rate total solution should be applied. Dilute with water as needed. Liquid Humus will not burn your plants and cannot be over-applied.
Sprayer Configuration
Liquid Humus should be filtered through a 50-mesh or larger tank screen, be sure to remove nozzle screens. Flood-Jet spray nozzles or circular orifice nozzles are a preferable means of application. Backpack sprayers, garden sprayers, and other tools may be used, but be sure to remove nozzle screens prior to application.
Activator Mixing Instructions
Mix ACS microbial activator with Liquid Humus into your sprayer or a separate mixing tank. Agitate thoroughly for a minimum of 5-10 minutes until all ingredients are well mixed. Continue agitating mixture during application. Apply within 12 hours for optimum results.
DO NOT PUT ACTIVATOR OR FERTILIZER INTO A LIQUID HUMUS STORAGE TANK
This will awaken the microbes in the Liquid Humus. Awakened microbes may die off and the solution may go anaerobic if not applied to the field within 12-24 hours.
