Hi John. I've been using your products for two years. My soil has changed a lot...it's squishy now...even in the heat of the summer. Another observation, this year, my lawn woke up at least 2 weeks before anyone else. I'm pretty certain I am the only person who has mowed in my county in NW Ohio...and I've mowed twice and layed down some beautiful stripes the last time.

Awesome Nate! You won’t be disappointed!

[@MagnumVideos]

I just spread a bag of Humic DG from The Anderson's (because I don't like liquid when it's so windy). My primary goal is to loosen the compacted clay from new construction. My front yard looks absolutely fantastic now since I dug up a few spots that were hiding some construction gravel and not letting the roots get down or absorbing the heat this summer. But my back yard has a few spots that are brown, thin, weak, and look really bad because of the compacted soil. I can't even get a pitchfork to penetrate more than an inch. So, I'm hoping this Humic treatment will help. I'm also planning of spreading a couple of bags of compost over those areas as well in hopes the rain will push some OM lower into the soil. Probably wishful thinking, but I'm not sure what else to do. I did aerate recently, but the ground is still like concrete in those spots. That's my story. I did want to add that you are obviously one super sharp dude and I really enjoy your videos. Very informative. Thanks for sharing. Would appreciate any thoughts you might have on my situation.

Hi John, getting ready to send in my soil tests to spectrum analytic for analysis. My Texas black clay yard really needs work and it shows as my yard seem to regress. I've decided to concentrate on not pushing Nitrogen above 1/2 lb or less per 1,000 and focus on building up my soil to break up this clay and not compete with top growth. Besides Humic12, Air-8, RGS what else should I be using on a regular basis and is it ever possible to use too much Humic Acid? Thanks !!!

[@funkyduckproductions.8844]

Hi. How, often would you advise applying Humic Acid to a lawn that sits on very clay heavy soil? Thanks

[@johnfetter3252]

Great video John. My lawn has improved year over year, but I still have some weak spots. Is it ok to "Spray it Black?", or, in other words, put a large volume of Humid 12 on the weak spots? Specifically, still dilute at the 7:1 ratio of water to Humic 12, but put a higher volume on the weak or bare areas? I have dug these areas up, and can't find any construction debris underneath. Just poor Texas clay soil.

[@Lawncology]

Yes, you can paint it black for sure

Did it improve any, spraying black?

[@johnfetter3252]

@John Kay somewhat. I use Greene County Fertilizer products a lot. Like 11 applications a year. Compaction Cure Combo in the spring and fall with pre emergents, and DeThatch in the summer. I have been able to drop my synthetic Fertilizer input by half.

[@Bloher100]

Does humic acid stay or have a residual that stays in soil, or does it leach out (for lack of a better term) over time in clay type soil?

[@Lawncology]

The acid does have a half life, since it’s been flushed and detached from what kept it stable, it will eventually move through the soil. Any carbon that is in the source material will stay behind for further soil life to develop within.

[@BamaWells1]

Ok, I am new here on your channel but I have the Bio-Stimulate package and another build your 4 gallon package on its way now. I am just learning as much as I can here.

Now I am trying to get my zoysia to come back as quick as I can. I am hoping that the N-Ext fertilizer will help.

Thank you, had flash backs of chemistry in college, but I think I finally get how Humic Acid plays a part in soil chemistry and the benefits. How often should your product be applied?

[@bobzilla6618]

From what I have seen, you can apply it as frequently as you want to. It won't have any adverse effects like adding too much N P or K and burn the lawn. When I have humic acid, I like to apply it at least once a month or as much as my budget allows. Hope this helps 👍

[@nealschroeder6336]

I really started to use Humic two years about with the Humic12 product (4 times a yra). I then increased that last year. I would use a granular Humic product in between my Humic12 applications. This leads me to my question, and it comes down to what I noticed. When I applied Humic every 4 weeks (alternating Granular and Liquid), the soil seemed to retrain water better. Is this because of the better soil structure, or does Humic provide some water retention benefits to clay soils? It seemed to soften my clay soil a bit. I struggled last spring due to cold weather and a late June start as I am in Colorado, and getting water to penetrate my ground was limited. The summer was awful for water retention, but by late summer and on into fall the Humic really seemed to take hold and assist my fertilizer and build that soil structure up. I did do a mechanical soil aeration in September, but I still feel it was the Humic that helped the soil and allowed more water to penetrate. I of course used air8, but it never had the same effects right away as just a good old Humic application. Maybe, the humic was releasing the air8 and allowing it to do its thing....but I will do both again this year and look forward to continued success in getting my soil right.

[@icaughtyoubasstard4877]

Adding both granular and liquid will enrich your soil as you notice by adding More then the basic amount from liquid. The more you add of Humic the better esp if you use both kinds granular and liquids. Keep adding each year and it will hold in more water in the soil. This will produce a thicker and greener lawn every year! If you read my post on here it will explain more about it from my opinion and results.

[@BenNawrath]

Great video! Recently found your channel, and I appreciate the in depth discussion, big words and all. I still find myself looking for simple answers though (it’s been 25 years since I took chemistry). Do you prefer liquid over granular?

[@Lawncology]

two different things, think of char as a sponge, super porous, super electric.It can capture nutrients in the soil solution and keep them from washing with water, as well as bring some aeration to the soil. Anything thing that was in the source material will have been burned out to leave only carbon. humic acid and bio char can compliment each other very well.

[@chrisyoung8062]

so the question in my mind is, how much of these substances are needed to create real results? For example if a fertilizer says it contains 3% humic acid is that enough to really do anything. Anderson's Humic DG says it is 70% humic acid but if you put down 3lbs/1000sqft, are you really doing much to change anything? BTW I'm asking because I really don't know.

It takes a lot. It’s an over time change.

I purchased a liquid humic acid product and discovered it had a strong rotten egg smell. It was manufactured in Florida. A brand spokesperson attributed the smell to the sulfur content of the water they use. Nevertheless, I decided not to apply it. Has anyone else encountered this?

“Add calcium to flush salts from the soil.” So I’ve heard “paint it black” to treat yellow spots from from dog urine. What is the specific mix to use? I have all of your products.
