Brief trial with PowHumus in citrus

Introduction

There are several things that set PowHumus apart from other humic acid products in the market: the Leonardite deposit from which it is extracted in Grevenbroich, Germany, is among the oldest and purest in the world; the patented manufacturing process ensures the highest concentration of active materials in the final product; and the in the end molecule of the product, Potassium atoms have substituted Hydrogen, so it does not fix Hydrogen in the soil, which could liberate Sodium that may be trapped in clay soils. 

But of course, more important than its characteristics, is the unique effect that PowHumus has as a soil amendment and as a biostimulant. An example of this effect is the result of brief trial performed by our partners in Glades Crop Care:
