    Thank you for taking the time reds, do you think granules will break down in a raised bed mate? Or better to stick with powder? I'm going to try a dripper system to keep the soil moist this time round rather than banana fingered watering like my last attempt

    I am sure Vitalink does both Humic and Fulvic acids.

    My bottle of Black Magic has both, but the product has been discontinued in the UK. It's made by Scotts, the people behind Miracle Grow, so they might have some in their products at a more budget sensible price.

    If you're trying to grow in an active, living soil, then yes humic acid is necessary. It not only helps keep the nutrients in your amendments plant available, but also helps to neutralise any chloramines in your soil. You would also benefit from a beneficial bacteria/ mycorrhizae supplement, my go to is the nutrient company Mycorrmaxx, which has humic acid in already and is really quite cheap in comparison to other products.

    @supreemweeder
    No worries mate, the granules will just take longer to get broken down in the soil so a mixture of sizes would be great
    There's a company calke viresco I use there humic and its reasonably priced for the amount you use
    Bio char is something else you should think about the mycho stuff shoild be used as standard by anyone by now surly
    On another note I do buy the fulvic from bio-ag once a year for all foliar feeds
    And I would try and avoid the ones derived from leanordite

    I use humic & pulvic acid, with organic N fertilizer and another bottle of some kelp in it, and aminos and more stuff... since i started combine all 3 of those, bi-monthly, my garden thrives like never before. they are all liquid forms and absorbed almost immediately by the plants, i can see the reaction within 24-48 hours on my Mint and Basil. I chop 70% of my basil bi-monthly, its about 100 grams every harvest, from a normal window planter... thats kinda lots of basil and yes im proud of it LOL
