What is Humate
Humus - is the basis of fertile soil. The more of it in the ground, the better. It stains the soil a dark color (in the black soil humus much, but a little sand).
Humus allows plants to absorb those nutrients that are in the earth. When we make fertilizer, you do not think that, in fact, these nutrients already in the soil, only culture can not digest them properly. Any fertilizer - is easily digestible form of power. And our goal is to increase the digestibility of the soil by the plant roots. Typically, humus is a reprocessing of organic residues due to living beings as worms, bacteria and insects.
Humus contains humic acid, which are dissolved minerals and translate them into available form (hilaty) for plants.
Scientists have deduced the humic acids somehow naturally in the form of salts (e.g., potassium humate, sodium humate).
