From humic and fulvic acids to kelp and compost, these natural tools can make a measurable difference in plant performance. 🧪 What Are Biological Soil Amendments? Biological soil amendments are natural products that enhance soil biology, boost nutrient uptake, and support early plant growth. Here's a breakdown of the key amendments Ryan uses: 1. Humic & Fulvic Acids Humic acid improves nutrient uptake, stabilizes nitrogen, and feeds soil microbes. Often applied in-furrow or mixed with nitrogen sources to reduce salt stress and retain moisture. Fulvic acid, being a smaller molecule, pulls nutrients directly into plant roots. Both are carbon sources that enhance soil function and are safe for most starter fertilizers (jar test first!). 🧠 Quick Tip: Use humic on sandy soils for moisture retention. Fulvic works across all soil types. 2. Kelp (Seaweed Extract) Packed with micros and natural growth hormones like cytokinins and gibberellins. Promotes early root stimulation and soil conditioning. Great for seed treatment or in-furrow use — Ryan applies it on all his row crops. 🌱 Why it works: Kelp triggers early growth and helps roots "explode" with development. 3. Compost (Dry or Liquid) Compost adds biology and carbon to the soil. Can be applied dry (in bulk) or as a liquid extract that looks like “muddy tea water.” Supports microbial life and improves soil structure. 🧪 Sources include: Traditional windrows Worm bins Johnson-Su bioreactors 🎯 Choosing the Right Product Different soils need different amendments: Soil Type Best Fit Sandy, light Humic acid for carbon & moisture Any soil Fulvic acid for nutrient efficiency All row crops Kelp for hormone-driven root growth ✅ Do your research: Always check product quality, intended use, and mix compatibility. 📍 Final Thoughts Adding biologicals to your seed, in-furrow applications, or directly to the soil can significantly impact root health, plant vigor, and nutrient availability. Whether you're farming in high CEC, sandy soils, or no-till systems, there's a fit for everyone. 📲 Stay Connected Watch the full series on YouTube or follow Singular Agronomics across TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram for more field-proven agronomic tips. 👉 Healthy roots = thriving crops.
