Soil Amendments

Naturally Improve Soil 
 
SoilBiotics Soil Amendments use naturally occurring humic matter formed through the breakdown of plant and animal matter over millions of years. One of the most productive inputs available to growers, humates bond with nutrients in the soil to enhance nutrient absorption by the plant. In addition, they increase the permeability of plant cells, improving nutrient efficiency and decreasing stress on plants throughout the growing season. The overall effect is biologically enhanced soils and improved yields.
 
From seed preparation to post-harvest soil maintenance, SoilBiotics products work together to provide a continuous and highly beneficial input program that will meet and surpass your agricultural needs. Our high-quality inputs lay the foundation for crop success, encouraging plants to reach their highest potential.

Soil Boost

Conventional and Organic Use
SoilBiotics Soil Boost is an organic dry, granular Humic product that is used to help improve both the physical and biological makeup of soil. It is broadcast applied either pre-plant or post-harvest as a part of a comprehensive soil improvement and maintenance program. This product may be blended with most quality dry fertilizers, and may be used in conventional and organic programs. A physical compatibility test is recommended.
 
Features:
  • Helps the soil loosen and crumble, increasing aeration of soil as well as soil workability
  • Prevents soil cracking, and reduces surface water runoff and soil erosion
  • Increases water holding capacity of soil and helps resist drought
  • Increases both organic and mineral substances essential to plant growth
  • Allows the soil to retain water soluble inorganic fertilizers in the root zones and reduces leaching
  • Has the ability to increase organic matter and CEC in the soil
  • Increases buffering properties of the soil and can be applied to most soils
 
Benefits:
  • Improves the biological structure of the soil by helping to neutralize both acid and alkaline soils which regulate the pH value of the soil
  • Improves and optimizes the uptake of nitrogen and other nutrients and water by plants
  • Promotes the conversion of nutrient elements (N, P, K, and trace elements) into forms available to plants
  • May enhance micronutrient uptake because of the chelating effect

PH K

Conventional and Organic Use
SoilBiotics PH K is a dry granular product containing a proprietary carrier blended with humates, providing a quicker release of these organic acids. It is used in both pre-plant and post-emergence applications.  PH K helps the soil loosen and crumble, increases aeration and workability of soil, and may enhance micronutrient uptake because of the chelating effect improving and replenishing depleted soils. This product may be blended with most quality dry fertilizers, and may be used in conventional and organic programs. A physical compatibility test is recommended.This product may be broadcast applied, in-furrow, or banded depending on timing.
 
Features:
  • Comes in three (3) different SGN sizes: 100, 150 and 200
  • Self-incorporates into soils with irrigation or rainfall
 
Benefits:
  • Enhances the uptake of nitrogen by plants, and promotes the conversion of nutrient elements (N, P, K, and trace elements) into forms available to plants
  • Increases utilization of both organic and mineral substances essential to plant growth
