Product Description

Humic Acid 80% (Humate) Powder – 99% Soluble

Powerful Organic Soil Detox & Nutrient Booster for All Growing Conditions
If your soil is tired, depleted, or struggling to retain nutrients, this is your natural fix. Plant Doctor’s Humic Acid 80% Powder is a 99% water-soluble humate made from premium Leonardite, one of the richest known sources of humic acids. It works below the surface to unlock nutrients, detox harmful residues, and restore soil health by feeding beneficial microbes and improving structure. Whether you're growing lush lawns, thriving veggie patches, or managing broadacre farmland, this humic acid powder will rebuild fertility, balance pH, and enhance fertiliser performance, naturally.

Why Choose Humic Acid 80% Powder?

  • Improves nutrient uptake by unlocking locked-up minerals
  • Detoxifies soil from chemical residues and heavy metals
  • Boosts microbial activity for long-term soil health
  • Enhances water retention and root development
  • Buffers soil pH to reduce nutrient stress
  • Binds excess salts to protect sensitive roots
  • 100% organic and highly concentrated
  • Cost-effective and long-lasting- small amounts go a long way

 

Who It's For & How to Use It

Lawns (Buffalo, Couch, Kikuyu & More)

  • Breaks up compacted or dead soils to allow deeper root penetration
  • Boosts green-up when combined with nitrogen-based lawn fertilisers
  • Use after topdressing or aeration to enhance soil contact
  • Apply dry as a dusting, or dissolve for a soil drench

Gardens (Veggies, Flowers, Trees, Pots)

  • Detoxifies raised beds and urban soils with past chemical exposure
  • Great for recharging tired potting mix or sandy soils
  • Helps keep moisture in the root zone during dry periods
  • Mix into compost teas or worm juice for biological activation

Farms & Larger Properties

  • Ideal for pre-planting, side-dressing, or irrigation systems
  • Enhances fertiliser uptake, particularly phosphorus and trace minerals
  • Binds and reduces salt and chemical residues from past treatments
  • Compatible with most crop inputs, including fertilisers, pesticides, and fungicides

Use Humic Acid Powder when organic carbon is low, nutrients are locked up, or you need to improve water retention, especially during high-demand growth stages or when enhancing fertiliser and biological input performance, ideal for those transitioning to organic or regenerative soil programs.

The Science Behind Humic Acid Powder

This humate powder is extracted from Leonardite, a natural deposit formed over millions of years, far more concentrated and stable than peat-based sources. Rich in short- and medium-chain humic acids, it acts as a bio-stimulant, soil detoxifier, and chelator.

  • Nutrient Chelation – Unlocks bound-up nutrients like phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium
  • Soil Detox – Binds herbicide/pesticide residues, heavy metals, and excess salts
  • Microbial Support – Provides carbon and substrate for beneficial bacteria and fungi
  • Water Retention – Improves soil porosity and reduces evaporation
  • pH Buffering – Helps stabilise soil pH in both acidic and alkaline soils
  • Structure Repair – Encourages soil crumb formation and reduces compaction

Popular Questions

Is the Humic Acid 80% Powder fully soluble in water?

Yes, it is 100% water-soluble, but it may require a bit of effort to fully dissolve. We recommend pre-mixing the powder in a small jar or mug with around 100–150ml of water. Stir thoroughly, then pour into your watering can or sprayer. Repeat until fully dissolved.

What is Humic Acid Powder used for in gardening and farming?

It improves soil structure, boosts nutrient uptake, and stimulates microbial activity. It’s ideal for enriching tired soils in lawns, gardens, farms, and even hydroponics systems.

Can I use this product in my organic garden?

Yes. It is derived from natural sources and suitable for organic gardening practices.

How often should I apply Humic Acid Powder?

Application frequency depends on soil condition, but every 2–4 weeks during active growth is a common guideline.

Can I combine Humic Acid Powder with other fertilisers?

Yes, humic acid enhances fertiliser efficiency and nutrient uptake. A jar test is always recommended before mixing with other products.

Is it safe for all plant types?

Absolutely. It's suitable for lawns, vegetables, flowers, trees, and even indoor plants.

What’s the difference between Humic Acid and Fulvic Acid?

Humic Acid works in the soil to improve structure and nutrient holding. Fulvic Acid is smaller in molecular size and aids in nutrient delivery within plants.

Can I use Humic Acid Powder in hydroponic systems?

Yes, if fully dissolved. It can improve nutrient chelation in hydroponics or aquaponics systems but ensure your emitters are compatible.

How should I store Humic Acid Powder?

Store in a cool, dry place out of sunlight. Reseal tightly to prevent clumping from moisture exposure.

The Black Stallion

By: Michael on 2 January 2019
This stuff is great. As I use a backpack sprayer to apply I mix amount I need in a bucket with a few liters of water, mix with a stick and then while preparing my other plantdoc products it dissolves completely. This has brought great balance and health to the soil. Seen an increase in worms which is great. Grass seems to be less brown and less sunburn spots in the hot days.

Humic acid

By: Corbin on 20 October 2018
Been using this on my lawn for a few months and it has helped the soil microbiology. I have a premdominate sand based and now I get small mushrooms which indicates excellent health. Mixing with a stirer/while mixing is key as it can clump otherwise

Great product

By: Ashley on 11 October 2018
Been using this product for over 3 months on lawn and vegetables. So far results seem great. Only negative would be that it is difficult to mix up. Not that soluble.

Only have great things to say about Plant Doctor. Organic products and a competitive price, fast shipping and easy to contact with questions. Have had great results with the special mix for lawns, and my plants (indoor and outdoor) love the seaweed secrets. I am excited to test out some of the animal products soon!
