Why Soil Science Products?

Soil Science Products maintain an ideal Carbon/Nitrogen balance

Most traditional chemical fertilizers lack carbon, while containing higher levels of nitrogen than plants can process at application time, which leads to waste. Also, the carbon in animal-based products is not only accompanied by too many salts and heavy metals, it is not in the form of carbon chain sugars, which is needed for maximum benefit. Soil Science Products introduce a high-energy, carbon food source into plants, turf and soil that balances nitrogen levels, for efficient uptake of already-present nitrogen.

Soil Science Products are composed of thoroughly composed matter.

Soil Science Products provides a natural mixture only found in completely decomposed, ancient plant life. While other products sources are usually not entirely broken down, rendering them largely ineffective, Soil Science Products contain only the purest plant matter such as humus, nutrients and minerals. Our competitors offer fertilizers high in animal protein, or sometimes no protein at all, which may take years to break down; Soil Science Products are rich in everything you need, ready to go now.

Soil Science Products offer high concentration of pure humates

Many competitors products don't contain humates, and nowhere will you find a purer source of high-grade humates than in Soil Science Products. We use highly effective extraction methods to go after only the most mature and beneficial humates.

Soil Science Products work without high levels of salts.

Healthy microorganisms are essential to plant growth. Unlike many of our competitors products, such as traditional chemical and manure-based fertilizers, Soil Science Products leaves out the high levels of salts and heavy metals. As a result, the microorganism population in the soil is allowed to thrive while effectively processing the soil to make nutrients more available to root systems. The benefit to you? Plants that are more stress-tolerant, respond to significantly lower levels of N-P-K fertilizers, and therefore cost much less to maintain.

Soil Science Products provide easier uptake with fulvic acid.

In contrast to traditional fertilizers, which contain EDTA or citric acids or no chelating agents at all, Soil Science Products are rich in fulvic acid. This allows plants to easily assimilate those nutrients that are being introduced, as well as those already in the soil. The energy saved in this process is then redirected to enhanced growth, and production of proteins and carbohydrates.

What are the benefits?

Benefits include improved soil structure, retention of nutrients, cycling of nutrients into plant available forms, and reduced plant stress. Soil Science Products fertilizer also breaks down compacted soils with repeated use, letting roots grow into the soil more easily, allowing them to find more nutrients, and letting air into the soil so conditions are not right for diseases to grow, or for toxic metabolites of anaerobic organisms to build up. All plants will gain health and vitality with continued use. Soil Science Products fertilizer helps to put back into the soil, the microbiology  that we have removed because of our over-development and chemical application practices. This biology has co-evolved with plants for billions of years and is critical for plants to function within their environment.

Why are repeated application important?

Environmental conditions, although they vary, commonly include numerous negative impacts that kill the microbial populations on an ongoing basis. This includes air pollution, dust, prior pesticide and herbicide use, drift and over spray, synthetic fertilizers, salinization, water pollution, chlorine, current building and agricultural practices that ignore soil life, over or under watering, compacted soils, unusual freeze, drought, flood, etc. Repeated applications re-establish the beneficial microbes that suffer or can be killed under the above abuses.

How long do microbes live in the soil?

Colonies of beneficial microorganisms continue to live in soil as long as they are provided good conditions and organic food sources. Stressful conditions in the soil will make microbes go-to-sleep and become inactive, but not dead. These organisms may wake-up again after very long periods of time. Of course, contaminants such as pesticides, herbicides, and air pollutants impact microbe lifespan. Chemicals from urban garden applications are easily carried airborne many miles from their original site. You are impacted by what your neighbors and neighborhood communities do. Be assured that if your neighbor treats his landscape with chemicals, your landscape is receiving residues from these applications. In which case, repeated applications, as mentioned above, are critical.
