What is fulvic acid?

Answer:

Fulvic acid is derived from several sources, one of the best being leonardite. Leonardite is a mined mineral that contains humic/fulvic substances and is a naturally occurring source of carbon plus trace minerals. Using a specific manufacturing process, you can separate the fulvic substances from the leonardite creating fulvic acid, ours being called Integrate. Fulvic acid is traditionally designed to be foliar applied which means it is sprayed onto the leaves of the plant instead of the soil. The molecular structure of fulvic acid has an ability to latch itself onto biologicals and nutrients at a cellular level regardless of it having a positive or negative charge. Plants are constantly consuming carbon and when the plant recognizes free available carbon (fulvic acid) sprayed on its leaves, it will instantly absorb it. Which in turn transports whatever the fulvic acid has attached itself to (i.e.: foliar fertilizer/contact herbicide) into the plant. Fulvic acid can be used in place of traditional oils, stickers, or spreaders which are designed to stick the plant long enough for absorption, whereas fulvic acid is consumed by the plant within seconds. Blend fulvic acid with any contact herbicide or foliar fertilizer/nutrient that you wish to foliar apply to the plant to maximize availability.
