There is a lot of snake oil when it comes to humates in general being
raw,
dry extracts and/or liquid extracts.
I am doing a complete analysis of most materials available in the USA
market and will report later on.
Humisolve - USA for instance I not a honest producy since it declares a
% that is not present in the final product. They declare 74% but it has
only
50% total humic + fulvic acids.

There are various soluble humic acid products such as the ones from
Humicsolve and TeraVita. I wonder if the drying process will reduce the
effectiveness of the humic acid.

Liquid humic acid will work better. I like the Hydrahume AN from
Helena, the Eco-Nutrient kelp and humic acid, or the Horizon Ag humic
acid. In Australia, the Nutri-tech dry form is soluble, so it works
well added to tea.

Usually dry formulations take too loong for the orgnaisms to solubilize
in the tea. It doesn't give you growth in the tea.

There may be dried versions of the Nutra-Tech humic acid that I don't
know about in the US, so if someone finds one, let me know!
