Hydra Hume Soil Amendment increases fertilizer efficiency and improves soil biology. Hydra-Hume is a unique group of organic acids that increases fertilizer efficiency and helps improve soil biology for extended agronomic benefits. These two important features allow you to extract more short and long-term value from your fertilizing program. Studies have shown that Hydra-Hume not only increases the uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium by plants, it also helps retain those nutrients in the soil, resulting in greater nitrogen retention and less leaching. In addition to greater nutrient uptake and nitrate nitrogen retention in the soil, Hydra-Hume works chemically, biologically, and physically to provide many other benefits that improve soil, turf, and plants.
If you want the healthiest soil in the neighborhood put Hydra Hume on your lawn about 3 times during the growing season. Six ounces will treat 1000 square feet, so it is very economical to use. You'll see visible results in a few weeks.

How Hydra-Hume Works Chemically
Retains water-soluble inorganic fertilizers in the root zone where they are released to plants
Converts several elements into “plant-available” forms
Increases cation exchange capacity (CeC)
Improves buffering properties of soil
Chelates metal ions in alkaline conditions
Raises nitrogen profile in soil
How Hydra-Hume Works Biologically:
Increases root growth and development, thereby increasing dry matter content
Improves seedling growth at emergence
Increases permeability of plant membranes
Increases plant respiration
Stimulates growth of beneficial soil microorganisms
Aids photosynthesis
Acts as an organic catalyst
Stimulates plant enzyme activity
How Hydra-Hume Works Physically
Increases the water-holding capacity of soil
Increases soil aeration
Improves soil friability (ability to crumble) for less root resistance
