Here’s a clear, practical guide on how to use potassium humate (for agriculture/soil improvement, the most common use). I’ll keep it simple and usable.


1. Application Methods

  • Soil application (most common)Mix with fertilizer, compost, or sand, then spread evenly and water thoroughly.
  • Drip irrigation / FertigationDissolve in water first, then apply through irrigation systems.
  • Foliar sprayUse low-concentration solution and spray on leaves in early morning or late afternoon.
  • Seed soaking / Root dipping
  • Promote germination and root growth.


2. Recommended Dosages (typical)

For soil application (per mu / 667m²)

  • Powder / Flake: 5–10 kg per mu
  • Crystal / soluble grade: 1–3 kg per mu


For drip irrigation

  • 0.5–1 kg per mu, dissolved in water

For foliar spray

  • Concentration: 1:1000 to 1:1500(1 gram potassium humate per 1–1.5 liters water)


For seed soaking

  • Concentration: 0.1%–0.2%Soak 6–12 hours, then dry before sowing.



3. Best Application Times
  • Before planting / sowing
  • During seedling stage
  • During root development
  • Before flowering / fruiting


4. Key Tips for Better Effect
  • Dissolve completely before irrigation/foliar spray.
  • Use with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers to increase absorption.
  • Avoid mixing with strongly alkaline fertilizers in high concentrations.
  • Apply when soil is moist or water after application.
  • Store in a dry, cool place.


5. Main Benefits
  • Improve soil structure
  • Increase nutrient absorption
  • Stimulate root growth
  • Enhance drought and stress resistance
  • Boost yield and quality
