The natural composition of HUMUSON allows it to act through the following mechanisms: it’s adaptogenic, it’s chelating, it increases the absorption and bioavailability of phytonutrients, and it enhances symbiosis with the natural microorganisms in the soil.

Absorption and Chelation

HUMUSON contains strong and absorbent humified carbon, which keeps nutrients in the topsoil, allowing plants to utilize these nutrients more effectively. Large molecules of humic acids bind heavy metals and radionuclides in the topsoil, removing them from active circulation and preventing them from entering plant tissue. Small molecules of humic acids chelate nutritional elements and increase their bioavailability.

Symbiosis

HUMUSON includes water-soluble carbon, amino acids, and vitamins that facilitate the development and growth of soil macro and microorganisms, such as PGB group bacteria and beneficial soil fungi. This supports processes like nitrogen fixation, cellulose fermentation, and the activity of butyrate-producing bacteria, ammonifiers, and other microorganisms vital to plant nutrition and growth.

Humin provides a substrate for the development of soil bacteria and microorganisms, even in soils with low organic content. The activation of soil macro and microorganisms accelerates the cycling of elements in the soil, increasing the diversity and bioavailability of plant nutrients. In combination with improvements in the plant’s transport system, this greatly aids the natural symbiotic relationship between soil microorganisms and the plant.

Adaptogenic

HUMUSON contains a high concentration of humates, including humin, humic acids, and fulvic acid. Their mechanism of action stimulates all growth processes in plants, from seed germination and root formation to the entire growth and development cycle. Humates alter cell membrane permeability, boost fermentation activity, increase chlorophyll content, enhance photosynthesis productivity, and stimulate tissue respiration and protein synthesis.

Humates react and bind with various ecotoxicants that enter the soil through dust, ashes, rain, and mineral fertilizers. This results in the irreversible binding of heavy metals and radionuclides into insoluble, complex compounds, removing them from soil element circulation and preventing these toxins from entering the food chain. Additionally, the activity of soil microflora is enhanced by humates, which also helps to degrade toxic organic compounds. Organic eco-toxins like pesticides, hydrocarbons, phenols, and aldehydes are effectively absorbed by humates, reducing their toxicity to both plants and humans.

The combination of these benefits restores the natural adaptogenic properties of plants, helping them adapt to unfavorable climate conditions.
