BioAg Ful-Humix Liquid Organic Humic Acid Soil Conditioner (1 Gallon) (FH-L-9999)

I see a lot of people are leaving negative reviews that they are not happy because now the products are made from leonardite instead of from Cretaceous Period fresh water humic substances but that's incorrect because I had the same exact problem when I noticed that BioAg updated their labels and all of the labels now say that it's made from leonardite. This was the reason I was buying Ful-Power, Ful-Humix, and TM-7 because Dr Faust is very well known in the industry who provides high quality humic and fulvic acid products. So I contacted Dr Faust and had the pleasure of speaking to three different individuals including Joshua Hedberg who's a Director of Sales and handles Specialty Crops like medicinal at BIOAG and all of them have confirmed that nothing has changed regarding the source and they continue mining Cretaceous Period fresh water humic substances like they always did, and the only difference is the state law now changed a couple of things and now they are requiring companies to have their labels written out a certain way which doesn't make sense but they have to follow the protocol. As a matter of fact I have noticed that same exact thing happening to a couple different fertilizer companies and I also at first thought that they have switched to a cheaper product/ingredient and ultimately lower quality end product, but it turns out that the state is putting pressure and want the labels to be written a certain way which confuses people just like Ful-Power and Ful-Humix both used say "Derived from Cretaceous Period fresh water humic substances" and now they all say "Derived from: Leonardite". At first I thought that everyone is trying to shut me up and put me to sleep pretending that it's not a big deal and that they did change their source but after doing more research and speaking to all three individuals and noticing that this is happening to other companies as well, I realized that Josh, Dr Faust, and the other lady, I can't recall her name, were all telling me the truth. If you'd like, you can request a COA which is a Certificate Of Analysis for internal purposes that they create and on there you will see that it's not Leonardite but Derived from Cretaceous Period fresh water humic substances. I hope this helps!

I was a user of BioAg's FulHumix in powdered form because it was not derived from Leonardite. Disappointed to get this new product and find they had changed their input materials and this liquid formula is derived from Leonardite. While I'm glad that a byproduct of the coal industry can find a use, the energy used to process it into a usable product makes it counterproductive for my own needs.
