Scientists claim organic substances stimulate plant cellular growth and division, including auxin type reactions. They enhance plant circulatory systems and promote optimum plant respiration80 and transportation systems. They decrease plant stress and premature deterioration. They dramatically improve seed germination and promote greater fibrous root growth.

They increase the size and numbers of legume root nodules and increase resistance to drought and insect infestation84. The Fulvic Plant Miracle85 In addition to duplicating many of the positive functions of humic acid, fulvic acid will:

• Stimulate plant metabolism

• Give positive effect on plant RNA & DNA

• Act as a catalyst in plant respiration

• Increase metabolism of proteins

• Increase activity of multiple enzymes

• Enhances the permeability of cell membranes

• Enhance cell division and cell elongation

• Aid chlorophyll synthesis

• Increase drought tolerance, and prevent wilting

• Increase crop yields

• Assist denitrification by microbes

• Buffer soil pH
