What kind of prices is everyone paying for these? The best I've found so far is $67 a bag for kelp meal and $58 a bag for 85% granular humic acid. Both are with shipping included. Is anyone getting better prices than this or are these good? Thanks!

I would think in your area you should be able to find a fertrell dealer that should have it cheaper than that.

We pay under $20 for humic and around $50 for kelp in Ontario.

Are all these Humics created equal? For a good quality humic acid for under 20 bucks for 50 pounds sounds amazing!

Cavity, I think the humic Chris mentioned is called "black earth" I think I just paid $19.25 from Bio-Ag , here in Ontario. The product accually comes from out west.Bio-Ag's phone no. is 1-519-656-2460. I'm sure they could hook you up with the producer. Hope this helps. Terry

Fertrell has a web page and you can do a search for a dealer near you. I was buying mine from a guy 35 miles down the road. Did a search and found a dealer 2.5 miles just down the road http://www.fertrell.com/

Out here humates run about 24$ for 50 lb bag, but kelp is 90$ for 50lb. Need to pay the truckers to haul it here.

Andy / PumpkinBrat - I contacted a local Fertrell dealer and got a good price on kelp...ordered 150 lbs. I knew about Fertrell but for some reason it just slipped my mind lol.
Dennis - I found Humic acid from organicgardengrower.com for $58 with shipping included. They're located in Gloucester, MA. Thanks everyone for your input!! This is my first year growing and everyone's been extremely helpful!

Oh, and Mark .... let me know how that kelp goes with your Wheaties. I might have to try it on my fruity pebbles ... or maybe sprinkled on some scrapple with maple syrup. lol
