there are two really good fish hydrolysate products - Organic Gem and Neptune's Harvest.  They have both been tested, and give good bacterial and fungal growth.  The hydrolysate products by either company really help grow some good fungi.  the Organic Gem is higher in calcium so you get a benefit there, if your soils need calcium. 

If your soil is "sticky", then it needs more calcium. 

Humic acids products - you want humic acids that are extracted using WATER, not strong acids or bases.  Typically, the Turf Pro product, Terra Vita (get their water-extracted humic product), and Hydrahume (Helena) are good.  And again, tested to determine microbial response.  Check www.earthfortification.com for data.

OK?
