From impenetrable caliche to toxic anaerobic “black layer” that never seems to dry out, soil infiltration challenges are among the most persistent problems faced in agriculture & turf management, nationwide. Sulfuric / N-phuric acids and gypsum treatments only offer temporary relief and all too often create long term challenges including flush of growth in turf, soil cementation, reduced pore space, hydrophobic soil, bacterial proliferation leading to septic soil water conditions, nutritional deficiencies (macro and micro), disease, root rot pest pressure.
WaterSOLV™ by HCT delivers a fundamentally, Foundational solution You Can Measure
Rather than masking symptoms, WaterSOLV™ restores water movement, soil function, nutritonal availablity and the volume of plant uptake, at the chemical and biological level, converting fertilizers to nutrition, while restoring soil structure, soil biology activity, vegetation growth, health and crop production (crop specific 18 to as much as 70%) with less water, inpust and for about $0.30 cents on the dollar.
The results are measurable from volume of nutritional uptake (SAO Analyses), soil physical, chemical and biological prperties, vegetation vigor (visual and physical), sodium and chloride detoxifiation, unifiormity, predictability, visual in the data from all apsects of agronomy. WaterSOLV™ is a program - a proprietary acid solution that liberates complexed fertilizer, solubilies minerals and metal to an always drinkable ionic form, prevents corrison, detoxifies sodium and disperses organic matter to perpetuate beneficial bioligical activity throught water, soil and vegetation systemically, amd adds dissolved oxygen into the soil. Safer than alternative acids, more effective, extremely low volumes of porduct (9 times less than 93% sulfuric, 18 times less than N-pHuric), substantially more effective - ost and performance, sustainably. Faster growth rates, delivering immediate and lasting returns for any soil type, water quality and environmental conditions. Certified with the California Department of Food and Agriculture. Organic labeled porducts available.
“What I'm seeing more is having to put less fertilizer into the field because the plant is actually picking everything up.
I was skeptical. We’ve got a couple blocks that we couldn't get to penetrate. I would always see water coming up on the berm and it would just puddle off…started using your stuff, and about three months later, I said pull every acid tank I’ve got. Let’s go.
I watch what the plant’s doing, I watch what the vine looks like, what the tree looks like, how it’s up taking. I mean, it’s unlocking the soil. It's unlocking everything. ”

What Makes WaterSOLV™ Different?
WaterSOLV™ addresses the root causes, not just the symptoms. Plants are what they drink. The volume of the full range of nuteints, and oxygem, in soil, theoughout the existing and desired root zones, save money, increase health and porduction. We make nutrient rich, healthy and beneficial nutrints for plant consumption, evidenced in tissue and SAP Analyses volume of nutritional uptake.
✔ Convert Bound Minerals into Plant-Available Nutrition: Traditional acids lower pH but leave behind insoluble mineral scales that cement soil particles and restrict water flow. WaterSOLV™ neutralizes these bonds on an ionic level to releases nutrients and allow toxins to flush.
✔ Detoxify Sodium and Chloride: Excess sodium and chlorides can inhibit proper absorption plant uptake. WaterSOLV™ neutralizes these compounds, helping water move freely through the soil profile and nutrients to finally be fully utilized by surrounding vegitation.
✔ Break Down Organic Blockages: Anaerobic conditions, black layer, and biofilms suffocate roots and healthy bacteria. WaterSOLV™ disrupts these conditions, enhancing oxygen flow and restoring microbial balance.
✔ Improves Infiltration and Root Zone Functionality: WaterSOLV™ treatment produces increased infiltration, healthier, longer lasting hydration without surfactants, and the healthiest, deepest root systems working with all soil types and irrigation challenges.

"I think the nice part about WaterSOLV™ is that it allows what you have to work with for you, and makes it stronger. It makes it available. You always know there’s something working in the plant's favor.
You almost take the water as a negative when all of a sudden you’re not worried about it crippling your agronomically. WaterSOLV™ has become a foundation product for us in our agronomic plan."

So, we are at the point now where my son and I and several growers on board. We believe that it’s doing everything Todd and I talked about.
Now we are just going to go out and spread the word and see how many farmers we can help with this program and change the dynamics of agriculture in central Arizona and anywhere else.”

WaterSOLV™ offers a science-based path to healthier, more productive outcomes for the most challenging soil profiles.

Less water and real results. That’s the WaterSOLV™ Solution.
From turf to wells to agriculture, WaterSOLV™ is challenging conventional water and soil treatment practices and solving problems previously thought to be manageable at best.
HCT's purpose and privilege is providing sustainable and cost effective solutions to the chronic problems that plague soil health in the world of water and agronomy. We consistently reduce water demand 15% and increase crop yields 18% and more. When you treat water ‘well’ with WaterSOLV™ you increase efficiency, decrease costs, increase yield, improve pore space and add oxygen chemically. We can show you how to restore soil infiltration and soil operability just by treating your water and for substantially less than you're spending now.
