Yup... I flushed and went back to pureblend and calmag. Plant looks wonderful again.

I may revisit the IJ at some point when I have time, plants, and energy to spare. Thanks for the insight.

I use Iguana Juice, have used it since right before they changed the formula to make it more concentrated and pump system compatible. Liked it before they changed it, LOVE it after they changed it. I haven't used a meter or adjusted PH in a couple of years. I use it in perlite. Passive hydro style in pots with drip trays for reservoirs. Super simple, very productive. Plants are always healthy. You don't need any additives either. Works great for indicas, sativas, and hydrids, even the picky sensitive strains. It's a highly refined organic tea. If you can find a discount hydro shop to buy it from it's worth every penny.

I thought I would add a bit more info to this thread.
You want to go by plant size when you decide on a dosage. With organics like this feeding too strong is not a big deal for most strains. Organic ferts are different than non-organics. It's much more difficult to burn your plants with Iguana Juice and similar. If you have 2 foot high x 1.5 foot wide plants, feed them full dose of IJ (3.5ml/L). If your plants are 4 ft or bigger you may want to go with more like 6ml/L. When I transfer plants that are a couple of feet tall from veg to bloom, I start them with full dose 3.5ml/l from the very beginning and then gradually increase from weeks 1-5 of flower. Then I gradually reduce until harvest (for a fast 8 week hybrid).
About half way through flower you do want to feed plain water JUST ONE TIME. DO NOT FLUSH!! Just water it with plain water one time about half way through flower. Just enough to moisten the roots. This prevents buildup by forcing the plant to feed on the buildup in the roots while the plants are very hungry. This assures no buildup problems and they will be hungry the next time you feed.

what goes with I j? b-52,nirvana, parhana& trantula or greatwhite any other thing that woud compliment the Ij?????????????????????

this may be a bit late but 15 minutes on per 2 hours in hydroton is not enough water. Hydroton holds so much air you could keep the drip on nearly all the time without problems.
I've used Iguana Juice in organic DWC setups with great success but I always use Cal-mag and some Pure Blend or other reliable soluble fertilizer because Iguana does seem to be a bit inconsistent from batch to batch (as someone else pointed out above).

I have used IJ and it works well for a "organic" nutrient. I used 2-2.5ml/gallon.
I have never trusted AN's calc. it is as inconsistent as AN's Batching.

Too true!!! Iguana is a proper base feed!!! If you use it properly!

It lasts ages. I use 3 caps full per 20ltrs to my mix, with a temp of 21degrees and a air pump you can make it ferment overnight and be 20x stronger..

Ring them up and talk to customer support,, they say on the label if you actually have a bottle the number is on there and you can complain (quote the product code) tell them to give a near by hydro shop a call and make sure they will except an order for you otherwise you will have to get a safe addy, they should replace the bottle if it says 4ml per ltr..

[filtr0w]

mine also says 4ml per liter! this is wrong?

[filtr0w]

what would be a good organic complement to iguana? i mean something along the lines of guano, seaweed, etc

like an organic version of a boost, sugar? mollases?

[mg75]

no need for any really, but i would only use a bloom-booster and no other "compost" teas. there are many organic ones on the market.

I know, this is a 4 year old thread, but just in case someone else is gonna come across it, wondering what compliments IJ, here's my recommendations:

Zeus juice (by Nectar For The Gods)
Sea-90 (by SeaAgri)
Kelp (I prefer 100% Seaweed, by Grow More, since it's cheap and concentrated)
A silica product (I prefer Armor Kote, by Grow More, since it's cheap and concentrated)
An inoculant (I prefer Orca, by Plant Success, even though it is expensive)
A carb product(I prefer Aphrodite's Extraction, by Nectar For The Gods), remember not to use molasses in hydro...
Also try Bio-Cozyme as a foliar in week 1 and 2 of flowering, to shorten internodal length!
