Well their descriptive for Bud Candy reads more like the ingredients in Starburst candy.Now
is this the way to get the taste one might desire ? I thought that good buds come in different flavors naturally without flavor enhancers. Some of Bud Candy's ingredients are Citric Acid ,Raw Cane Juice and Sweet Brown Molasses. OH FOR CRY'IN OUT LOUD.. am I missing something here ? I'm all ears . THANKS

Its mainly to promote microlife in your soil but I think it makes it smoother without sacrificing potency.

Thanks Dr. I just recently purchased Iguana juice bloom. I thought that should be enough, but I read
that some peeps use Bud Candy in conjunction with Iguana juice or something similar. But this will be my first attempt at using the Iguana juice. Has anybody enjoying or has enjoyed the benefits of Iguana juice ?

I like iguana juice for veg, it seems to keep everything green and happy. And it's organic which is dope. Also, I just use molasses (black unsulphered) during flower, instead of bud candy. It adds sweetness and gives good energy to the plant. The Nuk is like... 1-0-5 so I guess it's not much for yield but it's great for heartiness and is a cheap organic nutrient.

This is organic gardening. That does not mean you substitute one bottle for another that has an organic label on it. (wait, second look, it doesn't even have a USDA or omri label, or am I missing something?)

Iguana Juice:
Ingredients: Fish base, krill extract, yucca extract, kelp meal and alfalfa extract.
(Also contains many non-plant food ingredients)

So it's fish emulsion (yuck), krill extract? We have crab meal, oyster meal, etc - why the hell do we need krill extract? Then yucca - cheap, kelp meal and alfalfa meal even cheaper. And some non plant food ingredients? Most of the bottle is water and then it gets thrown in the landfill. Not to mention you're supporting AN. Less then noble people.

Outrageous prices, crappy products. There are easy organic ways to do this stuff. You don't need this junk.

As long as your soil is rich in humates you shouldn't even have a ph meter.

Like Pattahabi said, all these things can be made at home with way better variable at a fraction of the price. Don't be swayed by marketing techniques. I get way better results with water, poo, and sugar than anything I've tried. A kelp tea will do exactly what your iguana juice does (if not, better) at a fraction of the price.

Then you can save even more time and hassle by doing water only soil mixes. Which IMO show the best results. Just sprinkle a little of that magic myco dust in at transplant and your plant will take off like a rocket!

MYCO's and Bennie's are the key to organics imho. They are fed by giving the plant kelp and molasses. So in theory, if you have a decent organic soil as your base medium and you sprinkle MYCO on the roots at transplant you wont need tons of fertilizers. The MYCO's bind themselves to your plants root zone and seek out food for your plant. Feed the MYCO's and not the plant. I use a version of Subcools super soil but mine is not as hot as Subs is, and I don't feed my plants anything until mid flower and then I only use a home made flowering tea. The only thing I give my plants for the first 3 months of their lives is Molasses, kelp, and water. Thats it. don't make this harder than it has to be. Simply get you some MYCO's and some bennie's, pick up a bottle of kelp at home depot, and a $3.00 bottle of grandmas molasses from your grocer and you are off to the Organic races. Good Luck Dude.

This is very true, mycos are special indeed. Not the only thing needed though.

Humates play a pretty big role as well.
