Iguana juice grow

Before I throw it away I just thought I'd ask. Has anyone used iguana juice grow? I started using it 3 months ago and I have nothing but problems. I'm using promix amended with peat moss and perlite. My runoff is 61-62 with 6.4 going in. I'm seeing what looks like nitrogen toxicity I'm using it 1/2 strength with cal mag plus. I'm getting pointing down leaf tips. I'm seeing all kinds of stuff that looks like adeficiency but when I bump the nute strength up it gets worse. Now I gotta flush and dry them out. Going around in circles it seems. I've used roots organic grow and bloom. Never had any of this shit happen. Any advice?

I have used iguana grow and bloom forever as base nutrients. They work great and the end product as always knockout quality! Use it in ocean forest or happy frog soil. Mix it with RO or distilled water. Start using it at 1/4 strength. A couple weeks later raise it 1/2 strength.. Hold there. Observe for nice green leaves, and no burnt tips. You can go up to 3/4 strength, and have no problems using iguana juice alone. Keep it at 1/2 strength using iguana juice with allot of additives.

Is the promix soil the problem? I've used ocean floor and I wasn't impressed with it. I've used roots organics for a few years with promix and never had troubles. I did switch to led and now I'm back to hps.

I forgot to mention. The iguana juice smells like really rotten smelly fish. Is that normal for that product? Is it possible it went bad or its old? There is no date on the bottle.

No its supposed to smell fishy. Organic nutrients usually are stinker than sythetics. Once again Iguana grow and bloom are excellent, I have older 1 liter bottles for over 2 years, and it doesnt go bad, and the plants explode when added. As for soil I can only speak for what I use. Ocean Forest has had lots of crap in it, so happy frog is my first choice. Both work swell with Iguana. Check your water too, cause I use disttiled which starts at zero ppm before adding Iguana. PH usually ends up 6.0 to 6.3 so I never PH. I more just watch the PPM of the Iguana Jiuice and all my other suppliments. I switches to all LED and am never going back.
