Here is the place to (chit chat) about anything earth juice related: https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=163426
EJ seems to have partnered with a company called Hydro-Organics & now offer ALOT more products (like over 40).
The labels are different & are oddly not listed on the Earth Juice homepage.
The kind folks at HTG (High Tech Garden) told me they can special order them. http://www.htgsupply.com/
Call or Email & ask for CJ or Marcus
Lets see whats up with this stuff.

* contains 3% potassium
Fulvic Acid
Fulvic Acid is far superior in action to humic acid due to its low molecular weight, which enables it to go through the cell membranes of roots and leaves. Where humic acid is soluble in alkaline media only, Fulvic Acid is soluble in all media. Fulvic Acid will power up the entire plant, from the roots to the growing tips, by accentuating the production of nucleic acids and photosynthesis. Used as a foliar or add to solutions. Especially recommended: adding to liquid micronutrient formulations.
Soy-FUL - 0-1-0

PH Up – PH Down
Up = Potassium Bi-Carbinate
Down = Citric Acid
* Rarely used “this is organics, fellow farmers” Dont like to use this stuff unless there is a major problem.
* Takes a good bit of crystals to change hard water BUT a small amount has big affect with RO water.
* PH Down crystals could come in handy for bubble cloners when PH is best set at around 5.5 for best results.
* Bubbling most EJ teas will make the PH start very low in the 4’s – after 12 to 36 hrs the PH will climb into the 7’s “in most cases” try to catch that drift if tuning the mediums PH.
___________________________________________________________________
IMO Runoff tests using RO water can give useful info.
Here my deal on PH / EC with organics “simply” – Pot grows best around 6.5 or 6-7 get out of that range to long & deficiencies / problems show up.
Its real easy to get carried away with lime & or hard water. PH can easily get into the 7’s not absorbing nutes quickly being out of the optimum range. Ya might end up with some lockout, leaves showing deficiencies so ya crank up the feeding rates. Quickly you can have two problems, high PH lockout & high EC "nute" lockout.
But on the other end your medium might have to much peatmoss & not enough lime. Woods dirt in my area is great but PH test in at 5.5 - same deal but on the low end "acidic".
Or maybe you’re a scardy cat feeder & you need to jack it up & double your EC runoff ?
The stuff will grow pretty darn good with things out of wack but getting things zeroed in will reward.
Use my meter less & less but it is a handy weapon for me – keeps me from guessing.
Using mostly RO water also helps me with control.

Rich Humic lab results show 22% humic acid through the alkaline extraction method and 3% humic acid through the acid insoluble method. Because some states recognize only the acid insoluble method, we list Rich Humic at 3% humic acid.

PH Up – PH Down
Up = Potassium Bi-Carbinate
Down = Citric Acid
* Rarely used “this is organics, fellow farmers” Dont like to use this stuff unless there is a major problem.
* Takes a good bit of crystals to change hard water BUT a small amount has big affect with RO water.
* PH Down crystals could come in handy for bubble cloners when PH is best set at around 5.5 for best results.
* Bubbling most EJ teas will make the PH start very low in the 4’s – after 12 to 36 hrs the PH will climb into the 7’s “in most cases” try to catch that drift if tuning the mediums PH.

IMO Runoff tests using RO water can give useful info.
Here my deal on PH / EC with organics “simply” – Pot grows best around 6.5 or 6-7 get out of that range to long & deficiencies / problems show up.
Its real easy to get carried away with lime & or hard water. PH can easily get into the 7’s not absorbing nutes quickly being out of the optimum range. Ya might end up with some lockout, leaves showing deficiencies so ya crank up the feeding rates. Quickly you can have two problems, high PH lockout & high EC "nute" lockout.
But on the other end your medium might have to much peatmoss & not enough lime. Woods dirt in my area is great but PH test in at 5.5 - same deal but on the low end "acidic".
Or maybe you’re a scardy cat feeder & you need to jack it up & double your EC runoff ?
The stuff will grow pretty darn good with things out of wack but getting things zeroed in will reward.
Use my meter less & less but it is a handy weapon for me – keeps me from guessing.
Using mostly RO water also helps me with control.
