Carl Pool Iron Chelate 1 Lb - Water Soluble Fertilizers

Real good stuff. Have had a curry leaf plan that hadn't grown new shoots in a couple of years. Saw somewhere that Iron Chelate may help. Got this and it has worked really well. Have a few new shoots already (in 2 months). It has also helped a lot with my lemongrass plants as well. Our soil here in Northern VA is really alkaline and this has really helped the growth of the plants. So far have used it on curry leaves, lemon grass, mint and Holy basil! Sister took it and used it on a whole bunch of plants (hibiscus, pumpkin etc). Maybe will update here after a couple of months seeing how they do :)

Easy to apply. Within 1-2 days after application my bushes looked green and healthy again! The one thing I don't like is the size of the container gives the impression that it's holding more than it really is. When opening the container I discovered that's only half full. I guess that its still 1lb of product inside. Maybe there's a chemistry reason the manufacturer does it this way.

Dissolves instantly, not sure if my plants are consuming it or not? One thing you have to be extremely careful with is, you will have to have a way to ph your water and you'll have to have "ph up". A very small amount of this product will drastically change the ph to super acidic. This is why some people have burned their plants when spraying the leaves with it. No joke a 5ml tsp of this in a couple of gallons, will drop the water ph from 6.7 to the 3's. One other observation is the container comes barely half full.

I bought one can of this and it made my plants so happy that I bought a second can. I'm adding a photo of two leaves from my gardenia bush. The yellow one is representative on the leaves on the plant prior to feeding it the chelated iron. The green leaf is what grew within a week of the iron application. While using this, I'm also gradually lowering the pH of the soil by periodically applying sulfur, but the process can't really be rushed, and in the meantime this miracle powder has really greened up my garden.

I have a few river birch trees which had a moderate touch of chlorosis. I've used this product following the directions which cleared up the chlorosis pretty good. I ended up using the product twice about a month or two apart. The trees look good now but with the hot weather and dry conditions, watering is a must. I highly recommend using the Iron Chelate if your birch trees have Chlorosis.

Had no useful effect foliage feeding small trees. But had remarkable effect on my azaleas. They greened up within a week.

The Iron DTPA is effective at higher pH than the typical EDTA chelates. Can use as foliar on Citrus, but NOT when there are fruits. ( It will stain the fruit skin) Can also safely be used in Aquaculture systems.

Thank you everyone for your reviews of this product it worked great for me don’t be afraid to use this on your lawn just mix one and a half teaspoon per gallon that’s what I did and in 48 hours my lawn was green
