Superthrive

[nuglets]

hey guys, just wanted to get peoples feedback on how they are using superthrive. i've heard people that use it just for sick plants and clones. i know people use it as a foliar spray. i've also gotten advice to use a small amount of it with every water from veg to harvest. what do you guys think? how are you using it?

Instead of asking a bunch of people about a product that they're probably using incorrectly, google the ingredients yourself to determine if and when they're useful to plants.

1-naphthylacetic acid & vitamin B-1

that's kinda rude man. isn't the point of this forum to learn from other people's experience. maybe some of us don't want to google everything and would like to talk about it on the forum. sorry if my question offended you but i'm here to learn from others. not from google.

My apologies if I came off as rude. My point is that there is a ton of bad info on these boards and the only way to side-step that is to learn about these types of products by researching the ingredients. At that point you can then use those products (or not use them) based on whether said ingredients are beneficial to plants.

Example: Someone is raving about some PK booster called 'super bud juice blaster' at $100 per quart. You look up the guaranteed analysis and find it's only potassium and phosphorus. Instead of spending $100 on fancy packaging, you could either go out and buy monopotassium phosphate at pennies on the dollar or use another product that contained P and K in the same ratios at a quarter the cost of 'super bud juice blaster'. Understand my point?

I've used it for first watering after putting germinated seed in soil... not a lot just a drop or 2... and I've used it during transplants to help alleviate stress. Those are the only times I use it... good luck stay high

you obviously know what you're doing man. your plants are amazing. i'm just new to all of this and sometimes learning about nutrients and what they do can be a little overwhelming. i mean, i love growing but getting setup and learning the plants is hard enough. i'm just getting a small grip on nutrients and the whole NPK ratio. i'm just trying to grow some free smoke for myself but also want it to be quality. sometimes too though it helps to talk to other people that are using the product and see what they say.

thanks again for clearing that up and the advice. everything is cool. i hope you keep growing fantastic buds for a long time man.

Homebrewers on point.

Honestly, I use the stuff for house plants and I really have never noticed a difference. From what I've heard (forum withcraft), its not good for flowering and foliar spray. People use it whenever there's a chance of transplant shock or for cloning. I can't vouch for any of that though.

I'll start by saying I'M A NOOB. With that said superthrive saved me from almost killing my 1st attempt when I MASSIVELY overfed my plants. I used 1 drop per gallon and it stood my plants back up in a couple of hours. 2 of the 6 had completely collapsed and were hanging over the edge of the pots when I found them. I think it also helped minimize the burn from the overfeeding. I flushed everything with alot of distilled water the next day too. It has it's uses but used wrong it can kill your babies. No more than 1 or 2 drops per gallon, just like the bottle says.

I do use SUPERthrive for transplant only. I use 1/4 ML per gallon. My bottle of ST is about run out. Im gonna try the Dyna-Gro KLN soon. Its very important for you to learn the trial and error (mistakes) it will hone your skill as greenthumb better by next grows

Happy growing.
