Using Superthrive

Sussed4life · Jul 15, 2009

Have any of you fellow farmers used superthrive? If so I was wondering at what rate and if it worked well or not? Thanks

Fred el Gato · Jul 15, 2009

I've used it at a rate of 1-2 drops per gallon, every other feed. Seems to keep my girl happy, she's 7 weeks and 3 foot tall and bushy. Good luck. Fred

Always use Superthrive when I am transplanting clones...
also when I go from smaller container to larger container...

What's it doing for you?

I have a HUGE gallon bottle of SuperThrive, but I have never used it. I always heard the bad things about using it, but never heard the positive. So I would love to hear some input

It helps with plant vigour and general health. It's full of vitamins and amino acids that they really like. I use Superthrive in my baby mix and I've always got really healthy looking vegging plants, and get great strike rates on my clones (99%+).

The only downside I've heard is to not use it in flower, so I don't. What downsides have you heard?

Nice thoughts farmers.I´ve used it in my last crop but according BOG´s recommendations -one time during the 2 week of flower and I had no problems. Next time I´ll try it in the veg cycle.

Well, I mainly heard of hermie and mutation problems that otherwise were not apparent till use of SuperThrive. If I remember correctly it's mostly due to the 'hormone treatment' that SuperThrive contains, and dually attributes to positive growth patterns as well.

I had bought the stuff only hearing the good. After further research I came across a lot of SuperThrive bashers... So, I from then on out was torn between using it or not. I considered it a flip of a coin to either being negative or positive effect, and that was not my favorable in my mind.

If I hear more positive I will crack open the bottle and use some... Last I tried it was soooooooo caked with salt buildup I could not for the life of me open it, ha.

And is it just me or is stuff PUNGENT or WHAT??? I got a little on my hand and I was smelling worse then if I had taken a gasoline bath!

as cheesy as the label looks the stuff works miricales. I swear by that stuff. I am in agreeance with the others about no use in flower. It contains Napthalacetic acid which is not something one wants to ingest in any form. Nasty stuff. It is mostly B vitamins. I have had seeds almost ten years old spout without much difficultly. Love it. great for clones, at a teaspoon a gallon to dip and water with = 0 stress. enjoy

the best reason to use Superthrive is for the traicontanol....that shit is the bomb

v0ssman · Jul 17, 2009

it smells like those horse sized multivitamins that has way more than enough all around minerals and such to keep a plant or human happy. 1-3 drops per gallon during veg

heeznutz · Jul 17, 2009

I only use it in my cloner , never had a need for it other than that . Knock on Wood .

addicted · Jul 18, 2009

Nothing but praises so far... I must say I am impressed!!:evilgrin0013:

On another forum, I remember the tide would turn very quickly on the mere mention of SuperThrive!

southernstoner · Jul 18, 2009

i use at 1 drop per gal also...heard 3 per gal would burn plants...SS

BigSatan · Jul 18, 2009

Always used superthrive with neem as foliar to replace some of what those little suckers take and help the plant heal. In summer when theres more heat/air stress and bug issues i use it n bloom as well as veg with never a noticable bad at all. Its got a lot of junk in it but mostly iron and iron is a maojor element in all living things immune systems and also a catlyst for adaption to extremes of elements.

It will make them grow like mad in those first three weeks of bloom when they veg so it may cause uissues with a plant thats stretching too much I guess... in many years though never noticed any mutations at all. Its pricey though for my cheapness.
