Super thrive in organic grow

If I use super thrive just to get clones to root better in a DWC bubbler and then I never use it again after that, will my grow still be organic since I’ll only be using it less than a week and only for initial rioting?

From the USDA:

"Produce can be called organic if it’s certified to have grown on soil that had no prohibited substances applied for three years prior to harvest"

So I'm gonna go ahead and say no, it's not organic if you use an inorganic substance on your plant, even once during its lifespan.

Edit:

Also from the USDA:

"When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” this means they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. The remaining non-organic ingredients are produced without using prohibited practices (genetic engineering, for example) but can include substances that would not otherwise be allowed in 100% organic products"

So you can level your pot as "Grown using Organic practices" or some other form of creative advertisements, and technically not be lying
