Superthrive

Totally agree with sOhigh. However Superthrive is a hormone, not a nute or additive. I use it for moms and even though I very much like doing side by sides, (anally retentive at times). I would not consider it worthy of my time with superthrive alone. I have however, have done a side by side with superthrive with sick plants, over feed plants and moms. All 3 problems where with same genetics.
sick plants:
1.plants that went limp from no water, looked like there was no way of coming back, the plant with superthrive sprung back much faster and yielded more at the end, the one with water only did come back much slower and produced far less. (both plants when healthy went back to their normal feeding) Now its just a product I keep on my shelve. any shock the plant goes through, will and does, come back faster and healthier using superthrive.
over feed plants:
1. of course water only blah,blah. However would ST help any. Well I took 4 plants in soil same genetics of course, all over feed. now 2 got flushed with water only, the other 2 got flushed with ST mix, any differance...? no, in the first 5 days nothin too differant. i went to 1/2 nutes on all 4, the 2 that got ST mix flush also got alittle ST in nute mix. on the 9th day the differance was, mildly saying, FUCKIN INCREDIBLE. The energy of the plants (its life force) was much stronger with the 2 ST plants, now with genetics and indoor enviroment all the same and the only diff. being alittle ST. At the end yield was alittle higher (enough to notice nothing to sing about) but the taste was sweeter, roots healthier and high a little differant, not better just alittle more energetic.
and for moms:
1. well i baby my moms and grow mammas in soil...in my experience well thats a differant tale...anyways i use a little with my moms and problems have been slim to none. ST is NOT A FIX ALL BY ANY MEANS... i have simply notice it can help its energy and over all spirit of the plant. I have growin for over 10 years and still love to learn anything i can. i'm new to site so hello and thank you for the info i've read and hope to contribute to (so far) a great site.

i would use it as a stress reliever because i have had plants sagging and then in within hours brought up to life no joke.

it does not smell to bad it is one of those kind of smells where you have to take a quick sniff after each opening of the bottle, you know like a marker or gas but not as harsh.

Good Stuff! Even the dying leaves at the bottom of a canopy start to turn green again minutes after using this stuff. In my experience this works well to prevents stress after transplants, taking clones or just pruning mothers. I have never needed to used it during flowering.

I have been using ST for 3-grows, although i can not state if it has helped at all...i have had no bad reactions to using it...i have used it from veg to flower and it did not delay flowering...i have used a cap full per gallon of water....and use it on every watering....no problems....i do dislike the price though


Peace

I have successfully used superthrive on 6 grows. i swear by it. a word of caution tho: it has been known to cause mutations in high doses due to some growth hormones present in the solution. during the experimental phases of its use, with only 1.5 x recommended dose: fan leaf fingers have grown together, stems stretch exponentially, leaves begin to burn, and it can actually express the hermie gene if present in the plants genetics.
when the recommended dose was used with fertilizers (bi-weekly) i noticed increased growth for up to a week, while the most substancial growth was noticed within the first 3 days.

This product has a hormone in it that will cause herpies, this will also change the make-up of all mothers too. You will be fine nothing but female off your mothers then one day, bam! 50 to 60 percent hermies!! then the numbers will go up. Keep using it get great results, and then i told you so, this stuff is not good in your plants because your plants end up in YOU! do you want to risk you for a quicer crop or that of your bros?? peace, sees grower for over 40 years.

I have beenusing Super Thrive since I was a little boy, am 54 now, my grandpa used it with his plants. I have been using it with my girls for 41 years now and there is a big difference with and without it. Granted it is not a cure all and was never intended or advertised as a cure all, when cloning, veg, pruning mean topping taking clones or if you plant is in a stressful environment then nothing comes close. One drop per gallon.......read the directions, more than than that is not good, it will prolong your veg time, hence retard flowering if you use it too long. I use it once a week during veg and now that flower time is about to happen for outdoor growers I stop. This is a good thread, whether it is organic or not don´t know don´t care this is the only thing I use outside of my composted soil and manure teas in my grow. It will not hurt your soil, or any of the goodies living there. I don´t know about giving hermies, my guess is that many growers over use their nutes and other store bought stuff so just give it a try and if following directions my $12 bottle has lasted 3 years now and I still have over 3-4 a bottle pretty cheap if you ask me. Just my two cents but proven results with it....:bigjoint:

give us a break! we ALL know we get herpes from the toilet seat! Herpes is a VIRUS which means you have to come in contact with the VIRUS to get the disease so unless superthrive is an aphrodisiac there is NO WAY it can cause herpes what you smokin anyhow? have a good year- the golden year of the tiger starts on feb 14 good luck:eyesmoke:bongsmilie

I love superthrive. I dont if it did the trick but i got 100 percent success with cloens, no apparent shock from transplant and i think i gonna get it tattood on me.
Great for fresh clones, transplant shock, general unhealthy plant, THIS ISNT MEANT to make your plants bigger and buddies its simply a mix of hormones that the plant doesn't get enough of . THEY LOVE IT. By far the best $10 ever spent on plant product. For all those people knocking it saying " I dont think or i heard" stfu until you try it. Again its simply for healthier plants, MOST NOTICEABLE when used on wilting or yellowing plants. BOOOM back to picture perfect health. Then again not letting the plants get to that stage would be better.

How do you know? Plants manufacturer their own hormones, they do not need our "help".

It will have no positive bearing on the health or blooming of your plants, it has no effect on the transportation of water within the xylem.

It will help with rooting, to a degree but only because of the auxin. You need to read this: http://www.puyallup.wsu.edu/~Linda%20Chalker-Scott/Horticultural%20Myths_files/Myths/Vitamin%20B1.pdf
