Superthrive according to the bottle just says like a couple drops per gallon. So a drop or so per liter is fine. All superthrive is is some vitamins and hormones and shit plants need, you're not going to fuck them up by giving them a little too much. Just a few drops will do it though, you don't need much. You can add more than a few drops, like 1/4 teaspoon if you just transplanted or they're looking shitty to help combat shock too.

Hi skunkNZ,

5 litres is 1 gallon your meant to use 1 drop for every 5 litres.But your not meant to use it during flowering just in veg.

I ahve been told and read on this forum that superthrive isn't usually used in the flowering cycle of the plants life. Unless you are using it once or twice to provide relif from stress or a transplant.

just what I read tho..

good luck

You guys are correct, you do not use during flower unless a stress takes place such as a late transplant or a severe shock. With a liter use about one drop per liter from a dropper.

How old do they need to be for SuperThrive to be used?

You can use superthrive as early as germination. According to the label on the bottle.

SuperThrive is a root hormone, generally 1-2 drops per litre.

You can use it from the seedling stage.

I use less than the label says for seedlings, about what the label says for normal watering in veg, and 2x what the label says for a transplant.
Careful not to overdo it... too much will slow growth.

While people know not to use it during flowering some don't know why. I'll tell you. The superthrive forumula is urine based and as such is most effective in seedling and veg. It is a stress relieving substance that helps a plant to establish and mantain a healthy root system and to promote strong growth in the stems and leafs, not flowers, of a plant. For this reason superthrive is ineffective and at times counterproductive during the flowering stage.
