avoid Superthrive, that highly over-rated garbage kills young seedlings :wtf: ... it does help rooting, helpful in cloning, but only use 1-2 DROPS per gallon ... I'd avoid it altogether ... also, peat is too acidic for cannabis, it will get you by, but is not the medium of choice ... I recommend RapidRooter plugs for your cloning/seedstarting needs ... and, cloning gel sticks to the stem better than the powder ... I used the powder for years, it works OK, too ... I wonder if anyone caught the title to this thread, of a 'zero budget' ... I assume everyone sees now, there ain't no such thing as 'free', maybe that's why pot costs so much ... good growing :thumbsup:
