Weezard is right in that you should do some reading before asking, but there are lots of hep'ful people on this site (Weez being amongst the forefront!) who would be glad to offer advice and/or tips...

I can't believe that I've actually found something to disagree with Weezard on, tho... I personally like Sup3rthr!v3, or its knockoffs, but more for the younglings and sickly/stressed plants that need a bit of a boost. It does seem to help seeds to sprout more vigorously, but that is at a concentration of 25drops per ga. I will, however, concede that I have not yet done a side-by-side grow test with it, but y'know, that sounds like a good idea, Weez...

Please do,
Done it, is mo' betta dan "seems to".

Nevah hesitate to disagree wit' me.
Too often, we see what we wanna see.

Dat's how I learn t'ings bes'.
Bad info can be far worse than no info, yah?.

After a critical read of the Superthrive ads I realized that there were no facts offered, not one, jus' wild claims.
Pure hyperbole of the 4th water.

I'm on a budget, no coin to waste.
So I bummed some S. T. from a friend and did some side by side testing.

No discernable difference when used as directed.
So, I did some mo' critical reading.

Best URL a grower can have, IMHO

A minor recommendation about lighting... what you have right now is fine, but they'll need a lot more light soon. If you're sticking with CFLs, buy 6500k or 4100k bulbs for the vegetative period, and 2700k colour temp when it comes time to flower. LOTS more bulbs If you can, pick up the ones put out by SunBl4st3r, because for 26w, they put out 2500 lumens, making them the most efficient at lumens per watt.
Good tip on da lights.
Looks like dis neoteric horticultivator is in good hands.
Goodonya, C. C. I'ma go eat some flies fo' a while.

Aloha,
