Superthrive

[JerryMawuana]

I was reading up on superthrive a bit today, and some things were saying to only use it once or twice (at 1tsp/gal) throughout vegging, and never during flowering. That's not at all what I've been doing... I use 4 or 5 drops per gallon each time I water for the whole life cycle other than flushing, which seems to be working fine. So I figured I should ask the people whose opinions I trust the most when it comes to my girls. Am I using the superthrive wrong? But more so, should I stop using it during flowering?

I think Campesino uses superthrive, he would be able to help you out.

Howdy JerryMawuana, I tried the 'superthrive' on a grow several years ago and I could not see any benefits from it's use, and I'm not too sure that it did not do some harm to the plants. It was on my third grow and was the lowest yield of all of my grows so far. Maybe I did not apply it correctly (or due to my 'newest'), but I have had much improved yields using the GH supplements that I am now using.
Good luck with Your grow.

Oh really? So maybe I'll try not using it next crop and see what happens. Thank you for your input DW2.

I'm not sure what it's effect on EC is. I've never actually checked the EC when I water, is it that important?

Thank you, I appreciate the info Campesino
Will any multimeter work, or do I need to buy a certain type?
