Superthrive

this stuff really works, it's part of my system.....use 1 week before flowering(12/12), and then once again at 4 weeks into flowering, 2 drops per gallon on both times, ...this will extend ur flowering time, watch ur trich's, not the avg. time of the strain....one more big note, do not let ur plant see any dark after giving superthrive, it will auto flower, this is very important if ur using clones.

i've got one word for you. BULLSHIT! only autoflowering strain will autoflower. and why would you want to extend flowering time? if anything you'd want to shorten it to speed up turnover time. superthrive is the biggest hoax in horticulture history. they don't even give you a definitive ingredients/npk listing. you are the first person i've ever heard of that endorses that stuff. it's possible that you have an autoflowering strain anyhow. but do a grow, two plants. feed one stupidthrive and one normal nutes. you'll see what i mean.
i also want you to know that i'm not trying to start a flamewar or argument, but that stuff does NOTHING AT ALL and is a scam.

well, u have the right to believe what u will, i have 27 yrs exper. in growing and it does work, trust me, no auto flowering strain here, try this on ur next grow, take 2 of any strain, not auto, of couse. do what i said, i bet u, 10 blueberry seeds, that the one given super, will flower, and use 18/6 light cycle, and extending the flowering time, well u get stuff like this. i don't make claims, that r not true

My largest bud on my last grow was just as big and I didn't use superthrive, not to say it doesn't work, but shit man, why would I spend more money to get the same crop? But I sure wouldn't mind some of those seeds.

Hey FunnyFarmer.......
I have been in this game for a long time and I have seen alot of things come and go and IMHO "Superthrive" works and works well ....if it is used as intended it is NOT a FERT(as some think it is )....comparing Thrive to a Fert aint to bright folks.
I'm not familiar with it causing flowering.......my old "Blueberry" (DJ Short) would flower under 16 hours of light and flowered for 9 days longer than her sisters under 12/12.....now I have grown Hash plant under 42hours of light and 12 of dark for 68 42/12 hour cycles and grown Massive buds they were all tied to a overhead support system for the last 3 weeks ...but that requires a VERY costly diggi timer...not worth it...I did not have to pay for the timer (grower had more dollars than sense).....
All I can say guys is don't knock the Thrive..............and lookin at yer' ladies in full bloom ...Makes me miss HID's

thank u drbud, its nice to see some 'old school' ppl around..lol, i have done alot of exper. w/ this stuff, and it will induce flowering giving almost any kind of dark period, it is quite strange. i wood guess that there is a homone in it, that excellerate the sexing homone in the plant, ( the one that makes sexing happen).... and something?, prolongs the "life" in the plant, i know it takes longer to harvest, but i love growing huge colas., call me strange, but i love the grow, more then the smoking, one of my quotes...there is a differance between growing and smoking, think about this before u start, i like to add, that this in all done on soil grows also, my next exper. is i'll be working w/ aspirin, i have been doing some research on this. have u read something on aspirin?....happy growing all, drbud, heres a pic of MY blueberry strain, have been doing some work w/ it, u guys asking about wanting blueberry seeds, well, w/ all the 'down-playing" of my info., and all, i dought u wood want any of my strain, this one has about 2 more weeks.

I've tried superthrive, but only for seedlings, and early veg as that is what I was told to do by a source.. I was told to cut it out before flower as the hormones can mess with flowering, and possibly causing sex reverting, or more males/hermi tendencies. Any experiance with that happening? Also was told it can screw with the taste if used to close to harvest as the vitamins are not water soluble, and unable to be flushed in time for harvest.

Thanks for sharing your info. Interesting to hear what additives other use, and find to work. Another product I heard may possibly work is the spray and grow. Heard it can really increase yeilds.. Never tried it though...

Not sure if I'm down with that wacky longer flower times though, and needing to watch those trichs for an unusually long time. Longer then the strain would usaully go if untreated.. Don't think my flowering has ever been effected by using it in veg..hmmm

the male/female ratio is still the same, from my exper., have also tryed on femalized seeds too. out of the few i have tryed ( 8 ), all have stayed female, no hermi. from all the diff. times of growth, the best results was the one i said before, 1 week before flowering, and then one more time, 4 weeks into flowering....i have never heard of spray and grow, have a link?, also i have tried the brown sugar thing, close to harvest, never seen any big diff. in yield, thanks for ur input

Yes here is the web site for spray and grow http://www.spray-n-growwholesale.com/sngws.htm

As far as the brown sugar thing... I recently started using a product called sweet leaf made by Advanced Nutrients (grow journal linked below).. It has the sugar cane, and all that good stuff in it. You may want to try that as I found it easy to use, and it does add a lot more then just the sugars.. Supposedly increases resin production, and creates a sweeter, more aromatic harvest... First time I'm trying it so we'll see..

i agree with you completely dude. st is shit! what a total waste of money. the directions say 1 drop per gallon. 1 drop??? even the most concentrated nutes, @ 1 drop will do nothing. autoflowering??? i doubt it, butt even if that were true, that's just one more reason to "not" use it. as i've said before, why can't you get an msds on this stuff? because it's a scam, that's why. course, this is just my opinion.

yes, everyone knows it's a supp. it's just that it's not worth jack~! i know it's hard to change your mind about something once you've already handed your hard earned dough over. next time you grow, pick one plant to not give the "thrive" and you'll see what i mean.
peace
