What do YOU think about Superthrive?

I'm just wondering if, why, and how anybody else uses superthrive? Do you use it for a certain reason, or for a certain period during the grow cycle? How much do you use? How do you apply it? Success or Fail? You get the idea. There is a lot of mystery surrounding this product, and most everything Ive heard about it is personal opinion. So with that being said I want as many opinions or facts as possible.

I'll start. I use superthrive through the entire veg stage at the rate of one drop per gallon along with my usual nutrient mix. Why do i use it through the veg stage? I dont know. I just do, but in my opinion Ive notice no better result while using it for growth. I do not use it during flower cycle at all. Why? Because a trusted source told me not too, so I dont.

I use superthrive for cloning. If you ask me making roots is what this product is for. I use it at the rate of 10+ drops per gallon along with Olivias. Ive experimented by putting pure drops of superthrive on some clones. Some of them rooted within the next day (formed small roots not sticking out of the cube roots). And a couple rotted. I think my temp was a bit high. I plan on trying this again in a more controlled dome.

Well thats what I have to say about it. I hope a lot of others have something to say about it too.

this is not meant to be snide in any way, but if you do a search there are about a dozen threads where this has been covered in extensive detail by some well respected members. i had some good ditties myself in a few of those threads. i just can't bring myself to type it out a 5th time.

I did search but the ones I looked at weren't exactly what I was looking for. Ill try again though. And BTW telling someone to search is never snide, its what all members especially noobs should do before posting. Im gonna search again and maybe spend more time looking for what i want.

Edit:
Searched again and no I'm not finding out what i want. A few of the opening posts are good and kind of what im looking for. But mostly its just someone telling another person their way is wrong. Thats not what I want. Please read my opening post. Thats what I want this thread to be full of. Not questions or put downs. I want in-depth opinions on how and why people use it. Success or Fail. Toatl Head I found one of your post about superthrive. I see you use it for germination, but thats it. You didnt say how, why, or how much you used. I mean c'mon I'm a HORRIBLE typist and it only took me like two minutes to write my opening post. Surely you have more you can say about superthrive other than you get good results germinating with it. So now with that being said I dont believe this is a double post and I would still like to hear some more opinions on the matter.

And before anyone says it YES I have googled about superthrive No i will not do it again. I have read all I want to read from various webpages and forums found on google. I want a collective of opinions. If you are not going to add anything stated in the OP then please move on and do not post in this thread. No offense Total Head.

Superthrive is a vitamin-hormone supplement. There are threads discussing the use of vitamins, especially B, and ST is a source of them (hence the yellow color). In order to get good results, you have to use it just right. Too little does absolutely nothing and too much easily burns. Like CO2, ST is a way to push the plants a little further once they reach their limits, so the plants need to already be growing healthy for it to have an affect. Plants with leaves yellowing from deficiencies, for example, won't benefit from ST.
