Is SUPER THRIVE organic??

Here's a link to a full-size copy of the SuperThrive bottle and packaging. It's the claims on the label that have gotten the company into the situation that they find themselves in places around the world.

A better name for this product would be SnakeOil

If you build incredible soil, you will reach for less and less "additives" as time goes by

My take is there is many other additives to use before this stuff ( EM-1, fermented plant extracts, teas, rock dusts, compost, seaweed, worm castings, molasses... ... )

it contains the artificial auxin 1-Napthyl acetic acid, a synthetic hormone that does not occur in nature. Another example of artificial auxin with the same effects on plants is agent orange. In high enough concentrations both are effective defoliants. At lower doses they stimulate roots. No wonder they tried to keep it secret.

It doesn't make your grow "90% organic", it makes your grow completely adulterated. If you use it intentionally and call yourself organic, you are not well labelled, much like this product is not well labelled.

well lucky for me i grow for my own enjoyment. i try to stay organic but im glad i didnt becuase using this has completely fixed my crop, which seemed to be a complete failure.

 

[maryjohn]

so are you going to figure out what the problem was, or just keep using agent super thrive?

 

[dbfr3sh]

i used it for 3 days thats it, a couple times i sprayed, couple drops dilluted in water and they have already started turning back green and growing more vigoriously.

no need to use it any longer. will keep for emergencies from now on.

 

[Wait...What?]

turpentine is natural too but I dont want to dump it on my plants.

superthrive works. but when they say a few drops, they mean a few drops.

i wouldn't go near the stuff if i was trying to be strict organic

but im not trying to adhere to an arbitrary standard set by politicians...but thats just me.

I think the best way of learning these plants is to work backwards:

I like when I have a nute def or something going wrong, as from problems comes knowledge. And the challenge to persevere and come out with success is always a rewarding experience

 

[conehead]

You are right,!But I use very small amounts in flower. The only problem I found is that the Superthrive will cause your plants to stretch due to the B group vitamins, at this stage I will will back off or lower dose down to a 1-2 drops per gallon.

 

[maryjohn]

It causes stretch because it is a fucking synthetic pesticide meant for defoliating plants, just like the stuff we sprayed all over Vietnam.

Politicians don't decide what is organic. Science does. It's not really arguable, as it is a matter of fact.

Nasty stuff, and unneeded in a well managed grow. An emergency is something like a fire or earthquake. Overwatering your plants is more like a fuck up.

 

[ToughGirl]

I use it on all my young plants and seedlings, never had a problem at all. The only time I use it on larger plants is immediately after transplant. And I use 1-2 drops per gallon. It's like anything else, if you use too much consider your plants fried.

As for stretching, haven't really seen that either. Maybe everyone is using too much of the stuff? Lots of farmers I know use it on their crops and have no problems with it either, which is why I use it. It says 1 drop per gallon at least 5 times on the label, and they really mean it.

its like marmite... you either love it or hate it

Would Vegemite work as well? Would it also be 'super'?

LOL

another tipoff that you are dealing with synthetic auxin that has no place in nature. i wonder what dose of agent orange gets you the same result? probably 1 drop per gallon.

guess what happens if you triple the dosage of kelp extract by accident? hint: the answer does not include your plant doing weird unnatural things counter to its genetic programming.

for my dose of crazy labels, I just get dr. bronner's.

 

[ToughGirl]

If you overdo anything it's bad. Use half a bottle of big bloom in a gallon of water and see how your plants look an hour later.

Lot's of people down things they have never used. The only unnatural thing my plants do is produce huge buds. I actually use superthrive on my mj plants, and we also started to use it at the greenhouse for small plants. I have no problems with it, healthy plants with big harvests.

Is it organic, no. But why trash something that works for people? I've posted enough pics on here to show I don't have stretching or any unnatural problems. And ALL of my plants were given superthrive a few times when they were young.

I'm confused, are you agreeing with me, but disagreeing with me saying I disagree, or do you disagree?

as I see it,

the question: is super thrive organic?

the answer: no.

riposte: but, but, but.

coup de grace: it's not organic.

 

[Alienate420]

OMG teh pwnage!

Defending the products performance, although agreeing it's not organic. So agreeing with you on one point, but disagreeing with you on another. Sorry if I've confused you.
