What it is, according to the manufacturer:
Superthrive is a 50-in-one vitamin/hormone-enriched concentrated liquid (I think it comes in other forms as well) that can be used to avoid transplant (re-potting) shock, give temperate plants a solid kick-off in the Spring, revive plants, and so on. It can be added to fertilizer, but is itself NOT a fertilizer.
On Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/SuperThrive-4-oz/dp/B0009DV3HM/
Does anyone use this for CP's? I know people who have used it successfully and I know several CP growers who swear by this stuff (Equilibrio CP's is one, and the US Dept of Agriculture also uses it), so I thought getting more information into a thread would be beneficial for everyone. I have a bottle and plan to use it in the Spring. I'm curious about:
1) What concentration do you use? 1/4 tsp per gallon, or 1 drop per small cup, is "recommended" on the box - I don't think this would change for CP's.
2) What CP's have you used it successfully on? Any CP's this stuff is no good for?
3) How long do you soak the roots before re-potting? Do you just drop the whole plant into a bucket of it or do you need to be careful to only soak the roots?
