I am about to check out that link, they are going into the fox farm ocean forest/ pro mix 2:1 mix so there is plenty of nutes in there hopefully it does the trick, I just dont want to transplant to ealry, does this sound like what I should do to yall?


thanks again by the way

Your fine to transplant now. Just make sure the soil is fairly dry and pulling away from the inside of the cup. Ive had a bad transplant because the soil was too moist. Plant is doing okay though.

A fool-proof way to transplant with dixie cups is to cut the bottom inch or two off, then place into new medium. The roots will grow downwards through the cup. Hard to fuck up that way.

Heres a great article that debunks the myth of superthrive.

Smart move. If at all possible for my next transplant, Ill cut the bottom away, then make some cuts vertically along one side, backfill the dirt, then gently snap apart the pot at its weakpoints and lift it straight up out of the dirt. No more collapsing rootballs for me .

Interesting article DaveCoulier, thanks for shareing. I don't entirely believe it, however. My first grow, I didn't have Superthrive, didn't use it. Second grow I did. All three plants were chopped within a few days of each other (they wound up flowering together). After I was done, I emptied the soil out into my yard. I found that in both of the plants from my second grow, the roots were nearly twice as large, and stronger, than those of the first. I could grasp the main stalk of the first plant and rip it out of the soil. The second grow plants, I wound up pulling the entire wad out of their three gallon buckets - roots, soil and all - couldn't rip it.
Now I'd like to mention - aside from me learning a thing or three, Superthrive was the only product difference between the two grows.
So maybe it works, and maybe it doesn't - but I'm gonna keep using it.

Id love to be able to do a side by side with superthrive w/ enough plants where you actually have a sample size that means something, but Im not able to do that. I think Ill do a search and see if anyone has done that before. Maybe there is something in it that actually helps that isn't B-1. I dunno. Anyone wanna give me some for free so I can try it someday?

Heres a link to the main page for some more good reading if you're interested:

http://www.puyallup.wsu.edu/~Linda%20Chalker-Scott/Horticultural%20Myths_files/index.html


I found a little info about a side by side study(not using marijuana though). The clones were treated with Superthrive and they showed faster root development than those without, yet there was no visible difference between plants above the surface. It was repeated multiple times and the same hold true everytime.

Heres the link if anyones interested in reading it.

2 weeks is too soon to tell. It'll probably take 4-6 weeks for pre-flowers to show.
