Superthrive is non-toxic, while it is natural, it cannot be certified as organic because some of the ingredients are made synthetically. In order to label a product as organic, all ingredients must follow OMRI guidelines. WHY SHOULD I USE SUPERTHRIVE? Growing and Maintenance: Studies have shown that adverse weather conditions and over-growing can diminish soil fertility. Superthrive encourages the natural hormones that plants normally make themselves under optimum conditions. It gives plants a better chance of achieving their full growth potential. Transplanting: Transplanting can result in what's called transplant stress, which can negatively affect a tree's health through loss of leaves and damaged roots. Many trees that experience transplant stress eventually die. Use Superthrive before planting by soaking root balls and afterward by drenching to prevent and treat transplant shock and insure survival. WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM SUPERTHRIVE? Customers commonly report faster growth and germination, vivid colors, higher produce yield, stronger roots, and more vigorous and robust plant life. -- You can expect consistency. CAN I USE SUPERTHRIVE ON EDIBLES SUCH AS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES? Yes. Since it is non-toxic, Superthrive is a great food crop booster. CAN I APPLY SUPERTHRIVE AS A BARE ROOT SOAK OR SEED GERMINATION? Yes. Ball or Burlapped, and Bare Roots all benefit from Superthrive. Soak the roots for at least 15 minutes until bubbling stops. May soak up to overnight. -- For large trees: the empty hole may be filled with Superthrive water prior to lowering the tree into the ground. After lowering the tree into the bath, let bubbles cease prior to surrounding it with soil. Seeds may also be soaked prior to planting or saturate the soil at the time of planting. CAN I APPLY SUPERTHRIVE AS A FOLIAR SPRAY? Absolutely. You can apply the mix with a commercial sprayer or garden hose - using a hose-end or syphon-mixer proportioner. Make sure you spray on the underside where the leaf is most receptive. CAN I APPLY SUPERTHRIVE IN MY COMMERCIAL SPRAYER? Yes. It is an ideal method. Just add Superthrive to your water or liquid fertilizer at the 3 ounces per 100 gallons ratio. CAN I APPLY SUPERTHRIVE IN MY IRRIGATION SYSTEM? Yes. For tank systems with an attached proportioner, add Superthrive at the 3 ounces per 100 gallon ratio as needed. Follow the manufacturer's directions to achieve the above ratio. CAN I USE SUPERTHRIVE FOR HYDROPONIC GROWING? Yes. Just add the standard per-gallon dose (3 ounces per 100 gallons of water) each time you add new water to the system. CAN I USE SUPERTHRIVE WITH FERTILIZER? Yes-and we recommend combining both, Superthrive and additional fertilizer for ease of application. While you will use Superthrive more frequently, both can be applied at the same time in one easy application. CAN I USE SUPERTHRIVE WITH PESTICIDES, HERBICIDES, FUNGICIDES, AND/OR INSECTICIDES? No. We recommend applying them on different days since the purpose of these products differ so greatly. SHOULD I WATER AFTER USING SUPERTHRIVE? No. The initial Superthrive application is sufficient in all but the most arid climates. We recommend waiting at least 24 hours before new watering. WHEN WILL I SEE SUPERTHRIVE RESULTS? While some of our customers report overnight rejuvenation of sagging plants restored to their full beauty, most situations provide results in 10 to 14 days.

On most plants, using too high a ratio of Superthrive to water will only result in a waste of money - and Superthrive. For tender-shooter plants and vines, excessive Superthrive could weaken stems. But don't worry. If you over-applied Superthrive, flood the soil with water to dilute the solution. CAN I INJECT SUPERTHRIVE DIRECTLY INTO MY TREE? No. Superthrive is intended to nurture via roots and leaves by drenching and foliar spraying. CAN I USE SUPERTHRIVE IN AQUAPONICS? Yes. As it is non-toxic, you can add it to koi ponds.
