Default Superthrive question

How do you use Superthrive on an orchid with little or no roots to make it root??? I've read a little about it but have no idea how to go about it.

I don't use superthrive directly on the new roots. I use a root stimulator. Using superthrive every time you water is a great way to add vitamins and minerals. Use along with your normal fertilizer regimen.

Cheryl, SuperThrive does contain a rooting hormone, as well.

If you're trying to stimulate root growth in a plant with none, I mix about a teaspoon in a gallon of tepid water, and soak the entire plant for a couple of hours.
