Fertilizers for Indoor Plants

Just recently started getting into fertilizers, wanted to know if foliage pro can be used along side. with super thrive ? Or used by itself? Realized SuperThrive is just nutrients rather than actual plant food so was wondering for the use of SuperThrive as well. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #Fertilizer #Hydroponics #PlantCorner #helpme #

It’s worth noting the primary nutrients are 9-3-6 and 0-0-0.

Super Thrive does actually contain less than 1% of each of these ingredients which is how they can claim 0-0-0. Super Thrive also claims it can be used in conjunction with fertilizers.

That being said, if you are already using a fertilizer like Foliage Pro, it’s only worth using Super Thrive on the plants that actually need the boost in what it provides.
It's generally not a good idea to mix fertilizers outside the family they are offered with if any. A fertilizer is made for the uses on the label. Just wouldn't recommend it at all. I'm just saying...πŸ’«βœ¨οΈπŸ’₯❀️‍πŸ”₯πŸƒπŸ™ƒβ™ΎοΈβš•οΈπŸ˜
I agree with @Beeps on this one I've used super thrive along with my normal fertilizer (Neptune's harvest fish and seaweed fertilizer) and it works great on trying to get plants to develop a better root system.
Building on @SpikeKing19 think of SuperThrive as a root stimulant, and foliage pro as a fertilizer. Long term usage for stimulants has been show to cause issues like stunted growth or kill the plant, so use it while rooting and maybe once a month.
Thank you for responding will definitely be taking into consideration what everyone has mentioned. @user785b1e99 @Beeps @Alinaa @SpikeKing19 @SuperblyLilac
