Review: Root starter - Product works great
Review: I'm impressed so far - I went with rapid start instead of super thrive because a.) gauranteed analysis and b.) I read a few things about stimulants causing deformities in plants longterm (like 1 year+). I haven't tried super thrive, so I can't compare. But I'm impressed by rapid start. I don't use root or clone mixes because I've never seen a need, but this definately changed my mind. I'm transitioning my calatheas to leca. So their soil root systems are (*mostly*) intact. And I was worried they either a.) would deteriorate in water or b.) wouldn't grow water roots at all. I'm really impressed by the water root growth I've seen over the last three days alone. I was anticipating the calatheas (my white fusion in particular) wouldn't take kindly to the transition, but they're doing so well! I thought it'd take a few weeks to a month to see secondary water roots, but I see the... buds? forming for secondaries today! It's pretty rare that a product will get me to change my tune on a whole category of products, but this one definately did. I'm excited to pot them way faster than I ever would've guessed was possible! I'm definately going to try adding this when I start seeds in the spring. Especially for my strawberries!
