Does this product promote more root growth or more leaf growth... or both?!

It is intended to be a root-growth stimulant, but some of the ingredients are general nutrients, and if you have improved roots, the plant is sure to follow.

YES IT DOES WORK, just don't mix it to strong. Superthrive has an auxin called 1-naphthyl acetic acid plus vitimin B1. I've been using it for 3 years now. It is for the roots when the roots are healthy the rest of the plant is stimulated for upper secondary growth.

I've used both and greatly prefer the KLN & saw immediate results.

I got my bottle from First Rays Orchids.

That was my thought exactly! I used Superthrive for years and couldn't figure out why because I didn't see any results. Then I switched to KLN and saw almost immediate results. We're talking magnitudes of difference here. Roots all over the place and stronger growths. I'm not going back.

How often are you using the KLN?

Ross, On days that you are fertilizing, do you use the KLN as well?
