Can you mix fertilizer and Super Thrive together when watering?

It's not really a good idea. ST is so powerful that there is no telling
what will really happen, despite what is on the label (hidden in the little
text on that label is really a twenty seven page disclaimer). Even at the
one drop per gallon rate, it should be mixed and applied only with rubber
gloves, goggles, and a disposable Tyvex suit. Thoroughly rinse out all
containers using the triple rinse method, and use the rinse water to treat
plants as well to avoid toxic remains getting into streams, sewers, and the
aquifer.

FWIW: Science magazine recently reported a followup of the cold fusion
reaction studies conducted at Cornell. It seems that the reason that no one
could repeat the experiments is that the original researcher had failed to
watch his hands after handling ST. This failure in scientific protocol
resulted in his dismissal and he is now working as a reseach marketing
expert at the Vitamin Institute in Hollywood CA. His comment on being
fired, was "Well, at least my tomatoes are bigger".

There was at least one report of a severely deformed alligator found in a
Brooklyn sewer not far downstream from where Ima Doinbetter flushed a whole
bottle of ST down the drain, after mistakenly believing the expiration date
had passed. State officials in New Jersey continue to monitor the
situation, but according to one EPA source, "In NJ, how could you tell the
difference?"

Meanwhile, the ocean going science ship Glomore Explorer has reported an
increase of heavy hydrogen and phosphorescent algae off the coast of
Martha's Vineyard.

So, the short answer is, please, please don't mix fertilizer with ST, if
you care anything at all about the planet.
