So UGU, do you think you will continue to use this stuff?
Overall, do you think it's a good product and worth the price/effort of application?
How do you feel about the potential for ingesting trace levels of gibberellins?

Just out of curiosity, is promalin another of the hormones found in apple trees? The name seems like it should be; malic acid being an apple thing?

Stinky
Yes I think I will use this stuff for a long time I already bought the bottle and have proved to myself that it increases yield quite a bit. Really the price does not bother me $200 whatever Ive spent more on dinner and drinks. As far as ingesting it I spray them at 15 days and this batch at 19 days also so there is at least 40 days for the stuff to disapate, shit I use avid too, so if you are going to worry about anything it would be that, but I use that in the begging of veg and the start of flower just as a precautionary thing. as far as the apple tree thing I am not sure its used for them they probally have natural gibberellins so I guess yes.

day 50

final wieght 5.06 lbs
orange 17 plants at 117 grams a plant = 1989 grams total or 71 oz the 2 jeti did 140 each for 280 or 10 oz so a total increase of 282 or 10 oz all together another nice run for only $0.75

I have to post this warning though:

Functions of Gibberellins

Active gibberellins show many physiological effects, each depending on the type of gibberellin present as well as the species of plant. Some of the physiological processes stimulated by gibberellins are outlined below (Davies, 1995; Mauseth, 1991; Raven, 1992; Salisbury and Ross, 1992).

Stimulate stem elongation by stimulating cell division and elongation.

Stimulates bolting/flowering in response to long days.

Breaks seed dormancy in some plants which require stratification or light to induce germination.

Stimulates enzyme production (a-amylase) in germinating cereal grains for mobilization of seed reserves.

Induces maleness in dioecious flowers (sex expression).

Can cause parthenocarpic (seedless) fruit development.

Can delay senescence in leaves and citrus fruits.

Not to mention the biggest fear of all:

Inhibits bud formation

faithless, it's all about the dosage as I understand...
So just know what you're doing.
