I’ve read that ga3 is best used on seeds before… but perhaps not always, or perhaps it’s just a rumor? Someone did an experiment, and the seeds hit with ga3 didn’t germinate more reliably, but did have a much higher death rate after germination. As high as 100%.

If anyone else has done any testing with it, I’d be interested to see the results.
It depends on the strength I guess. I have some in the fridge but don’t plan on using it for anything. I have not had the joy of germinating old precious seeds so far but I’d probably go with H2O2 or KNO3.
I plant my seeds directly in soil and add water. 
What ppm did the plant get sprayed with? I have a deep chunk that I would like to try this on!
i cant comment on the ppm that produced that hydra-monster of a plant, but i am planning on testing ga3 vs sts. generally people apply between 50ppm → 250ppm of ga3 to retard the ethylene pathway. it makes them go bonkers with growth as well as push out male flowers.
I have a real good deep chunk that absolutely doesn’t want to grow very much and wanted to do a clone and see if the GA3 would do something like what happened with stretch the Wonder Weed you tried it on 
so i wasnt the person who posted that photo, but i have used ga3. if youre in veg, itll retard growth for a bit. itll seem like that plant has just stopped growing. then youll see it start pushing out a crazy amount of branching. itll look like a revegged plant, all spindly and gnarly. at this point i grab a couple of branches im interested in, start training, then cull all the rats nest thats left over.
if you have a clone that just doesnt want to grow much, ga3 might not be the right approach. itll stunt her for a couple of weeks
@Mr.Sparkle I wonder if the “willow” bud structure has anything to do with an overproduction of GA3 in the meristems?
Or just how it affected the plant, honestly no idea.
The deep chunk is very short and super bushy so thought I would try it and see what it does. Not sure if I were to run it in flower and give it to see if it stretches and possibly herms can use pollen to make seeds so running another with it might be possible. Not sure what the exact process would be but will need to read up on it.
Refer to post from Feb 24…
Simple answer, don’t bother with GA3.
Can I add that pic to my album? Ha!
There is a research paper with results at 20 ppm iirc.
Too much no balls I hear.
Sure no problem 
Yeah I’ve used ga3 several times, only a few times balls formed at all & never did I actually get any pollen from any of them. Just shit loads of hight growth, long node spacing & overall health of plant went to shit.
Personal opinion, Male + Female = Quality Genetics I stopped using chemicals a while ago.
Totally agree but don’t have a male and waiting on RSC to get some seeds but nothing yet. Plus wanted to see if I could get some growth out of it just short and bushy so…
spray them with a 100ppm solution for five days, then toss into flowering. two weeks later put the seed producing mothers in the same
Post photos of results plz 
Interested to see, that’s a shitload of ga3!
There is an older paper that shows results with a much smaller dose. That’s the trouble with ga3, dosage.
I’m trying my own experiments in this area. Will share if I get a positive result.
I have been watching and definitely looks like the petioles have stretched! I have two Deepchunk and the one I flowered last year seemed to be the favorite that everyone has tried. I have been growing under LED’s and produced that good old smoke I remember back in the early eighties. What a great feeling to have found it again. I have some GA3 coming and will mix at 30 ppm and see what it does. Have another deepchunk growing outside and it is growing very slow but will pull some clones off it when it gets more height. Maybe I will get lucky and it will be a male!
Believe it or not they do great in hydro but produce half of what the hybrids do but still grow way faster than in soil or at least that is my experience. Use Dr. Bugbee formula so all good.
