You could also try your local Horticultural supply store (if you have one in your area).

[mosfetti]

Thank you.
My local Horticultural supply stores are useless, so I will order online.

Make up mixture. 1 gal. Water X gibberellic acid = 100 ppm
Spray plants for 10 days under 12 hour lighting.
Male flowers should appear and start to release pollen.

So is 100ppm a good mixture? think I have read in another thread someone saying 1000ppm.
Any other mixture you guys use and its working? Is outdoor any different?
Thanks

i've used 100ppm with great results...i would spray them a week or two before switching to 12/12 and then continue to spray them 2 weeks afterwards...also, you may need to mix another batch every few days because GA breaks down easily...and try to keep it away from light

 

[Henry1011]

I will be using it outdoors, so maybe could use stronger mix and fewer spraying (less visits)?

 

[englishrick]

how do you mix it without a ppm meter???????

gibberellic acid?

gibberellic acid?

Our local farm supply "peacefull valley farm supplies" sells this product but states it's used to thin clusters of hopps and grape vines to make larger fruits on fewer clusters.....It was kind of expensive so I didn;t buy it, but if it will make a female self pollen female seed that's worth the cost! Has anyone seen this through and got viable seed?

 

[englishrick]

i wish smeone sold it ready to use,,,,,,,,,,,i cant figure out what to buy, an how to mix it???????????

any help??

rick, your water is say 200ppm, add ga until your at 300ppm (300-200=100ppm)

 

[Mr. Stinky]

get the 90% from http://www.super-grow.biz/GibberellicAcid.jsp and follow the direction on the chart for 100ppm. use 91% iso to disolve it, and spray it everyday just as the lights come on till you see the staminate flowers. 5 days is probably enuf spraying, but i kept going till the male flowers showed. dont mix it stronger or weaker. and dont spray more than once a day. just follow the directions.

 

[englishrick]

ok...ok....nice one guys, but let me slow this down

i dont have a PPM meter, so il just be following direction....

i have a large bottle of 99.9% iso,,,,



why do i have to desolve the G.Asid in iso?......

could someone explain this as if they was explaining it to a child
