If you click the link that the word Bushmaster is in my post, it will send you to the thread which discusses the product.

Bushmaster is a very powerful plant hormone. It stops vertical growth dead in its tracks for that plant. It will do it pretty much for all time, so if you are planning on taking a clone off of it later -- then you had better take the clone before you add the hormone to your water.

Bushmaster forces all growth of the plant to be horizontal and the plant then bushes out - and yes it definitely can add to flower weight. Vertical growth, however, stops. Your main colas are not getting any taller - but they will get fatter.

Please read the thread, beginning to end. It needs to be used cautiously and properly. Treat it with the respect it deserves and it will serve you well.

Maybe I will try it next time but it looks like the stretch has stopped hopefully. Where can I get bushmaster?

Grow shops or online. There are some organic growers that are quite ... religious in their objections to it. It probably contains a synthetic hormone which acts as a plant growth regulator (PGR) known as paclobutrazol. This stuff isn't all that great-- but used at the concentrations people run it at (1-2ml/g in a rez for 12-36 hours) it's harmless.

If you have smoked commercial weed, odds are VERY likely you have not only smoked it, but you have smoked it often. (It breaks down when burned). Cash croppers use it because it can reduce grow times and increase harvest weight by up to 15-35% per plant.

Don't freak out on the toxicity levels. Lab rats were dying when fed more than FIVE TIMES their own body weight with this stuff. At the miniscule levels it's used at in hydroponics, it's trivial.

But that does not stop the organic folks from getting quite passionate in their objections.

Short strokes: it works.

Longer strokes: use it very sparingly. It can make buds swell very large and this can cause real problems with mold. It can also suppress terpene production so the smell/taste can be affected. Less is more.

It does sound amazing I have a lot of clones of the stuff I grow.for myself I've had this plant for 2 year and I'm.still not tired of it. I would really like to see how much faster it.will finish with bushmaster and if I could make this strain more sea of green friendly....as for the chemical part I don't give a crap as long as after my two week flush its not there anymore I'm cool with it I will definantly give it a try I like trying new things with my.plants....
 
It looks like I'm gonna have to take the glass out to make room wish I didn't have to there is a lot of heat above that glass candidates I'm not sure how I can handle it without the glass but the lights have.there own PC fan pulling air out of that area so it might be enough to keep it all cool after I take the glass out....
 
21st day flower now I'm 99% sure the stretch has stopped u can see some of the flowers showing will post bud shots when they fill in somemore.......
