does anyone know anything about applying hormones to your plants to increase yield? i read it somewhere i think from growkind.com

Yeah, i think that birth control pills have the female hormone in them that make your ladies get really big and fast. But i haven't done it though, some tomato farmer tried it and got fat tomatos but little is know about the side effects.

Last thing you want is to grow tits from smoking your weed only way to find out is to try it on your plants then sell or give your buds to a mate and if they grow some titys then flame them if not let me know as i am keen to try it on my crop

The hormones of a plant are a little different than what we all think of as a hormone. The link above gives some good answers. However, to my knowledge there is no surefire way to apply hormones to get your plants to produce more. If anything, it would be to apply cytokinens, which would stimulate shoot growth. Many of the descriptions of the hormones (especially in those links) are VERY generalized. They do not for sure do what they are being said to do, researcher have just observed those reactions over time, and thousands of exeriments, and many different plants.

The only applicable hormone that I would recommend would be ethylene, which can be used at the end to hasten ripening. This gas is used in commercial fruit production, where the fruits are picked unripe, and exposed to ethylene either during or after shipping, so that they are ripe in the store, and not before. if youtry this, be careful about dosage, it is VERY temperature sensitive.

hey hector... why wouldn't you want to grow tits on your weed, they grow "balls" as everyone puts it, so why not the rest? BC pills give us girls estrogyn, the more we are getting the better mood we are in.. heheh! I know that the last 7 pills of the pack is a plain sugar pill, no need for us to take it, so can we use them without growing body parts?
