Ok I have 3 plants that I experiment on. Ive been considering watering one with one gallon of water mixed with one tablespoon of rooting hormone. The search option isnt working and google isnt helping so I am unable to research what others have done.

Anyone try this? I would like some input because I dont wanna smoke poison weed or turn it hermie or something ya know.. but in the name of science... guess we'll see.

Ill do this tonight. and post before and after pics. If I get input from some people on what it may do.

I remember reading that clone gel put on stalks causes abnormal growth. It can make a plant do weird shit.

so yeah type away please

peace out

If the plants have taken root why do you feel the need to water them with rooting hormone? Are you just trying to produce a freak of nature or do you believe thjere is some sort of signifigant benefit to the roots of your plants by doing this? I'm a little puzzled.

Are you in soil? or hydro? how are you going to measure the difference in root health and foliage....ect?

ok this cannot be an exact scientific experiment due to the fact that all my plants are different strains. But I plan on doing everything the same with all my plants except the poor bastard that gets a shit ton of indole-3-butyric acid on it. I hope to see alot of chages in its growth patterns, I am also hoping for abnormal growth. I will photo document everything with a nikon D-80 and I will write any and all findings untill harvest when I will expose the roots as well and see what happened with them compared to the others. I am doing this in soil ffof. some organic nutes. 600w hps. basics. I will answer any and all questions ou guys have.
thanks for your time

I have diluted rooting powder into water for other plants when i do my cuttings. i dip the cuttings (vines) and then also water them with the hormones. i have seen a quicker taking of the pot using this method... it should work on weed.

Good Luck.

What amounts generally are you guys using.
I have very little knowledge of the actual amounts I am using. I put roughly one tablespoon per gallon and am going to use it untill 53 days then use only water for a week, then I'll flush for a week. I am thinking about using even more than a tablespoon. Maybe 3 tablespoons. What you all think? anyone used that much?

I don't know about the dosage increase.... I used a tablespoon in a 2 gallon can when I did my vines.... but I'm thinking it should be harmless to try. You may just end up wasting some of it...but I don't think it will hurt the weed. IT"S A WEED!!! :mrgreen:

oh hey, i didn't see that... You are using this in the flowering stage? I don't see how that can help. Your root sytems should be developed at that point...

I just used it on the vines to get them going....

I flowering it may cause problems. Superthrive does not work well and may stress flowering plants.

There was a thread about this on here a while ago, fdd was doing a bunch of experiments with it. He rubbed it on a stem that was scratched up a little and it swelled up a lot. I think it was somewhere in the advanced section.
