I have a question, when should you use a additive that has palco In it? I know it's for stopping the stretch but from what I read some say 2,3,4,5th week waiting that long isnt most of the stretch done by that far into flower?

The latest we typically apply is week two. Really depends on how big the plants are. We have sprayed a week before stretch with very good results.
.you only need to apply once.

LMFAO..mr garden stud tells us "kids" we can't afford his over priced diluted liquid paclo. Why would I pay $178 a liter for something I could mix myself for less than $10 a liter?

Sorry mr. Know it all.. We mix our own PGR and are experienced to know that it's actually diaminizode that packs on the weight more than paclo does.

We buy paclobuytrozol in powder form, 98% purity. 40 grams for $50, not +$150 for a liquid bottle.

Little dash of paclo, and about 10x more diaminizode ---- B-nine WSG (yeah, UB shopping at an ag supply store doesn't make you unique amoung growers)---, dissolve in med grade rubbing alcohol, add to deionized water...

BAM! Phosphoload for about $7 a liter.
I'm sorry the Texas school system didn't teach you how to covert PPM to grams per liter. You just go ahead and buy your overpriced, ready to spray snake oil.
Would you mind providing a tek on how to mix your own paclo? Bush Load is no longer being produced.

Paclobutrazol wp from eBay or anywhere really.
Diaminazode (sp?) Also from ebay. $100 total gets you a LOT of finished product. Like 10 gallons.

Google around I can't remember the exact grans per liter. It's very small. There I a post where they have the ppm of both that is in phosphoload.

That is how many grans you put in a liter of hot water.

Shake.

Done

I thought I read somewhere that paclo wasn't water-soluble and needed to be mixed with rubbing alcohol before being mixed with water. Is that wrong?
