yes! GA 20% and you had better be bloody careful with this stuff. google gibberallic acid and research. test on another plant or several. there is 1 major factor using GA that is really touchy = CONTROL

use it to strong and you will make your plant sterile, a little less strong and it can grow 3 feet in 2 weeks. i would give your plant a shot of humic or fulvic acid instead. GH has rare earth or the liquid diamond nectur. AN has H2 and F1. but be careful with the AN F1 use at 1/3 strenght. its concentrated.

Again if you had read my post you'd know that I am doing this in a scientific fashion testing different PPMs with a control group, I am testing 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100 ppm of GA3 on the Purple Indica. Hopefully it will work well...if not, then I know that I'll just have to be patient and there really is no way to cut corners

I've used a GA a bit but I didn't like it (makes the plants too spindly)
have you tried foliar feeding with growth plus(aka nitrozyme), fulvic acid and liquid karma?

Yes. Im going to add 85% Chitin to that mix and see what it does
