Best Vertical Growth Stopping Product?

Hi All,

Im wondering whats your favorite vertical growth stopping products?

Anyone have any feedback who has used: Phospherload, Bushmaster or Dr.Nodes(aka Dr.No) ?

Can't you just lower your lights to stop stretching?

I like, good genetics and keeping the light close, and as big as possible.

I personally prefer PreBloom since it is organic and works great. Lowering the lights will not stop vertical growth in lots of strains, you will just end up with burnt tops. I have even watched OG Kush grow past the light in an indoor garden. Stretching and vertical growth are not the same thing either. Stretching occurs when your lights are too high and the plant grows too fast.

That was why genetics was a big part of my answer, you are right, but not all "OG Kush" are the same, i believe there is currently 15-20 different cuts of it.

Hah, more like 50+. We were discussing it the other day... getting worse than Kush.

Hey Purplehazin,

I do keep my light as close as possable as most of us do, means most lumins out of your bulb according to this chart:

But there are many strains that are just to tall for alot of peoples flowering area`s. Also, they are used for vertical growing systems.

My bulb resides 7' from the ground, tops can get to 6' and the are in 1' 5gal pales so the plants can only really be 5' max.


Im investigating the products out there such as Phospherload, Bushmaster or Dr.Nodes(aka Dr.No) because they advertise:

Phosphoload utilizes a new technology which extracts unique isolates from coal derived humates. These Humatic Isolates are powerful rare earth elements that when combined with Phospholipid Technology, unlocks the floodgates for a fast & powerful flowering response. The Phospholipid Technology then incenses or switches the flowering receptor sites on, which then allows these Humatic Isolates to exert their powerful flowering effect.
Plants flowered with Phosphoload stop their upward growth almost immediately & start to form numerous, tight & heavy clusters of flowers that continue for many weeks.
Growers who use Phosphoload can expect larger heavier yields of flowers with an average yield increase of 25 to 30%.

Dr. Node's is a specially formulated nutrient that increases the number of internodes, shortens the length between them, and focuses plants energy on lateral growth. This powerful nutrient will also tighten up buds and maximize yields.

Bush Master is a high-potency formula that uses kelp as an activator to lock in plant height, a must for the limited space of indoor gardens. Also increases the density of indoor plants by forcing the flowering of the entire stalk and limbs. When applied, vertical height and limb length stops. The new growth comes from within the plant and within the established flowers creating huge clusters. For optimum performance it is recommended using Bush Master at the beginning of flowering. At that time, stored energy is flowing upward to the developing flowers. Application of Bush Master lays a detour in the path of the sugars and forces them to the sides.

Something that can stop almost all vertical growth in 2-3 after use can open up alot of strains I otherwise could not grow

Any info from people who have actually used these products is all im looking for thanks!
