here bro
but dont thank me for the contribution this is fdd2blks experiment
i found it on rollitup..
when this was about 2 inches tall i added soil and happened to be cutting clones the same night. i had cloning gel on my finger and decided to rub it all over this seedling to see what would happen. this was about 10 days ago. look at it........
this was yesterday........
the stalk was straight before i applied the gel. i only applied it at the bottom 1/4 inch. it seems to have travel up thru the main stalk.
wow, look what i started.
my leaves are getting spots on them now. the lower stalk is getting "knotty". the main stalk is still curly. i mist the lower stalk once a night when the gel dries and turns white. this plant is on the same schedule as all the others and none of the others are getting these spotty leaves. and it's growth appears to be stunted. it's the one in the middle.
this is the original one that the stalk swelled up on. it is shorter than the others but the stalk is much thicker and it is hard like wood.

this is the clone that i put gel on after trimming a few lower side branches. it's smaller and it's leaves are all spotty.......
this is the seedling i put gel on the bottom of the stalk when it was a few nodes high. it too is shorter but the leaves look fine.......
plant next to it. same strain started at the same time.........

Wow,i saw results in bud growth quickly,i only visit my garden every 2 days because of the long drive to get there so its usually pretty easy for me to notice change, this time i was dumbfounded as soon as i walked in,the new bud growth was allmost an explosive burst in new calyx's on the bud of one plant.
The pattern of growth on this plant has allways been even all around the bud & consistent from the top down to the bottom of the bud,now the bud is lumpy as hell with new growth.
Hmmmm...............this shits got me wondering big time,i saw some differences in my other girls that were not given root tone in their water but nowhere near as dramatic as this one,the seedlings i put root tone on have not shown anything dramatic yet but have shown faster leaf production than others.
This is the test plant with a dramatic growth spurt & the seedlings.
The growth rate of the plant that was fed root tone in its water has not slowed down one bit,the other plants from this strain which were put in 12/12 at the same time are ripening up fast with lots of red hairs, but this one just keeps fatening up,i checked my notes & these were put in 12/12 on 1-27-08, so their a little over 60 days in.
This is the pic posted earlier in the thread where i started to notice the explosive growth rate.
This pic was taken early this morning & shows the continued accelerated growth,the bud growth looks lumpy & abnormal when compared with the rest of the plants from the same strain that were not fed root tone.
The bud has gained allmost 3 inches in girth using a cloth tape & measuring around the outside of the circumference of the bud.

Update on my rooting gel experiment
permalink
Okay so tons of pics...begin w/the branch in water....I have trimmed back the yellow leaves and clipped the tips of the leaves left as I do when I clone...
The rest of the experiment was conducted on my main plant...youll see the branches that I scraped the surface then applied the gel....pretty dramatic fattening of the branches I did this to....as well as the pics of the main stalk...these places actually were where drops of the gel landed after application to other parts of plant and I just rubbed them in after...see all that bulging....it looks so freaky it tripps me out..and notice all the places where I had taken clones and their nubs remain I had rubbed those w/the gel as well and now they are all fat.....then the inside of where my plant got crushed during the bend of into the screen see how its bulging all around from the crush from the gel application....trippy ass shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. I showed the top of my screen just to show you that despite all the craziness on the stem and branches the plant looks great!!

This is the comparison in my experiment with photos:
Here is the seedling before i used the root gel solution:
This is her sis, both planted at the same time, this on emerged a day or two before the above one, and it was never that dark colour or had that problem with the leaves (apart from that slit lol)
Now these are them compared 4 /5 days later, the one on the right is the one i used the solution with.
Here it is up close:
This is my first time growing so this may have happened anyway, but its a bit suprising that it has out grown the other one, when they were both on exactly the same water and lighting throughout. Whats your thoughts?
THERES WAY MORE ON THIS THREAD YOU SHOULD CHECK IT OUT AND SAY THANKS
Root gel and some experiments
i just these pics would spark your interest more
