Description

Common name: Gibberellic acid Product category: Plant growth regulator Chemical name: (3S, 3aR, 4S, 4aS, 7S, 9aR, 9bR, *2S)*7, **-dihydroxy**-methyl**-methylene**-oxoperhydro*4a, *-methano*9b, *-propeno[1, *-b]furan**-carboxylic acid Alt: (3S, 3aR, 4S, 4aS, 6S, 8aR, 8bR, *1S)*6, **-dihydroxy**-methyl***-methylene**-oxo*4a, *-ethano*3, 8b-prop**-enoperhydroindeno[1, *-b]furan**-carboxylic acid CAS Number: ******5 Molecular formula: C*9H*2O6 appearance: Crystalline solid. application Mode of action: Acts as a plant growth regulator on account of its physiological and morphological effects in extremely low concentrations. Translocated. Generally affects only the plant parts above the soil surface. Uses: Has a variety of applications, to improve fruit setting of clementines and pears (especially William pears); to loosen and elongate clusters and increase berry size in grapes; to control fruit maturity by delaying development of the yellow colour in lemons; to reduce rind stain and retard rind ageing in navel oranges; to counteract the effects of cherry yellows virus diseases in sour cherries; to produce uniform seedling growth in rice; to promote elongation of winter celery crop; to induce uniform bolting and increase seed production in lettuce for seed; to break dormancy and stimulate sprouting in seed potatoes; to extend the picking season by hastening maturity in artichokes; to increase the yield in forced rhubarb; to increase the malting quality of barley; to produce brighter-coloured, firmer fruit, and to increase the size of sweet cherries; to increase yields and aid harvesting of hops; to reduce internal browning and increase yields of Italian prunes; to increase fruit set and yields of tangelos and tangerines; to improve fruit setting in blueberries; to advance flowering and increase the yield of strawberries; and also a variety of applications on ornamentals. Application rates up to *0 g/a per application, depending.
