SEED FINISHING
FINISH PGRs
TECH TIPS
Provide day extension lighting to 14 hours under short days using mum type lights (10 foot candles). Using HID lights can promote too early of flowering.
Under proper growing conditions, PGRs are usually not needed. If warm and/or dark conditions exist, sprays of B-Nine ® WSG at 2,500 ppm are effective.
FINISH PGRs
TECH TIPS
Cool days with high light will reduce the need to apply PGRs.
If needed to control height, spray with B-Nine ® WSG at 2,500-5,000 ppm, A-Rest ® at 3-7 ppm, Bonzi ® at 10-30 ppm, or Sumagic ® at 5-10 ppm.

FINISH PGRs
TECH TIPS
It is very important to spray the plugs with Cycocel ® at 300 ppm about 10 days after sowing to help reduce hypocotyl stretch. Shorter hypocotyls will result in a stronger central stem after transplant and will reduce floppiness in the finished plant.
If grown cool and under high light, PGRs will not be necessary. Under suboptimal conditions spray with B-Nine ® WSG at 2,500-5,000 ppm or Cycocel ® at 750-1,000 ppm as needed.

TECH TIPS
Usually not required if growing cool. If conditions are warmer or darker than ideal spray with B-Nine ® at 2,500-5,000 ppm.
Keep media pH below 5.8 to help avoid Thielaviopsis infections. Under hot temperatures provide lower light levels to reduce heat stress. Do not hold Pansy plugs - transplant before plugs get root bound.
