First of all pure gibberellic acid is a solid and would need to be dissolved to affect the plant. That being said it is unlikely that using even a saturated solution would give desired results on a plant. Usually GA is found in PPM in plants so it would be best to keep the concentration low because with hormones more is less. Giving large amounts of hormones usually has the opposite affect than a lower concentration would. I hope that you can understand
my suggestion for future plant experiments would be to measure the nutrient density of the plants using a refractometer. also, a taste test so that people understand how high brix/nutrient density directly correlates to deliciousness.
nutrient density is measured with electrical conductivity since those are salts , they increase conductivity hence you can measure that very good with voltmeter ironically , i dont know what is refractometer
@@dedskinprodcerdj4273 I think he means the soluble solids in the radish(human nutrients) aka sugar concentration. Though sweet radishes seem like an odd desire.
Kind of. There was large amounts of rainfall when I was doing the experiment and the plants were outside... I think the spilt was technicly due to osmotic pressure and lots of water in the soil.
I've tried these kinds of experiments, but it seems like all the plant regulators have little or no effect on the growth of relatively fast growing vegetables. I've found that well aerated soil, adequate micro/ macro nutrients, good sun & water matter more than anything else. When you do an experiment like that, I would suggest growing many plants due to the natural variation from seedling to seedling.
AWESOME!!! This video is so great! I have just dived in to this world of plant hormones and i just can't get enough information about this subject so it's the great to see at least 1 hormone in actual use and seeing with your own eyes the effects. I myself are planning to buy some growth hormones like gibberellin, Auxin and maybe cytokinin and applying them to my indoor oak tree that i have grown from acorn. I am just juicing on the idea that i could alter it's growth. I am also very interested about GMO plants and what kind of "Green hulks" we are capable of creating with CRISPR etc.
Thank you so much for the great video. I just ordered Gibberellic acid for my super dwarf Cavendish banana, to see if I can reverse the dwarfism. How often did you spray your plants with the acid solution? I am trying to figure out the best concentration and how often I should spray to get the best results and not harm the plant.
I’ve used the gibberellic acid a couple times in a couple different science classes that I took in middle school and high school because at the time we were growing beans or corn in class and it was to show us how it affects the plants growth.
Plant matter and food waste mostly. Any plant waste from my kitchen such as peels, coffee grounds, rotten fruit/vegetables, and any other uncooked plant waste that my house generates including leaves, grass clippings, and sticks. It all gets put in the pile and every spring we dump most of it into our garden.
I know you made this video years ago, but I was wondering if you experienced a difference in taste in the radishes using the different growing methods?
Have you done any similar experiments with auxin and cytokinin hormones? Do you have a website or blog, and how can we reach you to discuss this in more detail?
all of these chemicals are used industrially indoors. They essentially are to be inoculated into the soil indoors because they are not naturally occurring indoors. ya wanna read whatever potting soil ya use, or test your compost, in order to see what you need to add for your plants, otherwise people tend to just get yields close to what you see in the control. Add em all cuz the plant needs them all!!!!! (now make sure you understand ratios though, for example, the amino acid serine displays an antagonistic effect on the cytokinin kinetin.
You can reverse dwarf plant breeding as many of those breeds simple lack the genes that produce normal levels of hormones, the GA3 can top up those hormones to a normal balance, making a normal size plant.
Are you sure your iron results are good as you used iron sulfate? Sulfates are a used in fertilizers all the time. Iron sulfate isn't used but with your use it still would provide sulfate and, with that, sulfur.
Iron n compost looks the most natural. Ga is ok I'm glad the some leaves have been eaten by insects so that means it's not poisonous.( I'm growing lime plants for fruit , also for leaves to feed lime caterpillars ) .
When using Gibberellic Acid you should only apply it once, otherwise if you apply it to many times during the grow season you will get the opposite effect of the GA3 hormone growth.
I have heard of lanolinic acid. It is supposed to cause stems to bend when applied to only one side. I am not sure how available or expensive it is though.
Realistically I only used around 1-2 grams of iron sulfate total. I would have gone with more but I thought I was going to burn the plants roots. If I did use more then it could have changed the results.
what kind of lighting were the seedlings exposed to? Also, once they germinated and were plants with leaves, what kind of lighting did they need? I talking about indirect or direct sun or partly shaded after few hours in sun. I would like to know. Great video and very relaxing fountain.
Its grate , i apriciate ur experiment , but there is a week point, normaly there is a diferent bitween seed to seed growing speed of radish, so u should increes tha number of post in one kind. (My english not good)
Question, I read that Ironite is mined from super toxic mines in super toxic ways and that if you put it on your lawn or garden it contaminates your soil with all kinds of nasties. People have been taking them to court over it. So I'd like to be able to use iron, but have you found a better source? Where do u get it?
The thing is: when I did this experiment, I didn't control, or even measure the concentrations. It's a blatant flaw of this experiment and unfortunately there's nothing I can do about now.
I might just be me, but wouldn't it be better and much more scientifically sound for you to start with some clones? By using seeds you allow into your experiment the possibility and in fact high probability that minor genetic or otherwise variations will in fact affect outcome. Pick a nice 'mom', take some clones, and try it all again. The results will be much more sound. Still, great job! Keep it up.
Do you have the methodology of exactly how you did the experiment? Such as exact amounts, mixtures for the compost, etc. Could you send it to my email if possible?
Oh this is 8 years old... well for any viewers planning on similar experiments I'd like to say: this is a nice organized attempt with good recording of importance details,(even the suppliers matter in case they have a bad batch or unlabeled additives. The cultivar of radish should also have been recorded.) but just the same it is a poorly designed experiment. With absolutely no replication you cannot know the significance of any observed differences as some uncontrolled variable could easily be the cause of the difference; especially when working with biology. Even the natural variation among several untreated radishes could be enough to account for the observed variances, without 10-20 radishes in each group you can't know. And without 2+ of each group/pot (or re-running the experiment, preferably in a different location and pots in a different order) you can't know that there wasn't some other outside variable acting on one of the pots.
And so you can see why most experiments are either phased or limited to very few variables, the test matrix and overall size grows in an exponential fashion. Especially when you start including different concentrations. Just for fun i started to design a seed priming experiment to cover the effect on germination of a wide range of solutions and even narrowing it down based on prior research the size quickly grew to the edge of what would be unmanageable very quickly.(based on estimated time to evaluate germination and count seeds in each petri dish) 10 seeds per dish(20 would be best), only 1 time frame, 2 types of seed, 5 solution concentrations and 16 compounds [plus water primed and unprimed controls] 2 full replications. And I am up to 328 dishes and 3280 seeds. Even evaluating and recording data at an average of 1 seed per second that is a full hour, add an hour for each extra variety xOR time frame.(quadruple it to add both a variety and a time frame) When i say a phased experiment you look for a very wide but coarse set of data on the first experiment, ie 4-5 solution concentrations covering maybe 3 orders of magnitude(depending on what you are testing and existing research) and then make a second experiment that looks for more refined data but in a narrower overall range based on the results of the prior experiment, again only uses 4-5 concentrations but places them much closer together. Thus you use only 10 concentrations to find an answer to within +-50% within a scope of 3 orders of magnitude rather than needing to test all 19 concentrations to brute force that whole range of solutions to the same precision. In addition to cutting the total tests in half this further breaks the reduced set into two parts so the total workload on each is about 1/4, especially important if the experiment is time sensitive. If it takes a week to evaluate a field of radishes then your experiment fails because the last evaluated will have an extra week to grow, you may want to cut it down to less than one day, even then depending on what you are testing and the weather a hot afternoon sun may cause substantial variation from the cool morning and getting it done in an hour may be appropriate.(or finding a way to use extra labor, like having a bunch of people harvest in one hour; box, label, and move to cold humid storage where you can take a few hours to examine.)
To this day this is one of the most impressive and to-the-point videos in this platform. Wow
Agreed
yes. thanks to little dude, probably man now lol, he put me on years ago and have been experimenting with all the hormones. thanks mate
Please do another giberellic acid experiment! By far this is the most informative and ultimately the best giberellic acid related video out there.
Thanks so very much for all your patience and time with this. Gives a very very reasonable insight to us rookies.
Great experiment!
Thank you for this experiment! Was incredibly interesting and has inspired me to try an experiment of my own.
you did really really great. thanks

my suggestion for future plant experiments would be to measure the nutrient density of the plants using a refractometer. also, a taste test so that people understand how high brix/nutrient density directly correlates to deliciousness.
maybe also have 2 or 3 of each plant and chemicals instead of just 1 control with 5 chemicals. Do it with 3 control plants and 15 chemical plants
nutrient density is measured with electrical conductivity since those are salts , they increase conductivity hence you can measure that very good with voltmeter ironically , i dont know what is refractometer

thanks for the pilot experiment! take u a lot of time! Ur hardworking is appreciated!!
Nice experimenting video! Thank you
I'm glad to see a new video from you. These are interesting results
Kind of. There was large amounts of rainfall when I was doing the experiment and the plants were outside... I think the spilt was technicly due to osmotic pressure and lots of water in the soil.
You are very inspiring to me. Keep up the great work!
Very good video
this video is the best how to I have ever seen
Nice test experiment on GA3. Helpful.
Great experiment. Thank you.

Very useful experiment. Thanks.
Which one would have most nutrients?
Which one would have best flavor?
Which one would you eat most?
Thanks again.
Thank you for the video. So in conclusion, I should use Gibberellic Acid and fertilizer to get the optimal growth.
Thanks for the effort. Very educational.

best ive seen yet , good job , i can only wish of 2 examples of all , just to be safe but this will do
Thank you anyway for you studies
A science experiment! Cool..

Nice Work Dude. Great video. Well done !!
This is a great video. Very well done, and has some great information.
this was great work. GA + Fert gets a tick.
Good..great work
I bought some too from United Nuclear. It's a good company to support
I’ve used the gibberellic acid a couple times in a couple different science classes that I took in middle school and high school because at the time we were growing beans or corn in class and it was to show us how it affects the plants growth.
Good experiment. But, I could not figure out whether the fertilizer/ G acid one is the way to go or the G acid only.

I will use Gibberellic acid this week (28/11/22) in my potatoes and meet the results later. Thank you.
potassium nitrate and ga 3 ?
I know you made this video years ago, but I was wondering if you experienced a difference in taste in the radishes using the different growing methods?
Fantastic Demonstration,,incredible,,teaching method !
So which one of those plant win??
and why did they win???

Will you share what to use as a pesticide and insecticide? Thanks
Nice presentation.
I think I used 300 ppm applied folarly once per day. I'm not sure if you can reverse a breed in trait from the plant but it will grow more.
You can reverse dwarf plant breeding as many of those breeds simple lack the genes that produce normal levels of hormones, the GA3 can top up those hormones to a normal balance, making a normal size plant.

gibberellic acid is natural too. it occurs naturally in plants. here it's just being applied in higher amounts than naturally occuring
When using Gibberellic Acid you should only apply it once, otherwise if you apply it to many times during the grow season you will get the opposite effect of the GA3 hormone growth.

direct full sun
hi, im doing an experiment and i want to add instead of the iron, a different kind of plant hormone other than the GA, what do you suggest?
What will happened if we spray Cytokinin on cotton crop?
If anybody wants to submit ideas for more experiments than please post them in the comments and I will try to do them.
Its grate , i apriciate ur experiment , but there is a week point, normaly there is a diferent bitween seed to seed growing speed of radish, so u should increes tha number of post in one kind. (My english not good)
The radish seem to have received erratig watering..... since they have split, that usually is brought on by erratic watering.
Very helpful ty so much
Question, I read that Ironite is mined from super toxic mines in super toxic ways and that if you put it on your lawn or garden it contaminates your soil with all kinds of nasties. People have been taking them to court over it.
So I'd like to be able to use iron, but have you found a better source? Where do u get it?
Can you share how you mixed the GIbberettic acid. I purchased a small amount and did not get instructions. Thank you.
What's solube fertilizer?
But how did they taste?
Would be interested in quality of radish as far as nutrients.
To which two plants you sprayed gibberellic acid?
very cool! i asume that your leg is feeling better?
was the split from over watering?
Great experiment 99Chemicals, I have a question, What is the composition of the fertilizer?
+Alfred It was 20-20-20 miracle grow fertilizer.
What happens if you add iron into fertilizer and GA - would it be larger and greener ?
Wow dude, you're awesome! It was a very well controlled experiment, if you increased the sampling you could even publish your study.
What would happen if you combined everything compost + giberellic acid + iron + fertilizer? Gigantic mutant radish?
I am wondering the same thing
Everyday u sprayed the gibberellic acid on that specific test subject
How much is the acid??
i suggest u plant at least 5 radishes for each set up esle there might be other factors. 3 is the bare minimum.
No, gibberilic acid is found naturally in plants and should not have any affects on non plant organisms. For the second part, yes you should.
thank you
super video anapuga please
Where exactly did you get the ingredients from? Like the gibberellic acid for example?
+Sydnee Angus Get it from united nuclear
What is the control?
More is less, usig it less cause better grow?
what are the concentrations of your Gibberellic acid, iron sulfate and fertilizer
The thing is: when I did this experiment, I didn't control, or even measure the concentrations. It's a blatant flaw of this experiment and unfortunately there's nothing I can do about now.

Did you make a new gib acid each week? I read it gets innactice if mixed with water after 1week
like it , gone have som fun .. :P
please can you tell me that What is the plant that you have used to test for gibberllic acid
Radish
thank you
thx
Do you have the methodology of exactly how you did the experiment? Such as exact amounts, mixtures for the compost, etc. Could you send it to my email if possible?
What type of soluble fertilizer was used?
It was miracle gro
@@99Chemicals Thank you but which kind of miracle grow please? I would like to buy it.
Where can I order gibberellic acid?
