According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Ontario:
Plant Growth Regulators are chemicals used to modify plant growth, such as increasing branching, suppressing shoot growth, increasing return bloom, removing excess fruit, or altering fruit maturity. Numerous factors affect plant growth regulator performance, including how well the plant absorbs the chemical, tree vigor and age, dose, timing, cultivar, and weather conditions before, during, and after application. Plant growth regulators can be grouped into six classes: compounds related to auxins, gibberellins, gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitors, cytokinins, abscisic acid, and compounds affecting the ethylene status.
