personally, i only use GA to germinate seeds. i have a GA inhibitor i'm dying to test out (paclobutrazol)
I am not sure I understand the GA for seeds. I did some reading about this and could not find a common scientific logic. Could you explain what you intend to achieve with the GA on seeds?

Some strains will revert to veg faster than others so you maybe ok here. However just to cover your ass starting that new clone to try again would be a smart move.
Oh yea a new clone will be on its way. I kind of thought I might need a few tries since I have never done this before. 1st try would be nice though.

This may just do it and if not your new clone will be nearly ready to go.
Ok, I am switching the lights back to 24/0 for 2 weeks today.

It is really nice to have someone who is willing to give a helpful bit of advice.
