Gibberellins
Giberellins (also commonly referred to as gibberellins) are a group of natural plant hormones that regulate the growth and development of tomatoes. Among other things, they are responsible for stem elongation, flower development, seed germination, and fruit growth. They work in conjunction with auxins, cytokinins, and other phytohormones. Maintaining a balance between these hormones is crucial for proper plant development.
