About this document

Bolting by Botany Department is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Bolting is a phenomenon in some plants where leaf growth is abundant but internode growth is limited, often due to a deficiency in gibberellins. The application of gibberellic acid can stimulate rapid stem elongation, allowing for floral initiation. In nature, bolting occurs when rosette plants begin to flower and produce sufficient gibberellin levels.
