HORMONES
Five major plant hormones are traditionally described:
auxins,
cytokinins,
gibberellins, ethylene, and abscisic acid.
Indole-3-butyric acid aka IBA is a plant hormone in the auxin family and is an ingredient in many commercial horticultural plant rooting products. In connection with cytokinins like kinetin, auxins like IBA can be used to cause the formation of masses of undifferentiated cells called callus. Callus formation is often used as a first step process in micropropagation where the callus cells are then caused to form other tissues such as roots by exposing them to certain hormones like auxins that produce roots. The process of callus to root formation is called indirect organogenesis whereas if roots are formed from the explant directly it is called direct organogenesis.

MEPIQUAT CHLORIDE
This is actually a growth inhibitor. It is sold in Hydro stores in pre-made solutions under various brand names. The idea is that it will stop the plant growth when it's time to
start flowering. Not only does this control the final height (useful if you have a low ceiling problem), but also the plant will start to allocate it's growth resources into bud growth sooner. . The growth is halted (actually, some growth still occurs). the effect you see is that bud size that were usually about 5 weeks old are now bud size at 3 weeks. This gives you larger early buds and as you know, you can only build from there. Then hit the plants with the Benzylaminopurine and the bud growth takes off.

Abscisic acid - ESSENTIALLY
STOPS GROWTH also inhibitor.
Abscisic acid (ABA), despite its name, does not initiate
abscission (shedding) , although in the 1960s when it was named botanists thought that it did. It is synthesized in plastids from carotenoids and diffuses in all directions through vascular tissues and parenchyma. Its principal effect is inhibition of cell growth. ABA increases in developing seeds and promotes dormancy. If leaves experience water stress, ABA amounts increase immediately, causing the stomata to close.
